Gearing up for another challenge starting 5/25.Working on my meals and getting my ubwo/abs down. Leg workouts will consist mostly of leg lifts, etc... Working with a broken bone is challenging but I'm looking forward to the challenge. I'm working on my packet from my first challenge. I really want to send this off before 5/25 so I can start this new challenge fresh. I want to leave the garbage behind and really focus...May 11th
Monday morning...life is crazy. This ankle is really starting to mentally get the better of me. With all this weight, will it heal ok? What if I can never run again? All of these thoughts are swirling in my head. Feeling overwhelmed and concerned. But - at the end of the day - if I never run again, I can still walk. I can still powerwalk - it will just take time.Being patient was something I NEVER have be...May 8th
Today is my co-worker's wake. I'm feeling so sad today...she was so young and full of life...it's really difficult to wrap my head around the fact that she won't be coming back.I'll go at lunch to get an emergency protein bar for the drive as I won't be able to have dinner. 5/8 - NUTRITION 8:00 - M1 - Whole wheat bagel (230) - 3/4 C. egg beaters (120) - forgot the...Day 128
I DID IT! I finished 18 weeks!!!!Did I lose HUGE amounts of physical weight? No, just about 13 pounds.This transformation wasn't about losing physical weight for me...I had many challenges.- I broke my ankle- I went through a health scare with my heart- I went through a health scare with my husband- I went through a health scare with my son- I binged- I didn't workout because of my ankle / mental blocksWhat I did lose was immense...Day 127
Well - follow up with the doctor did not go as I expected it to go. Looks like I really did a number on my ankle. The hairline fracture has now opened up to a full break. The doctor said I was an eyelash short of having surgery to put a screw in my bone to hold it together. He told me that for the next 4 weeks I am to only walk when absolutely necessary...to wear my frankenboot and to keep my foot up. This is exactly what I intend to do...I ...Day 126
Phone conference last night w/ our Chicago group was great! I'm really looking forward to all of this Marty time :) Nothing puts a smile on my face like a fabulous MARTY HUG!Ankle is swollen & sore today. Thank goodness I'm not beginning my challenge #2 until 5/25. I see a few benefits here. 1) With Clara's help I'm getting my eating under control and will have it DOWN PAT by 5/25.2) My ankle will (ho...Day 125
I can't believe it's almost over already (18 weeks).I've determined I need to get my ankle checked out. I was supposed to go back for a follow-up and didn't. Now, it's hurting and swollen...I'm thinking that it never healed properly and that not wearing my boot has caused further damage....not too smart on my part.5/4 - NUTRITION 8:00 - M1 - Whole wheat bagel (230) - 3/4...Day 122

First I want to praise Jesus...thank you for giving me the experiences from last night...Yesterday I was again confronted with my fear...the fear of being visible - my fear of relationships with other men. This time I couldn't sweep this under the rug...this time it was too late to run back into my shell and hide...this was happening today whether I wanted it or not...I called my husaband...it was time to talk. We'd spend 10 yea...Feeling the click...
I'm feeling that lightness in my heart and in my step. I feel that smile on my face and the love pulsating from my heart. I feel happy...I mean REALLY happy. I am being the change. My family is changing...eating better...changing our introverted habits...changing our attitudes about food. My son AJ is changing...he ran a 5K and felt the taste of victory for the first time in his life. Here is a picture of him cr...Day 121
God works in mysterious ways...Yesterday I was bummed...my husband & I had gone over our finances and discovered that getting to Denver was going to prove to be too much for our budget. I was bitter...angry...I posted a blog I wasn't proud of and that served to fuel this anger. But then, I remember something Jerome told me - to pray about it to see the answers... So, I ended up taking the blog down and sitting in quiet conte...Day 120
Felt a little frustrated this morning. Money is tight at home and Denver is looking more and more difficult. I'll pray about it - see what path GOD puts me on.Lord...Make me a channel of your peace...Too blessed to be stressed!Eating clean - feeling lean - not being mean - can't wait to be SEEN!SPIRITUAL : I thanked GOD this morning for the abundance he continually shows me in my life. I asked GOD to show me the way and ta...removed blog
After doing some more thinking I've decided to remove this blog. It was serving nothing except fueling my frustration and anger....Day 119
Feeling really good this morning as I hit the gym for the first time in 6 weeks. Awkward at first but then things came back to me much like riding a bike. Walked on the treadmill fat burning setting. Running is out for me right now until I'm fully healed - hopefully soon!Today I'm struggling with being frustrated with someone. This particular person is not a bad person...they just are doing things with the right intentions...My fear of being VISIBLE
Coach Stoney sent me a message today which touched my heart. I shared with him a fear that I had and how Norma, Marty, my husband and GOD have helped me to realize what I must do. I wanted to share this with you. My intention is to help anyone else out there who may have this same fear...The fear of being VISIBLE. Yesterday I GOT TOgether with Marty and we discussed some things about my tr...Day 118
Yesterday was an amazing day. I got to meet Marty & Norma for dinner. So much happened...so many plans...such break throughs...it was one of those days you write down in your journal as a day where your life took a turn for the better.I'll have to process this a little more and then I'll blog on this. I'm just too blessed to be stressed! Eating clean - feeling lean - ...Day 116
FREEDAY didn't quite work out like I planned it. Maybe it's because I DIDN'T PLAN it...sorry Clara. I'll do better next free day.Today I was back on the exercise horse. I did the recumbant bike for the first time. While it was easy on my ankle - I didn't feel like I got the best workout in the world. I did 25 minutes on the interval setting...it wasn't bad..just not what I was USED to before the injury. Progres...Day 115 - FREE DAY

I listened to last night's radio broadcast this morning. It was funny...my hand couldn't keep up writing as fast as the ideas were flowing... Bill and Coach talked about the biggest question on our packets: As a Transformation Champion, how would you carry the BE THE CHANGE message forward? I had read this question before...in fact, Shari (aspiemom2) and I had just talked about it last night. About 2 minutes into the broad...floorance
