See these kids right here? OK well you can't really because I have blurred the photo. The point is I have to remind myself, this is why I do what I do. I see these kids when I pop into there classroom, when we have special events planned, if I need to speak at a confirmation meeting - but for th...

That’s a random title if I ever saw one! I just liked the way it sounded and wanted to post something real quick since it’s been a while. Things have been extremely busy, so I have neglected blogging for a while. I finally have things under control, I think, and will be able to blog agai...

HEY MONDAY NITE FOTOS ARE UP I am so not writing about my weigh in today - that alone should tell you it wasn't too good.

I am full of stress - so much so I believe I threw up in the middle of the night because of it. It was just weird. My stomach is slightly sore this morning but nothing major. I hate any kind of confrontation - I go out of my way to avoid it. I know a lot of people are like that. Well I am just talki...

Reflecting on the Week Another week and another positive weight loss experience. AWESOME! This time I lost 3.6 lbs. That’s perfectly in line with my monthly goal of 15 to 20 lbs. So far this month I have lost a little over 12 lbs. This past week was a weird one. Why? Well, because I felt as if...

First Time Ever, Major Milestone I managed to stay on the treadmill at a good pace for 60 minutes last night. That is a first in my lifetime. I have always wanted to say that I could jog, or run, for a full hour. Now I can. I knew I could get it if I pushed myself. Last week I was running outside an...

Reflecting on the Week Another week down and another few pounds lost. This week I lost 2.9 lbs, which puts me at 318.4 lbs. I’ll take that, as long as I have a loss and continue to feel great I can stay motivated. Last week I was feeling a bit sluggish, but now I am rocking it. I lost 6 lbs la...
