Are you a warrior?

Happy Wednesday, I know, I know I am a day behind on the weigh in but I had a really cool adventure yesterday and I didn't weigh in. But I will let you know about my crazy day trip soon...I was so tired I didn't even get to download my pictures yet! Ha.

So let me ask you....

ARE YOU A WARRIOR?

Somehow, I was convienced it was a good idea to start training for the 2012 Warrior Dash.  Um, Serena? Joni? How did this happen? Honestly, I think I was so excited to get back to Zumba last week I just agreed to anything Serena said! Ha. Just kidding, I am really excited to start this!  A couple reasons:

• Its muddy!
• Its Fun!
• Its a challenege!
• Time with good friends

See now doesn't that look FUN???

Zumba-I have missed you!

Last night was my first night back to Zumba since I went to TN in June. Man, I have missed it.  I have missed the ladies, the moves, the music and most of all, I have missed how I feel after a good solid hour of moving, punching, kicking and having a blast!

We celebrated a little last night (thanks Serena) myself and another girl, Cassie, have lost good amounts of weight.  It was nice (and a little embrassing) to see the support of fellow Zumba goers!

Next step, personal trainer! Oh Serena in a long, high pitch, naggie voice :)

Have a great Friday!

Week 18 Weigh In and Radom thoughts....

Happy Tuesday, can you believe the 4th of July is over? I cannot. I had an amazing time this weekend with family and friends. I truly love this holiday. Here a few pictures from over the weekend...(which freaks me out as I have never really posted a picture of myself...)

This is me at Kings Garden Vineyard  I am very lucky that we live in wine country...and that I love it!

PBR and I outside of Wagner. They have an amazing brewery.

My sister and I at the parade on the 4th.

This picture is totally for my sister, she loves a patrotic tootsie roll-can't blamer her!

Next up the weekly weigh in.  I cannot believe it when I read the Wii this morning! I actually weighed myself 3 times, just to make sure and triple checked-ha!

Pounds this week: 6

Total pounds: 40

 

Sorry I need to say this:

HOLY CRAP!!!!! 

Ahhhh, so exciting! I actually might cry-I am really proud of myself. Honestly. I have been a little low lately (emotionally) and really needed this. I did. I never thought when I started this I would see that. Wow!

 

I have set another goal-because thats how I roll (did you catch that ryhming?)-by August 7 I want to loose 10 lbs. Making that an even 50 (huh, what, wait a minute did that say 50?). You are probably thinking why that day? Becaue that's when I go to the Speidie Fest and CY is going to be there. HA! 

 

I am happy to report on this Tuesday its going to be a glorious, sunny, fun filled, happy Tuesday! I hope there is something today that makes you feel awesome as I do right now.

(Oh-and I have another little secret I have to ask permission to blog about first :) )

Happy 4th of July

Thank you to all in the military! 

We wouldn't be safe with out you!



Guilt...

Okay, in NY around this time of year the weather is typicall hot and humid- days like today don't really come alone that often becuase it was nice, sunny, and breezy- today I took advantage of that!

I feel guilty but...I sat outside reading my new book. Ahh, I needed a mental break- and to boot I got a kick butt farmers tan!

My view at lunch:

We have a dance competition tomorrow in Rochester and then 4th of July activities the rest of the weekend.

Have a great day!

A wise Art Teacher once quoted...

Today on facebook my high school art teacher put on the news feed:

An old man once said:

          "There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living."

 

Thanks Mrs. C for reminding me of this.

 

Happy Wednesday!

Week 17-Back on Track

Happy Tuesday!

Can you believe its the last week in June! I cannot! The time is flying by. We are so busy that I honestly think that summer will be gone before I have time to enjoy it, if you know what I mean.


This is the first time I have weighed myself since I went to TN, I was a little nervous!  I will not lie! Ha.


Since we ate this:

These are PBR's favorite things: Fried Pickles.  I know sort of gross, but she insisted I try them.  She perfers the spears as you taste more pickles than fry stuff. They were ok-I am not sure I will run out and get them tomorrow but...with a beer, ok.

And these:

I guess you are in the south when Fritters are just placed before you.  I told PBR that I have never had them-she replies "Don't freak out there is corn in them" Ha! So funny-I didn't, but I really appriciated the warning none the less.  They were good-mainly reminded me of an elephant ear you get a fair. But hello they had powdered sugar on them...who can go wrong.

Those two pictures alone you can see why I was a little hesitant to jump on the scale...but I did this morning. Even after a wedding and birthday party this weekend, and I am happy to report:

Pounds this week: 4 (over a few weeks)

Total pounds: 34 (WHAT??!!?!)

Have a great Tuesday!
