24 Things to Always Remember. . .
And One Thing to Never Forget


Your presence is a present to the world.
You're unique and one of a kind.
Your life can be what you want it to be.
Take the days just one at a time.

Count your blessings, not your troubles.
You'll make it through whatever comes along.
Within you are so many answers.
Understand, have courage, be strong.

Don't put limits on yourself.
So many dreams are waiting to be realized.
Decisions are too important to leave to chance.
Reach for your peak, your goal, and your prize.

Nothing wastes more energy than worrying.
The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets.
Don't take things too seriously.
Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets.

Remember that a little love goes a long way.
Remember that a lot . . . goes forever.
Remember that friendship is a wise investment.
Life's treasures are people . . . together.

Realize that it's never too late.
Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
Have health and hope and happiness.
Take the time to wish upon a star.

And don't ever forget . . .
For even a day . . .
How very special you are.....

Two Months on SP

Sunday, March 02, 2008

So today is the start of my third month on SP! YEA I HAVE STAYED WITH IT, which is big for me because normally I would have given up by now. This tells me that I have formed some healthy habits and am making ME a priority again. I have lost 34 lbs since I started, 3 inches off my waist, 2 inches off my hips, 1.75 inches off my chest, 0.75 inches off my thigh, 0.5 inches off my flabby arm, and 0.25 inches around my neck! A total of 8.25 inches, very exciting. SLOW and STEADY wins the race right? Well i'm on my way.

I'm participating a lot in the teams I'm a member of and also participating in their challenges, I find this has helped me stay on track.

I now have copies of all the biggest loser workout DVDs and cant wait to try them, I just hope my tiny living room will be big enough for me to do them in comfortably.

Loosing Motivation

Monday, February 18, 2008

These last couple days i've kinda lost focus. I have brough myself back to center and am going to they gym after work tomorrow. I dont want to throw away all the hard work i've done so far. I still pretty much stayed within my calorie range, but I just lost focus to log in and track my food and got careless. I know I have to stay focused for the long run.
