Morning Everyone... just wanted to pop in and say g'morning and congratulate all of you biggesr losers this week!!!
I hope everyone has a great day today!!!
Hello everyone. Just got home from teaching my adult class. Today was a good day here in SK. TOM has arrived but I'm doing good so far. Only 2 more working days left of the week. Woohoo! Haha. I did want to share something I find incredibily exciting. So I have shared with some of you that I work in South Korea at an English Village. Which is basically a school where students visit for 2 day or 3 day programs. It is a tool used to introduce students to learning English and give them real life situations. So we have classes like cooking, science, magic, airplane, restaurant, math, hotel, bank, etc. Well, we had our teachers meeting today to select what classes we will be teaching next month.....and.....I will either be teaching yoga (MTW) and music (TTH), or cooking (pizza toast and cookies) (M-F). Now, I would love to do the yoga because I would basically be exercising all day long for the month of November. But, if I get cooking instead I think it would be fun because I know I can control any craving I would have to want to eat the food. How do I know this? Because 1) I taught in math class next door to cooking class and smelled the food all day long for months and never had any, and 2) because I control what goes in my mouth.
So yeah, I'm super excited of the possibility of teaching a yoga class 8 hours a day, M-W for the month of November. Sorry just realized I'm being repetititve but I am SO SO SO excited!
Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday. It's sleep time for me. XOXO
So yeah, I'm super excited of the possibility of teaching a yoga class 8 hours a day, M-W for the month of November. Sorry just realized I'm being repetititve but I am SO SO SO excited!
We'll keep our fingers crossed that you get the yoga. And bonus points for your attitude. We can control what goes in our mouths......sometime I think I forget this.

I was looking at the results thread and noticed the stats for our team are incorrect, so I p.m.ed Dixied. It says that I'm the red team week 4 biggest loser with 3.8 lbs lost, but I only lost 0.8 that week. Assuming the rest of the stats she had were correct that makes sunnigummi the week 4 biggest loser for our team.

I thought there was something a little off about week 4. The number I had come up with didn't match the "official" ones, but I couldn't figure out the problem. Good catch.
