Great grocery shopping trip picture!! I love all the fruits and veggies.

Michelle--Love that you actually found a video of herding cats! Made me giggle.

Great job Platoon with kicking the butt-er this great Spring Day.

I ran off and did what I said I would do to start this week off right!!
Cleaned house, walked, yoga done, tracked my food and gulping down water now.
I will make up for it! My butt will be properly sore by the end of the week for not getting my butt-er melted!

I want to thank you ladies for being so nice and making me feel at home, sincerely from my heart. http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/715/heartwml.gif

To show my appreciation i've got another couple comparison photos, my mom found another photo of me... i can't even believe that was me. http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/6874/bleh2c.gif

The new blurry one is from today, i can finally wear my old old retro style leather jacket again without looking ridiculous, well IMO anyway, i know it's blurry, it's just as well because i always look so mad /nasty in pictures even though i am not. I still have some ways to go and will never look like i did but whatever, water under the bridge.

BTW, your posts inspired me to say to **** with my rest day ( was just moping around anyway) so i did my walk and feel better for it.

I know we can all do better myself included, i congratulate each and everyone on there willingness to better themselves and there participation in this collective, I again pledge 4 pounds to Sarge for this week but i am going for 5 as a personal challenge to myself. :devil:

:eek:

I forgot to report my pledge for next week! I apologize Surrogate Sarge! I pledge 3 pounds next week. 230's here I come....dammit!

Now, time to hit that gym hard and reach that mini goal!

I'm certainly no one special rainbow, as you can clearly see, :hug: It's just nice if others can see and realize the possibilities they themselves carry deep inside, how a dummy like me found a way to connect to this realization i'll never know.

Forever greatful to resources like this web site for helping to educate me and for those who chose to share there successes and struggles so freely.

It's nice to be able to fit into clothes that have sat for years and years, the jacket was my Uncles which was given to me after he passed away so it's not just a jacket to me but something that carries memories as well. :)

I really have no idea how to navigate this but I'll give it a shot. I plan to lose 3 lbs this week.

Resolute YOU LOOK GREAT!!

Surrogate sarge don't worry I wasn't thinking I was getting off that easy. I was out running today dont worry :p

New Day!
 

Today I woke up early as planned and did my Turbo Jam 20 minute video...not sure if it was the right one, however...I'm just getting used to all the videos and actually writing down the schedule after I'm done this post. Everyone here is so freaking motivating it's not even funny. I was trying to tell my mom about it and I think you kinda have to be involved to understand. So I don't work tomorrow (well today I guess) until eleven soooo tomorrows checklist:
1.) Vitamins: (I freakin suck at remembering to take them)
2.) Water: (at least 2 L)
3.) Video: Cardio Party and Ab Jam (I looked it up)
4.) Gym: 2.5 mile walk/run
5.) Grocery Shopping: and if I can figure out how to upload pictures I will....of the food of course!
6.) Sleep: 8 hrs? (it's a stretch but worth a goal)


Being that I didn't make a checklist for 3/20 I'll go by the one above and see how I'm doin so far
1.) forgot vitamins....
2.) 1.5L down, .5 to go to make goal
3.) 20 minute Jam complete
4.) didn't have time for the gym, hence short video...
5.) packed healthy lunch and ate healthy out with my family for my brothers birthday dinner...feels good when I make good choices!
6.) slept 5.5 hours (feeling ok though..not to tired or wired)

So that's where I'm at for now folks!

Good Morning Platoon!
Brand new week to make it happen!

MadamB-You are on! No way you are leaving me in the dust for Sarge to get!

Michelle-Tricep dips are great upper body exercise too. Just grab some dumbbells and do some curls, over head presses, shoulder press, rows. Good luck!.

Resolute-You are looking fly in your leather jacket. LOL--did anyway else ever use the word fly back in the day. Awesome job man.

As for me, I have a 3 mile run planned and some leg exercises! Tracking my food and I'm about to go fill up my water bottle now.

Thankyou both, truthfully i would rather not post pictures, i have always been shy and private.

I'm ready to take this fight to the street this week ! All i have to do is stick to the plan.

Have a super nice day everyone.
