YIPPEEEE!!!!

Yesterday ended week one of the Summer Wellness Program. I lost 4 lbs! YIPPEEEEE!!! And this morning I was one more pound down. Amazing! I have only a few clothes I can fit into, but should be able to fit into my bigger clothes by next week. Most of my clothes I have are size 10's so I have a little while before I get into those. Our challenge this week is:

THREE PART – PLAN, REWARD, SHARE

1. WRITE DOWN your specific plan/goal:
a.Certain Weight? Pant Size? Specific Health Goal? A race?

2. DECIDE how to reward yourself without FOOD!
a.A manicure? A new pair of pants? A vacation? YOU choose, just
NOT food. It need not be costly, but DOES need to be for YOU!

3. SHARE YOUR PLAN!
a. Tell someone on your team about your plan and WHY it’s so important to
you.

Ok, So my goal is to be 136 lbs, although at the end of this, I may lower that. But, I'd be very happy to be this. That's me around a 7/8. I would like to be able to play dodgeball with my family without dying. I would also like to dabble in running. I plan on running a 5K in a month and will make more goals based upon that race. I would love to run the race in Savannah, GA over the bridge in December. I think that would be awesome!

Because I plan on winning the challenge, my prize money will go towards clothes. For my own reward, I also would like some new pots and pans and pretty dishes to eat on. (10 years of marriage and kids have kind of taken a toll on my kitchenware.) I really think when your food looks good, and is presented nicely, you take more time to eat it. I usually shovel, so I'm working on that. I think it would also be cool to take a cooking class. I have heard of these couple classes in Atlanta. That may be a fun anniversary.

There you go... I'm super excited and know this is going to be a challenge, but I already am feeling so much better. Wish me luck. ">
