For someone who lives through other people's blogs & Facebooks posts, I sure haven't done a very good job for the last five months in keeping people up to date on MY life! Maybe that's because there are occasions when I view my life as a Groundhogs Day kind of world. Get up, work out, go to work, come home, play ref/mom/wife/police, go to bed. Sleep & repeat.
Nonetheless --- I wanted to tell whoever might still be reading this about my latest battle of the bulge. In October, I joined up temporarily at the Sports Academy here in North Logan & took part in their 12 week weight loss competition. I got up at 5:30 every morning to have an intense one hour workout with a trainer & about 6 other tough ladies. We were a very close group & I absolutely loved working out with them! The competition ended on January 15th, and I placed 10th out of 40 contestants for % of weight loss.
Although I didn't even come close to winning - it really helped me to form the habits that I'll need to continue on. I lost 30 pounds on it and about that many inches total off my body. Working out is something that I get a real "high" from & have found that it suits my addictive personality quite well!

I will pinky swear to make a great big 'ol posting of my world, my kids, my schmoopy --- all in the next ... week or so! Ha!

Awesome girl. Keep up the good work! (I wish I felt that way about exercise, I have yet to feel a "high" from it, but you post gives me hope that it's possible.)
