My Story...

I have struggled with my weight and body image for a long time and I have tried diets, exercise videos, DVD's, drinks, pills...the works! Nothing stuck!

In 2008 I joined Weight Watchers and things went well, I lost 10 lbs quickly, but as soon as I got off track I gained it back and lost it again over and over as I went off and on the plan.

In July 2009 I joined Gold's Gym, began working with a trainer and attended the gym on my own on a semi-regular basis.

This past Saturday, January 30, 2010 I signed up for the gym's 12 week challenge to as Emeril says, "Kick it up a notch" and get serious about changing my body for the better. Over the next 12 weeks I will be following the weight watchers plan for my nutrition needs and working out regularly at the gym to reach my goal and WIN the challenge!

I will journal my progress and I encourage anyone that has made a commitment in 2010 to work on a better you; whether it be weight loss, weight gain, muscle strength, or simply living healthier lifestyle, that you JOIN ME post your progress on this blog and TOGETHER we will support, motivate and encourage one another through it all!

I only have one rule...Keep it positive! :)

DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY!

DON'T WORRY, BE HAPPY!
IT TAKES LESS ENERGY TO SMILE THAN IT DOES TO FROWN.

Yesterday I had a change in my schedule so I was able to hit the gym!  Tonight it's Zumba and I am hoping to get there earlier so that I can workout on weights and cardio before class...hopefully I can keep up during the class! 

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Tomorrow is my birthday! Yea! I am not planning on celebrating until Saturday, so who knows of a low calorie cake or dessert I can make that won't blow my points?  I know angel food is always a good choice, any other ideas?

  1. Haven't tried this yet, but it's a weight watchers recipe.

    1 can diet soda (any kind)
    1 box chocolate cake mix

    Mix and bake according to package instructions (don't add any of the other ingredients like eggs, oil,...etc).

    Refrigerate to cool. Once it's completely cooled, top with whipped topping (use light or fat free). It's supposed to be very fudgy and delicious! ----Raena
