Stupid counter on left was not working so i removed it..

I did a marathon on Sunday..2 hrs of outside jogging(with weights) and biking up 6 hills..I did the bike route 3 X in a row and man I felt it!

The jogging with weights came after and WOW it was brutal..

Yesterday in 27 K winds i did the route(bike) 2X it was awful and I'll never do it again. I was blown sideways into oncoming traffic(thankfull car stopped and saw me)

Anyways I am down 12 pounds now!

The muscle gained played tricks with the scale, i have been 1 away from half way(10 pounds) for a  few days now because of muscle gained..

But the marathon and eating only fruits and so on eventually brought the weight down to below 10,I am now at 12 pounds lost!!!

I am thrilled and i only have 8 more to go to meet my 1st goal of 20 lost by end of this month!

WOW I am really doing this lol!

Thanks all for your support I could not have done this alone..

I am down,5 pounds in 8 days!! WHOOHOO!!

Yeah yeah i know more then 2 lbs a week,is not healthy but I am doing this all by strenuous and frequent excercise,and seriously eating nothing, but healthy fruits veggies and snacking on many small meals(fruits and veggies) and no full meals..

SO there ya have it thank you to all of you I could not do this without you!

I am installing a counter on the left to mark my progress and of course will be here too ;-)

I cannot thank two individuals enough..

It is simply not possible..

2 people and they know who they are,have been riding my back side and emailing(and calling) to see how I am doing on this diet.

Not letting up,not letting me GIVE up and listening to me whine about how hard it is..

I past a mark where previous day i had stopped,on my bike route..

It was all up hill in the lowest(highest?) hardest gear on my bike..The previous day i couldn't do it,I had to stop and sit before continuing.

yesterday I past it today i will try to go all the way up the hill..

I also did a hundred sit ups, instead of the previous 70,because it "hurt" all in an effert to make my support systems proud and push myself..

I am doing very well(diet and excercise) and have lsot 2 lbs!(this is while on the time of month where weight is usually gained he,he!)

I cannot thank these two enough because before now no one cared and held me accountable and i gave up..

I am determined but most of all these two, are determined to see me do it..

I love you both and thank you does not say enough,

This road is long and hard,and sometimes it is unbearable..But with you two picking me up when I fall,I KNOW I can do it this time!

These two deserve to be publically known so here's to  Raven and Jason..

May you get the credit and appreciation and thanks you deserve from me and the rest of CS..
You 2 are fantastic and the reason I am still doing this!

Thank you!

Ok so after trying(and failing) many many diets...I have decided that since motivation (and accountability) are strengths with me(if i have someone counting on or holding me to my word i will do it)

I decided to make a bet with my daughters(my oldest 2)

I have asked friends and family before to hold me accountable to my excercising and dieting but no one ever does..SO I have a new plan.

I bet my girls I would lose 20 lbs by the 30 of this month...OR I would have to give them $40..(20 each)

They agreed(duh lol!) and we are ON..I have jogged already this morning and walked with 2 heavy grocery bags,for 3 miles,and am drinking water(i detest water) and eating cottage cheese and we are ON..

Anyone wanna encourage me? Please do so! i NEED it! LOL!
