The Biggest Loser!!!!!

So I came home last night after watching the Suns beat the Lakers, and found a couple of flyers on my apartment door. 1.) Apparently I need to put my fire extinguisher out side of my door for it to be refilled. 2.) My apartment complex is having a Biggest Loser competition sponsored by Pure Fitness.

This was great great news to me. I am already getting back into healthy mode, but a little 6 weeks of competitive tracking and training with a certified trainer doesn't seem like a bad idea to me. Here is the funny thing, I don't care about the prize. I mean a free gym membership for a year is great, but my company already pays for my gym. What I want is the structure, the accountability, and the competition. I am fully getting back in shape for myself, but why can't I have a little bit of fun while doing it?

Initial weigh in is this weekend. I will do the group training there on Mondays, Saturdays, and Sundays, but do my own work out at Lifetime Fitness on Tuesdays-Thursdays, (hey I have to get the company's moneys worth.) But I am so excited to have this just pop up like this. Its funny how when you put a plan into action God can choose to bless it, and present an even better option for you.

Rededicated

So I am going to keep this short and sweet. No excuse for the lapse in time, but also no beating myself up about it. I am back, and I am going to attack this weight thing from the right perspective. I am worth the hard work that its going to take to get where I want to be. So I am just going to do what I known to do in these situations, and that is to fully imerse myself in the project at hand. In this case getting back to being healthy.

Goals for the week: 1.)Recreating my weekly menu to support successful weight loss. 2.) Get into the gym no less than 5 days this week. 3.) Don't settle for second place in my own life.
