Q-Munnity Rocks!!

With everything going on....I totally forgot the Biggest Losers are posted all over the web. I mean I realize pics are on there but I totally forgot everyone in the tri-state area was keeping tabs. LOL! Newho..so today I decide to go into Lenny's and get a salad. I get in there and the boy behind the counter starts whispering to other employees. So finally the manager comes right out and ask....are you KMAK, from the biggest loser? I was floored. So we talked a few minutes about diet and exercise and then he gave my salad to me for free!!! I just want to give a shout out to the Q-munnity! You guys rock and thanks for backing all of us up!!!!!

My favorite Candy.."IBUPROFEN"

This morn I woke up late.. the sore muscles are getting better, but as we work out harder there are new muscles laughing at me. I'm eating Ibuprofen just like candy. I'm loading the car with my change of clothes and my daily food and BAM I accidently shut the door and lock my keys inside with car running. Nothing is going my way!! I just broke down and cried like a big old baby and wondered what the heck am I doing to myself?? I'm tired, worn out, somewhat hungry, and just plain aggravated. My little girl woke up to the sound of my tears and come in there and gave me the best pep talk. It's 3:30 in the morn she has to get up for school and she is in there taking care of me!! It was the best feeling! So I sucked it up...she had the extra key to my car. I jumped in and took off! The funny thing is when I arrived at the gym the work out really helped me. I was pumped!! It's all coming together now. Getting use to the new schedule and the new foods! It's just like O Captain My Captain & GI Jane Kelly reminds us of everyday. IT'S A LIFE CHANGE! To hit the goals I want in my life....that is exactly what I have to do. CHANGE MY LIFE!

Granny Got her Groove Back!!

I was so proud of myself this morn!! Yes I did Yes I did.....GRANNY GOT HER GROOVE BACK!! Our 5:00 am workout was the bomb. GI JANE KELLY BOOT CAMP....Stations everyone! The muscle aches have calmed down (still hurting a little) and I rocked it!! I'm wondering how sore I will be after today, but it don't matter 'cuz I'm ready for anything dished out!! Boxing...Jumping Rope....step ups.....lunges....You name it we did it. Nothing easy, but made a person feel good when they accomplished each task. So when you see me walking down the street ask me to get my GROOVE on....I might just surprise you!!

The Bottom 2...Not a Good Feeling!

First I want to thank all of the GUT BUSTERS for voting to keep me in even though it was a fake vote. Thank God for Karson's rule 5A. Everyone was so supportive of me and keeping me in. Even O Captain my Captain spoke well on my behalf. GI Jane Kelly was there in the beginning telling us to breathe. All of this really made me feel good. When it comes right down to it "my team" the GUT BUSTERS just rock!! So with that said.....I am not going to let my team down!! Yes I should be very proud of losing 3lbs in 3 days but that is not good enough!! I have decided...this was NOT a good feeling...no more exuses.....so now IT"S ON!! It is SO ON!! I am going to do whatever it takes...more vegies...more workouts...more sleep...WHATEVER it takes! I do know as the weeks go by it is going to get harder and harder and there is always going to be someone in the bottom two and voted off but I am going to try so hard for that person not to be me! So look out Granny is gonna rock this!!! GET IT GOT IT GOOD!!

PS...To the Food Fighters....Don't Hate Appreciate! PEACE OUT !!

I absolutley love my team!! I think everyone is the best! We all support and push each other harder to be the best, but to really do this right you have to have an outside support system that is flawless. These are the people who take the food away from you. They let you call them at 4:00 am to complain about the muscle aches. They call you all day long to check on you and your menu. They help you go to the grocery and read all the labels!! Spring, Kelsi, Kelbi, Trameka ~ You guys are the best, and even though I am really cranky at times....I know you guys will always be behind me!!!!!

Leafy Greens!!

Tomorrow is the day....our first weigh in!!! I am totally staying with leafy green vegetables and water!!! Todays lunch was a leafy green salad with balsamic vinegar. That vinegar burned going all the way down...HA! I felt it burning the fat! It did burn...but nothing like those cardio workouts we get from O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN & GI JANE! (by the way..that is Kelly's new nick name)

Beating the Toilet this Morning...LOL..I LOST!!

OK...so one of my dreams of being skinny is sitting on the toilet and not having all the blubber fall over the sides of the toilet seat. Well this morning...my dream was just getting on the toilet seat. We are told to drink 60% of our weight in water. So I am floating a boat drinking 144 oz every day. So we have been working out we are sore as you know what...and my Jesus....the clock goes off and I have to roll out of the bed (no jumping out for me) I have to pee so bad!! I literally crawl to the toilet. I just know I am going to pee all over myself. I finally get there and guess what...I can't bend. The muscles in my legs alone are laughing at me. I tried so hard...took me a while but finally got down low enough just to get that morning pee relief. So I figure....by the time I stand up it will be time to just pee again. So I sit there!! LOL!! I did not want to go through that harsh pain again. I eventually did get up I had to go work out....but just to let you know...WORKING OUT...is the only thing that got me off that toilet.

UMMMMM.....LUNCH!!!

So I have now recooped from the morning workout. I have now drank 120 oz of water and its time to eat lunch. Yeah!!! Lunch is your most important meal. According to LT Kelly and Oh Captain My Captain!!! LOL!! Newho...on todays menu.........

2 grilled chicken strips

1 cup green beans

slices of celery and mixed red & yellow peppers to garnish.

I did put mustard on my chicken for a little more flavor.

Believe it or not....I am really full. Between water and the 5 to 6 small meals we are eating daily. UMMMM Gotta Love It!!!!!!

"GUTLESS"is what I wanna be!!

It's 2:30 am...the clock went off its time to pack food, & clothes and kiss the kids goodbye.
3:30 I leave my home only to arrive at gym at 4:45. It's time to get down and dirty!! Brian & Kelly have beaten me to the gym??? OMG what time do these healthy people wake up? I don't think they sleep. LOL!!! Newho....time to work out.....push push push....great job!!! ....and then the hard stuff. What the hell??? Oh well....let's show them what I'm made of...LOL...not much...I'm doing good....I'm doing good...and then them damn backward situps working my triceps. All I felt was P~A~I~N!! Well I worked through it and come to work feeling like a wet noodle.

Shout out to my team members!!!!! You guys rocked this morning way to keep it going!! HOLLA!

U Ask Y....

You ask why I am putting myself through the pleasure and the pain of Memphis Biggest Loser?? It's easy....I'm a granny well...a MIMI but that didn't rhyme with Crazy. LOL...Newho I am 39 years old and have my beautiful first grand child Brenlee Shai. She is 2 months old and I want to be around long enough to see her start first grade, graduate, and get married.

There is another reason....I am single and have been for quite a while. May 1 will be 9 years and I have not even went on a date. Well at first it was cool because I buried myself into the lives of my children, but now they are older and doing their own thing. Simply...I believe I am now ready to date take it slow and maybe even find a soul mate to share my life with. I don't want to grow old by myself.

Last.....I just want to be healthy. I'm not and I know that. Doing Memphis Biggest Loser will reteach me how to eat and show me how to exercise. I do believe we all want to win the big cash prize and the awesome trip, but for me....if I don't win....I would have won in so many other ways.
