Get Fit ContestWell, I have entered the Get Fit contest we have going on here. Had my first meeting yesterday (but the contest does not acutally start until monday). So, monday I will weigh in and will start charting my progress from there. The meeting was crazy. It was at a local gym and had motivational speakers, etc. The crazy thing was there was a whole table with donuts and muffins with icing all over them??? WTH???
I am on a team that has 10 members. You get points for attending various activies (the gym is free on Thursdays, and if you go you get 100 points) and you get one point for each minute of exercise.
My son gets home today from his 3-week trip to Germany (he said if he were rich he would not be coming back as he loved it over there - said he did a 24 hour tour of Paris and that you have not driven a car until you drive in Paris - he said imagine that half the people are drunk and most of them are on mopeds!!).
Anyway, I'll let you guys know how I'm doing so you can cheer me on. My son says he drank so much German beer he needs to lose weight (but I doubt that) but that he wants to get his 6-pack back, so now I have someone to help me (well, imagine having a marine corp book camp officer living in your house....it's gonna kinda be like that....but....I'll be glad LATER, right??? LOL).
Hugs to everyone!

And I bought a DDR (which is a Dance Dance Revolution) for the Wii which I go pick up when I get off work. My daughter had one when she had the XBox and I LOVED IT!!!! I can't wait!!!! Hopefully I can practice before she gets home from UIL competition tonight and may actually be able to beat her in a song or two!!! he he he

Thanks girl! I've been walking, and doing step aerobics on the Wii (I now have all the top scores! he he he), elliptical, dance dance revolution! Whew! And I've been getting up in the mornings and working out for 15-20 minutes too so I can try and get my metabolism revved up for the day! Things are going well! My daughter hasn't been super happy about it....apparently she thinks me cooking healthier is some type of punishment so she's been living on spaghetti-os!

Well, my scale says I only lost 3 pounds this week. I was a little disappointed because I worked out LOTS AND LOTS!!! Over 900 minutes this past week! But, maybe even more will show up next Monday! But, I guess 3 pounds is still good!!

Thanks Heart! Actually, I've only been taking 1/2 a sleeping pill. Hopefully I will soon be able to stop taking them at all as my sleep has improved a lot!
