D-Day

I have butterfly's in my stomach and am so nervous for today! I invite everyone to come to Trader Ed's in Hyannis Tonight at 7pm! The final weigh-in is here!
So many people to thank!
Cape Cod fitness-
Heather Crosby
Paul Crosby
Bunny Jones
Dan Mahoney
You have all been instrumental in keeping me focused on my workouts!
Every member at Cape Cod fitness!
Tracy, Tom, Rosanne, Alanna, Steve, Bethany, Melissa, Nina, Paul, Tim, Harry, Amy, and Greg
You guys are the best!
To my Fierce competitor
Thank you for forcing me to take a hard look at myself and give 110% everyday!
Thanks to everyone who watched the videos and checked my blog- if you are challenging yourself to shed those lbs yourself...good luck on your own journey! Thanks to Donna, Lynn, Joe, Cj and everyone on Facebook who checked in with me and rooted me on throughout this last 12 weeks!

Even if I don't win, I look and feel better in my clothes, and I know that it takes a village of support to drive yourself to that place where you are strong enough (mentally, and physically) to succeed at anything you set out to accomplish! Thank you to my village!

Where has the time gone?

I cannot believe that this contest has been going on for more than 8 weeks, and the end of the contest is in sight! I have a week and half to get it together and lose as much weight as I can. I once again had a rough weekend at a family party...pizza, potato salad, and chocolate truffle-why!!!!!!
I do this to myself every time! I lose weight, I feel good, I feel as if I can a indulge a bit, I go off the deep end, back to square one! I must break this cycle!!!!

Crunch time

I must keep focused. 2 more weigh in's. 2 more chances to make things count.

Join us for the final weigh in at Trader Ed's May 29th at 7pm...music and fun for all!

I am a prisoner!

Last night my baby turned 9 years old! So to celebrate Kenzie's Birthday she chose to go to Hibachi. It is my all time favorite dinner! I was so excited to go but then I realized I had little choice for menu selections. I did well ordered some tuna and had a salad and water...all while practically drooling over the kids fried rice and butter filled shrimp and steak. Hubby had sake and beer, everyone was laughing and enjoying the show. They all had a great time!
Me- I felt like a detainee at Guantanamo Bay!
Actually I think they had more food choices then me...I did it though. 3 More weeks to final weigh in...I can do this!

Fad diets

So we are just a few weeks away from the final weigh in. Crunch time. My activity level has certainly quadrupled that is for sure! I am trying to nip away at all those extra lbs, but man it is tough
I was laughing at all the fad diets that are on ivillage right now

Copy and paste the link

If not I will give you a synopsis:

The Burrito diet, The bacon diet...you get the picture. It made me laugh, yet still question the validity, "Hey it worked for those people"!

Oh well, it was worth a thought, guess I will go back to eating my dry chicken...
