What a great day to remember. As you may know I am married to a wonderful man and we have a beautiful 3 year-old son that we love so much. How many off you are parent that could relate to this? Ever since my little one was born my DH and felt like we never had a break from him. Sometimes you just need couple time right??? Well this past year in-laws have moved here from Wisconsin. Yipee!!! Now, here and there we had in-laws babysit my little Arman for a few hours while Fred and I enjoy a quite dinner together as a couple, but that’s about all.
Well, on Monday Grandpa came by during the afternoon to see his favorite (only grandchild mind you) grand baby and played with him for an hour. Then out of the blue he ask Arman, do you want to stay at grandpa’s house tonight??? Arman was like YES!!! YES!!! Grandpa house. I was like huh, duh??? OKAY!!! But then this is the first time Arman has stayed overnight anywhere, so I was kind of reserved, but he needs to get used to being away from mommy and daddy right? So I packed his backpack and he was ready to go.
It felt kind of weird not having Arman at home that evening, but It was WONDERFUL!!! Hubby and I got a chance to watch a movie and do things that a couple do (ROMANCE YA”LL) we stayed up late and slept in the next morning. It was great!!! hubby and I went to visit a friend and they were like why are you two so smilley today?? You look like newlyweds. And we told them the story and they were like I want my in-laws here. Then I got a chance to clean my house and go shopping for fabrics to create my window treatments for my dinningroom it was awesome!! But now our baby is back home and the funny thing is that we missed him so much and was so ready to play with him and hug him too. What a day!!!!
Now everything is back to normal. I just finished my step aerobic workout to Christi Taylor’s step sensational and now I am about to work my favorite soap Days of Our Lives. I can’t believe I still watch this show, but it keeps sucking me back in. Do any of you watch days??? If so who is your favorite charactor? I know my new favorite is… I lOVE E.J. Wells, Mr. Dimera himself. He is so bad and cute too with his english/british accent.
Well I hope that you all have a great evening and I will chat later.

Newbies not quite ready for high cardio? Today I just worked out to Denise Austin’s Shrink your female Fat zones which is one of my favorites. This workout is wonderful!! It includes 2 complete 20 minutes workouts that are low-impact and help sculpt and tone your abs, arms, butt, thighs and etc. And, after the workout you feel great and not dead to the world. I forgot how much I loved this DVD ecspecialy when I first started exercising at 225 pounds and now that I am 170 I still love because I can still tone my muscles for the summer months too. You should really dry this if you are looking for something new to add to your existing routine.
Have any of you ever tried this DVD by Denise austin? If so, I would love to get your opinion on it. Was is:
1. Fun
2. Exhausting
3. Or, darn right never buy it again!!
I would love to know.
Otherwise I hope that you had a wondeful day on whatever weight loss plan you are on and I hope that you got up and got moving too!!!
Hugs!!!

A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done.

Hey all,
I love NutriSystem and all of my buddies one the Bulletin Boards!! Hugs and Kisses to you all. You know, I was just added to NS (Nutrisystem) website as on of their success stories and I am so honored and humbled. I am so excited because of all of this I see how many lives that I am inspiring to get healthy and change people physically and mentally. How cool is that? But the best thing is that all of you are inspiring me to stay on track too.
I lost the weight successfuly, however when you lose the weight the maintaince part comes in too. I have struggled and still do as of today. Right know my scale is up 10 pounds again and I am working on getting it back down to 160 AGAIN. Yes us weight loss successes have to maintain the weight too and the exercise can not stop or you can slowly gain back what you lost and I know I do want that to happend. This past week has been wonderful working out on a regular again and seeing the results slowly again. I love my size 8 clothing however, 10 pounds on me can make size 8 super tight to the point where I have to wear my size 10 again. (not that a 10 not a great size, but on me I start to feel uncomfortable again.
So today I wanted to let you all know how much you all inspire me. A fellow member visited my NS profile and let me the sweetest encouragement on my profile:
“I’m here 2 help U drop the last 10 lbs… go go go go go go go go go go go go go go, U can do it ! “
Isn’t that sweet. So to this member Thank you for motivating me and keeping me going. Those 10 pounds will be gone soon!!!
Have a great day!!!

WOW!!! I must stay. I guess I must tell you all that after the New Year NutriSystem and Good Housekeeping Magazine invited me to New York for a photo shoot and a weight loss interview. To my surprize my story would be included in Good Housekeeping’s April issue this year!!! My mouth just hit the floor!!! So, back in January they flew me out to New York, put me in the Rennasaince Hotel that was located right on Time Square!!! My room was awesome because when I opened up the window I was looking at the action there. This was so cool to me because I gal has not been to New York. I saw all of the shops and got a chance to meet with a friend that had moved out there last year and had a blast of a time.

I felt like a celebrity!! I got my nails and hair done and tried on lots of clothes during the photo shoot. I also felt honored to be apart of this article because maybe my story maybe something to motivate someone else who is struggling with their weight like I did and still do from time to time. Here are the pics from the Magazine. To get the full story check out your newsstand today. My story is on pages 161 and 163.
I am the one in the pink cardigan set!!! I still can not believe this you all. I will say this again, who would have imagined in a million years joining a weightloss program, losing the weight, and results of this?? Wow!!
So if you are thinking about losing weight with Nutrisystem do it. It worked for me!!!
