Hi MJ; congrats on the bike! I love the used sites too. Got some of my furniture that way...

Good on ya for another pound lost. That's so cool you're going into a triatholon. You're no jellybelly, Madam.

LOL! Thanks 2Skinny! I can't wait till my jellybelly turns to abs of steel! I have an apple body, my legs and arms are small in proportion to my belly!! Won't be long before it's gone tho!!
 
Wednesday's Workout

60 min Treadmill = 3.4 miles
&
30 min Elliptical

I am getting much stronger on the Treadmill! I cant wait to test things out on the actual track.

I am off to update my walk/run training mileage.

Will be back later to post more updates!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say hello and for your kind words of support!

Whoo hoo!! Go PINK!!!!!! That's awesome! I knew we'd make a comeback and as you say, 'smash some fat' baby!!
 
I weighed myself this morning, and I am already down 1.2 pounds since Tuesday's weigh in for the challenge!! If I keep this up, I"ll be at least 2 pounds down for next week, but I am hoping for 3 at least!

I just realized that I will be in Hawaii next week! I wonder if they will have a scale??? Should I bring my own in my luggage? LOL

I am going for 9 days, and I decided not to invite anyone, just go alone and work on me! I plan on resting, setting goals, visualizing my future, and bringing lots of books to read that I bought a long time ago, including Skinny Bitch.

I am soooo excited! The hotel has a free fitness center, so I will stay on my game while away.

I'll probably be on the forum a lot in between as I am not much of a sun bather and will be focusing on diet and fitness and will have lots to report. We shall see!!

Back later to update more.

How interesting that you know someone who did a similar trip to Hawaii! Wow, too cool! Only I am hesitant to go hiking all alone in the tropics, there are a lot of homeless ex cons hiding out in Hawaii and I dont want to stumble across one.

I purposely chose the highest populated tourist destination in Hawaii to go to so that I won't be stranded alone in the jungle. LOL I hear it is hard to kidnap fat people tho! HAHA!!!

I might take one trip out to hike, but I am so weirded out by bugs and critters, it will have to be a well traveled path.

I plan on spending most of my time in the ocean, swimming with the fish and coral. That I LOVE!!! It's like jumping into an aquarium.
 
Man I LOVE snorkelling. I thought I would hate it because the idea of fish being near me or touching me scared the crap out of me. But then once I was actually doing it, I loved it!!!! I can't wait to do it again one day.

PS - I hate bugs so much!

LOL Risty! Bugs give me the heebie jeebies!! LOL

Where I am going in Waikiki, there is an enclosed section of beach, with a rock barrier to break the surf and to also keep large ocean inhabitants out, it's so nice because there are tons of fish in this area that are essentially trapped but have plenty of area to swim in. It feels safe and I don't panic that a sea monster is going to take me down into the depths and eat me alive. LOL
 
I notice you have a link at the very bottom for your diary and I was trying to do that too, but I have no idea how! Can you tell me how to do it?

HAHAHA....she was actually a weight loss client as well too. Go figure right!?!? All of us with a couple extra lbs..."need to find ourselves right!" hahah!!!

...Good for you!!! It'll be just like jumping into your aquariums at home!! ...It was so sweet when we went to Cancun...the resort person came out to us late at night as we were walking the beach,...and he gave up 30 little 1/2 palm size sea turtles to release to the ocean!!...I still think about them....sometimes...and I know that I had a tiny part to do in releasing them to nature to embrace themselves and their freedom. :D!

...One above all of them stands out to me...I had let him loose into the water and he floated back...and I picked him up...and he must have thought he was going back to the bucket...cause as I stepped deeper into the ocean...that littlle Mofo...ran to the edge of my fingertips...and JUMPED off!!! :smilielol5:!!!... He said...."FUCK THE BUCKET....I'm FREE BITCH...even if I have to commit suicide!!! hahah!!!"....and he swam happily away!!! :smilielol5:!

....The others were scarred.

...I say,...be like the TURTLE..embrace yourself...and your freedom and SWIM fishie!! SWIM!!!!....:beating:!!!!

...and I can gaurantee you will meet tonssssss of people with your outgoing nature,...when and if you want to! :) I want to take a trip like that one day....it's admirable! I have a friend who has traveled the world all by herself..for months...impressive.

I love the analogy of the sea turtle! You crack me up girl, but I know what you are saying. You may not know what life has to bring, but embrace it and take that leap of faith!! Don't end up in the bucket stuck like chuck! I get it! I will remember that story while I am in Hawaii. Cute!!
 
Thursday's Workout:

60 min Treadmill = 3.0 miles

I was so tired today, didn't want to work out at all! But I did it anyway and I am sooo glad.

Off to add 3 more miles to my ticker!!

I put in 18 miles in one week already! Whoo hoo!! I am soo glad I am starting my training early this year. It's going to pay off come triathlon and half marathon time in Sept/Oct.

Awe, you thought of me and stayed longer??? I love it! We got the fire in us this week!!

Whoo hoo!!! Pink is gonna be the comeback kids! LOL

So glad we both hung in there! Yeahh!!
 
Friday Update:

Feeling good this morning!! I'm down 1.8 pounds since Tuesday's weigh in! Surely I will lose a little more today as I plan on staying the course. So long as I don't blow it on Valentines Day dinner or my first day in Hawaii, which I don't plan to, I will be down potentially 3 pounds by weigh in next Tuesday! That's my goal!!

So nice to see some pay off from all the exercise and diet. I've been working hard over here.
