A Little Bit About Me
I am a well rounded person that loves people, most especially family and friends. I am easy going, fun to be around. I am very sensitive. I have learned to try and put "me" first, that took me a long time to learn as the needs of others often came before my own. This enables me to be a happier person and in turn I am able to take care of my family and friends. I am a wife and a mother of three beautiful children; a boy and two girls.
I have been trying to lose weight since my late twenties, after the birth of my first two kids. I have been yo-yo dieting ever since trying everything under the sun. I had successes, but not too long afterwards the weight would eventually creep back on.
I started my weight loss journey in January of 2006. At that time I had 46 pounds to lose. I lost 29 of those 46. I was so ecstatic as I had not been under 150 pounds in I can't tell you how long, and I actually made it to 140 pounds. Because I was feeling so good, I wasn't as careful or as on plan as I should have been so I put back on 17 of the 29 pounds I lost after a year. So here I am in June of 2009 (that's when I started again) ready to get back to my lifestyle change because Weight Watchers really works as long as you stay on plan. I don't know why I veered off into the wrong direction because I never felt hungry or deprived while following the plan. But I'm back, and it's okay that I fell off the wagon because I'm on it again.
I look forward to getting to know many of you, and as always, thanks for stopping by. :-)

Truvia Prize Pack
I almost forgot to share what I got from Truvia! I probably should take a picture, but oh well. :-D
I answered a survey and my name was picked from a drawing. Truvia sent me a prize pack. I got a recyclable (sp?) tote, a water bottle, 2 boxes of truvia flavored drink mixes, truvia sugar packes and lastly a container of their new table sugar. Pretty cool!

Salsa on the treadmill....
I LOVE Spanish music - give me a good salsa or merengue any day! Naturally, I have a lot of this music on my ipod and well while doing my 5 minute warmup on the treadmill I can't help but break into dancing salsa! I probably look ridiculous, but I'm at home so I don't care! LOL! Needless to say, I ROCKED my 3 mile run today and I'm feeling sweaty, sticky, out of breath and completely exhilarated. 'Nuff said. :-D

Why do I stop running?
I feel so great when I do it, and feel so exhilarated when a run is complete. So why do I stop? I haven't run since the beginning of May and sadly let a medical issue be my excuse/crutch for not running. I was in the habit of running a minimum of 3 times a week and went down to zero, zilch, nada.
Today is the first day I ran again, and I ROCKED it! Yeah, my time has been better than it was today, but since not running in May I still managed to average an 11.45 pace, and for me

Truvia
I completed a survey for Truvia some time last month (I NEVER FILL OUT SURVEYS CAUSE I NEVER WIN ANYTHING), and guess what? I won! LOL! I'm excited so I had to share with all of you. :-D I'm supposed to receive some sort of prize pack in the mail; have no idea what is in the prize pack. I am excite

Back in the saddle.
Got the all clear from my doctor, so I went out for a run this morning. I'm not going to lie. It was TOUGH. I promised myself I would take it easy and do a walk run since I haven't run in some time. And that's what I did. But I felt like I struggled. I don't want to say that running has been easy for me because it hasn't. But I certainly had a comfort level when I was running consistently. I did not have that comfort level today. I walked more than I ran, and I had to stop for water which is

- Thanks for the comment Jeannie. I just can't take anymore negativity. There is so much to be grateful for and I need to embrace the good things, let go of the bad, and make good choices for me. The rest will fall into place. We can both do it!

- Thanks for the comment Jeannie! I think sometimes we just don't like to come to the logical/right decision by ourselves and need to hear it from someone else. :-)

- Thank you! It was a great run, I impressed myself! :) I had a Zune but invested in an iPod Nano just so I could get Nike+, it was totally worth it for me. I love it! I found an inexpensive refurbished Nano on amazon.com.
