Good things come to those who wait

Earlier I wrote about our car breaking down to the tune of $1800. Kelley also had to turn down a job because the pay was very low. Her CD player in her car died as well. Things seemed to be piling up. We persevered, and guess what happened? Kelley got a great job that she starts tomorrow that is a big jump in pay from her last job! We got the car fixed and we are still fine financially even before Kelley starts her job. God came through and blessed us in our moment of need. My work related stresses are dwindling, as well. If you are facing rough times, remember: pray and persevere! You can make it through!

So Close to My Goal Weight

I am so freaking proud of the work I have done over the past three weeks. I started working out with Jillian Michaels Slimdown Program and am now almost to my goal weight. The last time I weighed in at this amount was May 30th. That was back when I was living by myself and taking care of the house b

The Game of Weight Loss

You have lost 15.9lbs since joining CalorieKing in January 2009. In the past three months you have lost 6.2lbs which equals, on average, 2.1lbs per month. If you can keep losing weight at this rate, you can reach your goal weight by February 2010.

It is so encouraging that the month listed whe

Never Give Up

I just completed reading the book titled, Never Give Up! by Joyce Meyer. This book was certainly motivational. Times get hard and you need to have someone encourage you to not quit. You don't gain anything by starting or quitting only if you finish your goal. I am determined in life to never give u

House Divided

It is the time again. It is time for the rivalry game between Michigan and THE Ohio State University. Despite how the season has gone for our teams this is still a big game. DJ hopes that the Buckeyes will come out flat. I know my team will not take this lightly. We want an outright Big 10 Championship. I believe our defense will show up. The Buckeye offense just needs to not make big mistakes. Saturday will be fun. Let's go Bucks!

Jillian Michaels

I am so glad that I lost .4 lbs this past week. It is mainly due to Jillian Michaels kicking my butt. She is a professional trainer from the Biggest Loser. ( I started watching that show this season. I enjoy it. I find it motivating and inspirational let alone being informative.)

I have felt i

New challenges

Life is always throwing new challenges at you. Kelley's car broke down 1.5 miles from our house on a rainy night. We walked home, got it towed, and are looking at $1800 bill for a broken transmission. Our tenants are going to be 3 weeks late on rent as well. Combine that with working midnight shifts (9pm to 7am) and sleeping through much of the day - that makes daytime errands much more difficult to complete. We are surviving, however, and trying to look at the positive. Kelley has another job interview and my job is getting much easier to deal with.
