Weeks one and two

The first two weeks of the Biggest Loser Program have gone well.  I lost 4 pounds the first week.  This week I started the meal plan.  I may not lose weight on it, but I sure do love having someone cook me yummy, healthy food. 

My trainer, Mike, is much more reasonable than my old trainer Corey.  Still, it is interesting how a 23 year-old man has no concept of the life of a 42 year old working mom and wife.  He wants us all to get in a second workout each day.  When exactly would that take place?  I don't sleep at night, I'm exhausted in the morning, and I'm running around like a crazy person at work.  He doesn't get it.

Anyway, here's hoping the good weight loss continues!

Starting over

Here is is, almost two years to the date after my first attempt at the "Biggest Loser" program.  I survived the first experience, did ok on my own for a few months, and then hurt my foot in June 2011, about a year after I graduated from the first program.  With my foot injured, I could barely walk--let alone work-out--for several months.  And what did I do instead?  Eat.  And sit on my butt playing computer games.  I also started a very high-stress job about the same time I hurt my foot.  And how did I handle the stress?  By eating some more.

So, fat and surely not fabulous, I am starting over.  Hopefully for the last time this time.  Follow along and you shall see!

P.S.  Corey is NOT my trainer this go round :-)
