NEW SEASON OF THE BIGGEST LOSER!!!!!

ok... i'm a nerd. :) but apparently millions of others are too if the show keeps coming back! right now, the new season is recording... and me and Rye are going to sit down in like 30 minutes and begin to watch our favorite show.

now for those of you who don't know, Riley's goal in life is to be the next Bob Harper. he idolizes that guy more than almost anyone else on earth. he LOVES watching this show and trying to get new tips. we LOVE to watch it every week. this last season Rye was in training the whole time so i never got to watch it with him. but i kinda got my stepmom addicted to it. and we would text each other if we weren't together about the episode. point being, i am so thankful that i am able to watch it with Riley this season. it's something most people take for granted... NOT THIS GIRL! at least anymore. every little thing we used to do together that i've had to do without him, i appreciate THAT much more.

so tonight i am inspired/disappointed... a few weeks ago i told you i was getting back on track trying to lose weight... i've been eating better (i'll fully admit to you, my avid blog stalkers) that i have cheated... i have had jello and lasagna... BUT i HAVE gone to the gym AT LEAST 5 or 6 nights a week and everytime i go i run at least a mile, usually bike 7 or 8 miles AND then do some weight lifting and abs... so why is it then, that i've gained like 3 lbs... and DON'T go telling me that muscle weighs more than fat... that may be true... but i DON'T think that is where those 3 lbs has come from. i'm really upset that i've been working out so hard and THIS is what i have to show for it. but i am determined to do better even though Riley is home and will be trying to tempt me with mcdonalds and chinese food... he can suck it! i WILL get smaller!!!!!!!!!

alright... so i'm keeping track of my weight and from now on i will give you a percentage of how much i have lost... or NOT lost.. which better not be the case. when i hit my goal weight.. i would appreciate some lovely gift baskets of strawberries and kiwis and such.. ya know what just make it an edible arrangement.. or some flowers.. gift cards will be accepted as well for some new clothes... but seriously... i am SOOO close within reach but it really is SOO hard to lose the rest... Kat did it, so why can't i... i will. i am determined.. which is why i ran 3 miles this morning.... ya, you're impressed :)
