New Year, New Me!

I made it through the holidays with no problems! The food temptation was great but I over powered it and came through the last of the year with a 60 pound loss! I really thought it would be hard with all the temptation but I set my mind to succeed and came trough with flying colors.

New for this year is I am starting to train to Hoop a half marathon! I am very excited to be apart of this wonderful group of women. The charity is called Hooping for Hope and they provide exercise classes and hula hoops for breast cancer survivor's. It's a great cause to help survivor's get back into exercise and feel good in their body's again! This charity is close to my heart because a close family member is a recent survivor and it is hard to find charity's that focus on the after care and well being of survivor's so I find this to be a amazing program to have and contribute to! We will be hula hooping the Music City Marathon on April 24th here in Nashville.

THis is gonna be a major challenge for me for several reasons but I am excited to be a part of this group and it will help me with my weight-loss goal. I am hoping to be at my goal weight in April so that will be another great milestone, one finishing a marathon and two loosing 150 pounds!

Healthy here I come!!!!! It's gonna be a great 2010!!!!!!

(Also if you would like to make a donation to sponsor my race feel free to contact me, we appreciate all the help we can get, and it's tax deductible!)

  1. I am so proud of you, Zee! You look wonderful. It's really wild: Had our pre surgical class together, surgery on the same day, and the exact same amount of weight to lose. We CAN and WILL do it! I love my hula hoop and I am getting the hang of it! You Rock!
