I pretty much owe First Place my Life!

I was looking at pictures on myspace today and saw these photos.OMG I have never put my old and new pictures by each other. I am forever in debt to first place. Unless of course I gain it back then they owe me.LOL. But i plan on that never happening. Here lately I'm really not sure how I've kept it off. I little more often then I would like to admit...i eat cake at work,and cookies,ice cream..... It's just so good and sugary! I will go through spells where I don't want it and I don't want icing, but i acquire the taste once again.Soon! Doing First Place must of just uped my metabolism. Throughout the entire five years I played volleyball I never lost weight. I ate like a horse, but I worked out, and exercised and it did nothing!Too, not too long ago I found out that my thyroid was low, and I believe that makes you gain too. So that medicine has played a part in keeping it off. I was going to ask everyone to burn any fat pictures they have of me,and too take them of your myspace, but I changed my mind, the more I look at them, the more I want to exercise!So keep them up, their good incentive. Hope you have a great day! Also thank you Lisa for sending my Stein Mart cake to BooMama! And thank you BooMama for putting a link of it on your site! LOTS of people saw it!!!!Thank you!!

Cruisin' in 2 Weeks!!!

Last night was our First Place meeting, and good news has arrived!!!!I lost 6 pounds!!It had to be because of Miss Denise. Thank you for kicking my butt!! A good while before First Place was over last time I completely quit exercising. I know....shame, shame. But I have started back and I feel much better.

According to my Myspace countdown we have 14 days, 14 hours, 30 min, and 40 sec. until we leave for our cruise!LOL!!I am so excited. I am really more excited about school being over.PRAISE THE LORD!!!! I have a lot of work to do in these next two weeks. Please pray that I will get myself together and get everything done.I know I haven't said a lot, but I've GOT to get some work done. Love you all!!!!

Singing Cookies!!!

First I want to thank J for sending this to me!!! I have been looking for this for a long time on You Tube, and now I finally have it.

It's not as bad as it was at first, but when we first started First Place this is what I felt like. I'm that poor tempted woman on the couch and yes when your on First Place cookies really do sing to you!!!!!LOL!!!!



So to all my First Place women out there....keep up the good work, and watch out for the singing cookies!!!!!Love you all!!!!

I'm boring....but 17 pounds lighter!

I'm sorry but I'm just not having a very interesting life right now. (go to school, come home, do more school work, go to bed.....do it all over again) There are a few thing, but once I spill the beans it might be another 14 days before I write something else!!!LOL!!! Thanks for the notice KK!!LOL!!! I really didn't know it had been that long.

We had First Place last night....and God worked a miracle. I lost 6 pounds ( Over 2 weeks. I wasn't there last week.) I just knew I gained about 5 pounds, but I guess not. It was one of those weeks .... I wanted something sweet soooo bad I actually got out the almond bark!!!:0 I know it's shocking!!! And I tried to hide it from my sister. It worked, but I don't advise hiding things from your family!!LOL!!Really! So, so far, with I think 3 weeks left, I have lost 17 pounds! I don't want to toot my own horn, but........Toot!Toot! I'm just kidding! I'm excited.....I can now fit back into my "9th grade jeans"!!!The sad thing is I am back down (a little under) what my drivers licence says......but I've only had them for about 2 1/2 years! I feel 10 times better than I did before, and I am really going to miss it when it's over. I love getting to do the Bible study with the ladies. It's good to be able to be so close to ladies in my church. Y'all are truly a blessing!!!I Love You!!!

And last but not least........ May 1st we are going on a cruise!!!YAY!!!YAY!!! I'm sooo excited, and a little scared, but I'll get over it!! If I get my passport back in time!LOL!! I promise momma after I get done writing this I am going to look for my birth certificate! It will be fun! I am excited about the women's trip. Last year was a lot of fun, and a great get away.

Well I have to go!Pray for me please... I have a midterm tomorrow night 5 o'clock!! And pray for my mom....she's sick!!!Love you all!!!

Valentine's Day

(This was not the cake we had.)


Valentine's Day!!!!This Valentine's Day I was not as tempted by food as I thought I would be, but don't get me wrong.....I was tempted. And kinda gave in!!!....Don't hurt me J.LOL!! Yesterday I went to my dads and ate supper with him, his girlfriend,her mom, her daughter, and her granddaughter.(Did you get all that!!) We decided just to eat in, and dad went to Katy's Katfish to get a chicken coupe!!(is that how you spell it?)If you don't know what that is....it's a big thing of chicken fingers, hush-puppies, and slaw for the whole family. We also had baked potatos with ours. It was good, but the whole time I ate it I felt like DIRT!!!!!!There was a little devil on my left shoulder telling me to go ahead and eat it, I could just work out more today. And besides.....It's Valentine's Day!!On my right shoulder there was a little J (my First Place Leader) telling me...."There's enough carbs in that meal to last you a week!!!!"LOL

Then a giant heart shaped Peanut Butter cake was layed on the table!!!Dad cut everyone a piece. As he handed me the cake I thought about just saying no, but I gave in. And then I had a cup of coffee with it.(that was prob. the best thing I had all night, exchanges wise)L and J, I don't know why I am even going to say this, but Mrs. Black ( I hate not saying people's name, I'm confusing myself) made the cake, and I didn't want to hurt her feelings!!!!I know! I know!!

Anyway, no one has to get on to me. I feel like dirt, but am going to work out more than I usually do today. And I have to now that I've told ya'll. I have worked too hard to lose my 10 pounds, and I am not going to let one meal set me back!!!!

On the up side LOST was awesome last night!!!!I am not even going to try to explain what happened, I would be typing all day. (And you still prob. wouldn't understand it!! Who does? I don't!!!LOL)And my dad sent me flowers!!!How Sweet!!!Love you all!!!!!
