A Married Woman

Its been a very busy week, but I wanted to take a few minutes to write and say officially I am the "Mrs" now. I will post some pics very soon. We had a great time, I ate a few things not WW but made good choices for the most part. The buffets were the best place for me because I could fill up on veggies, salad, and I had some of the best baked fish I have ever tasted! Not sure about my weigh in tomorrow but we will see. Last night we ate at Applebees so that was a great 7 points. Hopefully I will have a loss tomorrow but if not that's ok too. Its been a great week anyways I feel much better not as sick as I had been. Looking forward to starting my work out routine up again, and get to work on my next goal of 25lbs. Brian and I had a discussion and we are going to hold off getting pregnant till I hit my next goal. Well that's it for now more after weigh in tomorrow.

20 LBS GONE!!!

2.6lb loss this week, yeah!! That brings my total loss to 20.6 lbs.
And as an added bonus I found my wedding dress last night. It fits beautifully. Got a Marilyn Monroe thing going on, perfect for a Vegas wedding!!
I have set my next goal for 25 pounds. I am really looking forward to the weather changing I am going to buy a bike to take to the train, ride it the 3.1 miles to work(uphill) and then back again in the afternoon. That would give me a +6 miles ride more if I ride the 1.5 miles to the train from home. I'll start out with 2 days a week and work my way up from there.
Well that's the plan thus far.
I have really been sick and have not been up to working out. We leave Monday morning for Vegas. I have everything planned to a T. Its going to be so fun! A perfect little wedding and added bonus no wedding cake Yea!!!
Enjoy the Ride~~~~~~~~Jena~~~~~~~~~

Still not tired

Of course I watched The Biggest Loser Special Edition tonight. They are having a casting call in Burbank on Saturday, my daughter Amber says I should go. I swear if it wasn't just days away from my wedding and I didn't still have a million and one details to attend to, I would go. That show is something else. I swear it make you want to be there and experience what they are experiencing. But alas I could never just be gone for possibly months! I can barely make it to the gym now! However, there is a woman at my gym named Percita(or A.K.A Peaches in stripper class) that is going to be my Jillian as soon as I have the $ and time to commit to her Percitas's Fitness Challenge I really wanted to join starting the 1st of Feb. but I really have been so sick I didn't feel that I could give her the 110% I know she will expect from me. Now I know that sounds like an excuse but I really have been fighting illness for weeks now, I even was basically sent home by my boss today. I didn't even excercise today because Brian picked me up on his way home, but I did walk the 3 miles to the train Mon. & Tues. and here I am supposed to be asleep and getting much needed rest but I am wide awake!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will walk the 3 miles tommorow though unless I end up feeling really bad again we'll see I know points are good the past few days because I have no appetite. Well i guess I should try to go to sleep, I have to get up in 5 hours UGH. I just have so much on my mind its hard to sleep hope writing helped, till next time ~~JENA~~

Magnanimous

While helping my step daughter with a report on lions last oh August or September I
happen to look up the word Magnanimous, I had heard it before kinda understood its meaning but once I went over and over and over its meaning with Chantelle it really stuck with me. I have a great respect for anyone or anything that can be...Magnanimous. This picture represents a lot to me. On this journey I sometimes feel like the Lion... strong, beautiful, invincible KING of the Jungle! But and there is almost always a but, sometimes I feel like a lamb... not strong not beautiful, not invincible JUST a Lamb. And then that word that one word pops into my head... MAGNANIMOUS adj. 1. generous in forgiving an insult or injury; free from pettiness.
2.showing noble sensibility; high minded.
I think if I strive to be Magnanimous, be forgiving when I insult or injure my journey, if I free myself from being petty. Show Noble Sensibility and try hard to stay high minded, I will achieve so many goals. So many dreams. So many promises to myself. A Lion as fierce as he or she may be, is something that is not bothered by the things that do not matter, that is why it can sit with a lamb and not harm it for it has done nothing but be a lamb. Sometimes we are like a lamb... we are what we are, we fall down we feel unimportant but we can sit with a lion and draw strength from him. My very soon to be Husband is a Leo I am a Pisces. As a "weaker being" I fully appreciate and understand this photo as I see US in it.Although I am not always strong(picses are generally very emotional)like a Leo or lion somehow this picture to me, makes us one and the same.

6 days till Valentines Day. Here comes the Bride.
Enjoy the Ride~jena
