Hello Everyone,
This has been a very stressful yet blessed week for me. On last Thursday I found a lump in my left breast. Needless to say I was a wreck all weekend until I could get in to see my doctor and even then I was nervous. I had to undergo a mammogram, ultrasound and a biopsy. I must say that I have never feared for my own life until this week. I have never been so scared in all my life. Thankfully, I am still in God's good favor. My biopsy came back benign. I have what is called a fibroadenoma. I am sharing this with you for a few reasons 1.) we are all family, 2.) this is an outlet for conversation about good health, and 3.)I wanted to give God the glory and remind everyone to get their annual physicals. I feel so blessed and relieved to still be considered a healthy woman. Before I end this entry I must first thank God, Arthur, Jada, Momma, Sommer and even my dad. They truly helped me this past week. They were my rocks when I wanted to crawl into a corner and cry.
Needless to say, I have lost weight this week (not going to say how much). I have worked out more this week but my diet needs some work. I owe $4 to my jar. Everyone have a blessed week and I will see you all on Friday.

Hi everyone,

Ya'll, I am having such a hard time staying away from sweets. I ate red velvet cake at Momma's church on Saturday and I went to Daire Dreme I bought some praline and cream ice cream. I almost forgot, I bought some chocolate ice cream too. I am so shameful.

However, I am really, really ready to redeam myself because I really, really want to win this challenge in August. I have a plan for myself and I want to share......

I have put everyone's name in a clear plastic cup on my desk here at work. Each Monday until the weigh in, I am going to pull someone's name out of the cup. If I eat any sweets during that week, I will mail $25.00, the following Monday, to the name that I pulled. I know this is xtreme, but I need some type of motivation to keep me away from sweets. Plus, I plan on winning the weigh in in August.

Wish me luck.

Have a great week because I plan to have one.

P.S. I forgot to post the name that I pulled this morning.

THE PERSON WHO WILL NOT GET $25.00 FROM ME THIS WEEK IS (Drum Roll)

Energy you are a trip!! I had a pretty good week. I do owe $2 because I just had to have some chips that I know I did not need. What can I say..it's my weakness. But I'm not off the wagon yet..ok I'm just hanging on but I'm sure I will pull myself up. What I have realized is that the weight is not the problem but a result of something more. Now the only thing I have to do is find out what the "something more" is :)

Praise the Lord Nicke! This week was great until we went on vacation. We ate bojangles on the road and I broke down and got fries. My jar is now at $8 or $10, I have to go back and look. Before vacation, I had been counting my points and doing quite well. I walked a few times too, but I want to commit to jogging at least once this week. I can't wait to see you all on Friday!
