Wholey cow .... When I posted last I hadn't weighed in for a week, I just weighed in this morning at the gym at 179!!!!! OMG you don't even know how freakin awesome that is for me!!!

That is 25lbs total since Aug. 28th, 2006!!!!

I will post measurements tomorrow! Now if that isn't motivation to get off my ass and really try hard .... I don't know what is!!!!

Ok it was brought to my attention that I haven't posted here in a while .... I am not trying to ignore ya .... just got a bunch of stuff to do. Both kids are now in Softball & Baseball and my son just added football too.

Well my fitness is well getting better, I went through a month of downer time for some strange reason. I am pulling out of it but am still not sure where it came from?!?!?!!? I am now in the 8th week of Challenge #3. Down to 183lbs. I know I have been bummed out because of the tendonitus thing ... it is still buggin me! I haven't lifted upperbody in a freaking month ... its killin me.

I have a cruise to go on in less than a month and I am NO WHERE close to where I wanted to be for it.

I am so affraid that I am gonna lose the muscle in my upperbody it's insane! I will be updating my website this week ... it is also behind a wee bit.

Hello hello ...

I just wanted to pop in and tell you that I am doing great on my journey to health and weight loss. As you know I started this journey August 28th 2006 at 204 lbs. I weighed in this past weekend at 184!!! I have lost 20 lbs, 20.1 total inches, and 7.5% body fat! I am so excited and happy that I am finally not wearing the big baggie shirts that I used to wear to hide the fat. I need to buy some new pants though ... these are fallin off and don't flatter my tush anymore.

I am not stopping there ... I have about 20 more pounds to shed and I would love to reach the 15% or less BF%. I want to get down and sexy by 2008 so I can possibly compete in a figure competition.

Oh speaking of that ... I am in need of a good trainer that will help me get to that goal! I would like someone that will be able to help with nutrition as well. I need someone that will be serious and wont charge me an arm and a leg too ... I am serious about making this change and hitting that goal!

There's your update!

UPDATE! UPDATE! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

heehee Hey everyone just wanted to say that I am still working on my commitment.

We are still making items ... but have taken a small break to see if we can get more donations.

I have a list of businesses that I will check out thursday. My team grew a bit too ... my 3rd member finally committed and joined the team. YEAH!

I have received $120 in donations, discounts on our beads, a tons of moral support.

Does anyone have any suggestions on businesses that would like to help support the ONLY Bakersfield team???

We walk 4 miles this saturday!

I've done it ... I committed to walking for Breast Cancer! Yup and im a little scared about the $$ part of the commitment. In order to participate in Sept. I have to raise a minumum of $1800!!! That's alot of money but if I can get enough help from my friends I will make it! The walk will take place in Los Angeles in Sept.

I am also building another personal Breast Cancer Site that I will be putting everyone's name on that donates. If you are a business and you would like to have me put up a link ... I would love to do that in appriciation for your donation!! Believage~N~Cleavage!! click here to check out my personal page ... you can donate there or you can also donate at the link below!

Do you own a shoe store ... or know someone that does? My team will be in need of good walking shoes for this event. We will be walking 40 miles in 2 days!!!

OH AND JUST SO YOU KNOW MY TEAM IS THE ONLY TEAM IN BAKERSFIELD PARTICIPATING ... SO COME ON BAKO LET'S SHOW THEM HOW WE DO IT!!!!!

My Official Breast Cancer Walk Page

Thank you so much for your support!

I am so excited that I have registered in the 2 day walk for Breast Cancer this Sept. I have never done this type of thing before so im scared but excited all at once.

I have put together a team of 5 friends and we each need to raise $1800 which is $9000 total. Thats alot of money and I am worried about reaching that goal! My team each have a creative talent and we will be making things to help raise the money. However, we also need to get donations and sponsors to reach our goal!

I am building a web site (to be done this week), and you will be able to see who we area and what we are doing. You will be able to donate on the site, buy any of the crafts that we have made and leave us encouraging words too.

I will have a "SPONSOR" page that I will be more than happy to place your name or your company name, address, and link to your website.

I am looking for a shoe place that would be interested in giving us shoes for a donation .... we will need to have good shoes for this walk. I will make sure that a link for sure is put on my SPONSOR page.

Thank  You so much for your help and inspiration,

Jodi (team name in progress)

Hey hey hey ... im still here and still pluggin along! I thought I would update you on how I am doing.

I have lost another inch around my pooch belly! And 1/2 in at my belly button! I am down to 193 too.

My goal for this challenge to break that darn 190 mark! I have cut out dairy for this week to see if it will help with  a bloating issue that i am having! I can feel my muscles but they are still hidden a bit!

I just posted that I am looking for a workout partner too ... so if ya wanna be serious about gettin in shape ... I would love a workout partner. I go to InShape City ... normally about 5am. I am married so I am not looking for a hook-up ... just someone that is serious about seeing results.

Hi it's been a while since I posted in here sorry bout that.

I finished Challenge 1 and did pretty good. I lost 10lbs, 6.4% Body Fat, and 8 overall total inches! I can do cardio for 25 min without needing my inhaler now too!

I still have a lot to lose and a ways to go but I started Challenge 2 on January 1st!

Well the first week I spent my first week at Camp Keep with the my son. I didn't see a gym however, I did 2 hikes a day some were 1, 2, and 3 hours long. I climbed a 750' mountain too.

The food was totally off plan, but if I didn't eat it I would have starved. I didn't eat my normal 6 meals I only got in 3 a day. So that was tuff. I didn't take my vitamines or fat loss pills all week either.

Well cheers to Monday .... that will be a complete on plan start for me!

Just got back from Camp Keep with my son. A whole week! It was fun ... crazy .... a ton of walking on hikes ..... but fun. I feel like my legs are gonna fall off.

We learned some crazy songs and I took a grip of pictures.

But I am sooooooo glad to be back home!
