and my birthday present to myself?? i've lost another 4 pounds - down 52. YAY!! three months out, just got back from teaching an exercise class where i whipped them into a frenzy and when i got home i got on the scale and received my "gift". So happy!

i've been watching the blogs and commenting here or there and i have to say, i am so proud of everyone on here for being so open and honest with their journey. the support that everyone gives - albeit sometimes in the form of tough love is truly from the heart and is what we all need in order to be successful.

Thank you all for helping me get through this journey - it has been relatively painless but your stories helped in the few rough patches.

keep up the great everyone!

    Happy birthday, Steve! 50 was one of the best years of my life! That year, I met and married my beloved husband and got a new job that raised the arc of my career ever since.

    What kind of exercise class are you teaching? I'd love to hear about that.

    ann2, my class is an hour. 2 sessions of hard cardio (spinning and treadmill work about 10 minutes each starting and then after first session of weights) and then lifting (light weights and lots of reps) ... finished with about 5-10 minutes of abs (planks and core), pushups/squats, stretching and band work. i usually sweat about a gallon. If there is too much chatter we work harder. Its a tough class. The more weight i lose, the harder it gets ... not necessarily something my class appreciates ... it's good for them though (i keep reminding them)
