proud momma bear :)

i'm so proud of some people in my life right now doing just amazing things.

~my momma and her BFF katy who have started training for a 5k. 

if ya know my mom even in the LEAST bit, i betcha know she absolutely DETESTS running. yep, that lady can burn 12,344 calories vacuuming and cleaning the house, but she does not like forced aerobic activity. 

that being SAID, they run/walk three days a week and are working up to do the Jingle Bell run, I believe. 

I think my mom is onto one of the reasons I like to run. cute work out clothes/shoes and a dad/husband who is much more likely to purchase these if we actually use them. ;)



~my sweet friend who is 39 weeks pregnant and preparing for her c-section next week!

not only does she have her adorbs toddler to chase around all day, but she is going in for her second c-section next week. she is nervous, scared and it sure doesn't sound fun, but she is such a strong woman and I am praying for the healthy delivery of baby boy J and the healing of momma :) 

(looking good lady! :)

~my sunday morning Weight Watcher's meeting ladies.



We have been having our Sunday morning meeting for about 2 1/2 months now. Today the 15ish of them who regularly attend hit their 250th pound lost since our little meeting began. for those of you who have never struggled with food, eating issues etc. this might sound silly. but it can be just as all-consuming as drug and alcohol addictions.

not only have they combined to lose almost a quarter of a TON of body fat, one of my fav ladies ;) hit a big milestone in her weight loss. I got the honor of weighing her, seeing her HUGE smile and then hearing her tell me about how she can now shop at "regular stores" and just not the stores for fat people.

Could you imagine how life changing that would be?! silly and minute for some people, but really. imagine getting that control over your life back. and being able to get some cute work-out pants at Target :)

~and I mean really. who i am kidding? i would be lying if i said i didn't feel proud of my accomplishment from this weekend.



say hello to the newest Starbucks Gold Card Member. that means I have spent an absurd amount of money and calories on an absurd amount of shots of espresso.

:)

bring it on week, i got a pretty awesome posse behind me :)
