Week 6...

Well, this weekend wasn't too bad. We had friends come in from out of town and we went out and had a cheat meal at (of all places) the WAFFLE HOUSE! And let me tell you, I was BAD! Then I was at my mom's house on Sunday, and had a piece of cake and the potatoes from dinner had a bunch of butter on them! Yum. So I let my cheat day be a couple of meals over the course of 2 days.

My goal of going to the gym 5-6 times last week was just not to be I don't think! My ankles have been so bad! It has really sucked! When we went out on Saturday night they were so swollen! I wore some platform wedges out which I was sure that I was going to regret. But, oddly enough, Sunday morning my ankles did NOT hurt at ALL! That is too weird!?! Since they are feeling better, I am going to try the BodyAttach class again and see how it goes. So, that is the plan. If they still hurt, then I will just keep trying it until I can complete the whole class! I can only imagine that building up the exercise on my ankles will make them stronger gradually.

Well, Wednesday is the beginning of the 6th week of my BFL challenge. I can't believe I have been on this diet for 6 weeks! And, I have been pretty good. I mean we are all going to have some bad days, but instead of quitting, I have just kept on keeping on. I am notorious for going on a diet and letting 1-2 bad days be so discouraging that I just give up on the diet all together! I am really getting results too! I am going to post some new pics in the next couple of days for those of you who are interested! I know I can be better, though. I am going to really try to regroup myself and finish this challenge with a bang! I am committing to not going out until the end of the challenge (which will be the week of July 4th). And also committing to going to the gym like I am supposed to since my ankles feel so much better! And if for some reason I can't go, I am going to do a video at home (if I can get my DVD player to work)!

I have been conteplating starting to run. I am not sure if I can (ankles) or if I will be dedicated enough to do it, but it is something I am thinking about. We will see.

This week is the official 1/2 way weigh-in for the Biggest Loser Blogger competition. I am sure I prob wont be in the lead this week, but I will be by the end of the competition! I know it! I have been measuring myself and stuff, but I am excited to make my progress "official"! I am also excited to see where I stand in the competition. That is on Wednesday, so I will update you then~!

I hope you all have a great start of the week and finish it off with a bang. I am going to try to do that myself! So here we go....week 6!

If you say you don't think you'll be dedicated enough to do it, then you won't. Just do it! (fellow BFLer--end of Challenge one is this FRIDAY!!)

Keep it up. You know Xango is good for infection and inflammation ;) Just a thought to help with the ankle situation. I went to the gym yesterday, but it was early, I had to pick up dad at the aiport. Keep up the good work. See you tomorrow night at weigh in and OH YEA- I'M GONNA WIN ;)
