After getting SO VERY CLOSE to being cast on season 8, 9, and 10 of the hit reality TV show, The Biggest Loser, I realized a lot of things about myself. The most important being, how much I desperately want and need this. "This" being a healthy, whole, functional body.

My blog is intended to help me get accountable. Accountable to EVERYONE, family, friends, complete strangers and ultimately MYSELF. I have over 400lbs to loose in order to gain the FABULOUS life I was born to lead!!

I am SO EXCITED, nervous, embarrassed and determined. I will REJOICE with you in my accomplishments and confess to you any "falling off the wagon" I might do. I encourage EVERYONE to get out there and tell your friends about this blog. The more people that read and comment, the more accountable I create for myself! This is one of the HUGE aspects I love about the show. I would NOT have let America down! Now I just have to create my OWN America!! Post your own accomplishments, encouragement, questions, doubts etc. This blog is here for you too! Let's get this ball rolling! WE GOT THIS!!

Day one starts with "Dollar Store Lettuce..." click that red link, and then scroll past this intro. :)

Some SUPER cool things are happening!!

Just wanted to stop by and give you a quick update!! I have gotten down to 514 lbs!! That is over 100lbs down from where I was last January!! My goal is to be under 499 by January 1st!!! GET 'er DONE!!!

I have a LOT on the fire right now, and am SOOOO excited!! I want to start a support group on FB for all of us Biggest Loser Hopefuls (i don't like the term rejects). I have been blessed with the friendship of MANY past BL hopefuls that have, like myself, lost INCREDIBLE amounts of weight ON THEIR OWN!! Now that BL has cast someone (a very dear friend of mine, in fact) that lost 120 lbs ON HER OWN before being cast, I think it's a great time to show people they don't need to wait around and stay fat for TBL!! We can ALL take on our life, without the fear of being turned down for the show. What is your goal anyway?? Is your goal the show? Or is it the weight loss? That is a question you have to ask yourself. If it TRULY is the weight loss, there isn't ANYTHING that is going to stop you, not even a show!!

ANYWAY! I am getting the infrastructure set up for the group. I plan to make it active this week and will start inviting people to join. It will be VERY private. ONLY Biggest Loser peeps will be involved. I will have a couple personal trainers available to us as well. I will create a positive, uplifting, ACCEPTING environment where everyone of us can come, share ideas as to what works and what hasn't. Recipes, exercise, inspiration etc!! I do NOT want to create an anti BL group! There will even be casting advice once that time comes around again. I just want people to understand that THEY CAN start now, and THE WILL succeed!!! :) If you want to be part of it, comment below, and I will make sure to send you a message on how to join. You will need to have a FB page, so let me know how to find you there as well.

I hope you all are WONDERFUL!!!! Be mindful of what you put in your mouth this holiday season, up your workouts, that will help with the extra Holiday calories! Keep these things in mind, and you should stave off any backslides. :)

Love you all, and look for another update very soon! Don't forget to follow me on Facebook. I post there a few times a day!

XOXO
