Wow, it's been a long time!!  Sorry about that!  The time has really flown by.  We had a great trip to WI to see ~t and the fam.  While we were there, BFF's daughter got married.  It was a beautiful wedding and a great time.  

You already know that I started doing Body for Life in January.  It's been a really good experience for me and I've lost 35 pounds and gained a lot of strength & tone, not to mention confidence.  This really has been the summer when I face my fears and do stuff I've never done.  

Monday I continued along that vein by ending a 100 Pushup Challenge that I heard about from my "little friends" (Belle's name for my Bodyforlife-tracker. com buddies).  Over 7 weeks I worked 3 days a week on pushups.  I started with 30 in a row on my 1st try.  Last Friday I did 272 pushups spread out in 9 sets, the last one being 70 consecutive.  Here's my "final exam" on Monday - to do 100 Push-ups.  





So there ya go!

I miss you terribly. This was the coolest thing EVER. And I am so disappointed that when you were home some girl got married so I couldn't spend more time with you to hear about your awesome journey. Start spillin' it!!!

My mini-goal of cleaning out my cupboards (achieved) seems miniscule to this...I am VERY impressed!! You got GUNS!

Love you much...J

Well, that confirms it. You are nuts. But you are a buff nut, and not in a rut, so it's all good.

Admiring the persistence you put into your blog and detailed information you
offer. It's good to come across a blog every once in a while that isn't the same unwanted rehashed material.
Fantastic read! I've bookmarked your site and I'm adding your RSS
feeds to my Google account.

of course like your web-site but you need to take a look at
the spelling on quite a few of your posts. Many of them
are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to inform the truth on the other hand I'll certainly come again again.
