A client of mine sent me this http://www.finishstrongmovie.com/

When your done watching it think to yourself ~
What is something I have never done and I want to do?
What goals do I have in life?
How do I want to achieve them and not complain about it!

Get out do something new, something you want to get better at but like I said don't complain "life if way to short for that"!

Merry Christmas Sunshine's

Awesome Santa likes to have fun too!

My LiveStrong Band is on that means officially in Ironman Training!
My weight lifting program has started today along with my weight going up hehee OK we are at 10 pounds and my paints are getting a little tighter you know when you have to jump off the toilet to get in them and then lay on the bed to zip them up "Just kidding" it's not that bad yet! Give it a week or 2......
I wasn't feeling sick today and I was able to run 3 miles, Pilates and weights! whooohooo I feel good!

This is cool!

This is a truly wonderful thing to do. I just did it and it’s very easy, and I encourage everyone to email and send to everyone you can.

XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING AWESOME!

If you go to this web site,http://www.letssaythanks.com/Home1280.htmlyou can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!!

It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them. This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you. Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say enough thank you's. Thanks for taking to time to support our military!

THANKS XEROX

I can't believe this puking, dizziness, feeling yucky, tummy aches, headache's and yada, yada, yada women doesn't that make you want to have a baby? "Just Kidding"! It will soon be over I hope!

Today was 30 min. on the elliptical then I on to my bike trainer for a little bit! Dan had to change my handle bars, my breaks and little things here and there because it fell off the truck back in September and dragged on the interstate for a short bit, however the feel on the bike is so different now I have to get used to it! I would advise everyone to double check your bike before you go on a road trip or $170.00 later you will have new handle bars and breaks and yada, yada yada a different fit that you have to get used to. However I think that gives me another challenge to suck it up and ride it could be worse I might not have a bike to ride.

Tomorrow I start my weights for Ironman 2009 the Base period.
45 min. Spinning

Have an awesome night!

Something to think about~ Follow your heart, never surrender your dreams. Constantly work towards your goals. Believe in yourself, and always be truthful.

Today's workout was on the Treadmill 30 min. fast walking then almost getting sick so I had to get off. The feeling I'm having is like you just wake up from a long, long night of drinking or for me it would be a sip of something and I would feel like this. Man this is going to be a long 7 months. Photo later today!

This is funny!

We have a due date of August 1, 2009 Ironman is September 13th I’m going to try and keep up with my blog and show photo’s week by week (so if you don’t want to see a tummy and how big I’m getting don’t look on Sunday’s JK :). I will also include my workouts and how much weight I have gained so far 8 pounds they think that is because of my thyroid medication we had to do some adjustments and we will have to my whole pregnancy so much fun!!!!........
