I'm dying to know what this "thing" is. We are in "off the record". Lol

I'm late too...:I have no excuse except it was Sunday and I just wasn't online at all yesterday. Hope you had an awesome awesome birthday pea brain. Love you!!!!

The challenge in escaping the trap of nicotine addiction is not so much in quitting smoking....but in remaining a non smoker. The only way this is done is to never take another puff....not one. Pledge to do that every day and you will be successful. Congrats and welcome!!

I'm here!!

hugs and prayers for you both!

Congratulations!!

NOPE!!

Missed it too. Trip to Colorado was canceled so that blew all my plan to stop for visits. Bride and groom pic on Facebook is adorable

GREAT POST BOO!!!!!

GIRL...you should be loud and proud about it. HUGE accomplishment! Soooooo proud of you!!! xoxoxo

I really don't know how I afforded to smoke. I'm always broke! Then again....my money goes to gyms, gym clothes, races, sneakers and healthy food...and I wouldn't want it any other way

Awwwww. Thank you guys!! Your encouragement and kind words help keep me going! Xo

keep going TAC!!!

So..........yes...I quit smoking...lost 70 lbs..big transformation all around. Mind, body, spirit in alignment. Well..80 Percent anyway. But from November to February I lost my oomph. It happens. My weight had plateaued (actually I gained 10 back) and even though I was still exercising 5 days a week...I cheated way too much in the kitchen..and it was starting to show. I don't think so....I worked too damn hard! So..............it was time to leave the old and begin the new. I started with a personal trainer....and boy oh boy....he is whipping me into shape fast!! I can't believe it. I workout every day (skipping a day here and there) and each workout is extremely intense. My trainer though....he's been in the business for many years and he truly is the best! He makes it fun and he's so encouraging and calls me a "beast" which I love (anyone else would be insulted...not me) I have always been intimidated by trainers and I was with him at first...the only reason I have him is because he's a personal friend and offered to show me a few things. Now we are "workout partners". He works along side of me so I don't pay him to do it. He actually retired from doing training because he was sick of the excuses people made and hated training people who didn't take their health and fitness seriously. The lack of commitment drove him crazy. He told me if he had 20 like me, he would have stayed in the biz. That was the best compliment he could give me. He introduced me the other day to a friend of his at the gym as his "project"..lol..then turned to me and said.."I hope that didn't offend you" I was like are you kidding??? Loved it. He just enjoys watching me grow and improve myself. He likes watching my confidence soar almost daily and he's also been talking to me about self worth and making me believe I can do anything I set my mind to. I'm lucky to have such a friend!! so watch out peeps...there really is NOOOOO stopping babs now. love you all and keep moving! xoxoxoxo

Well it had better be cleared up by the time I get there!! LOL
