Weigh-in: Yesterday, gained 1.2 pounds (not a true gain...already down it and more today...pms gain)

Today's workout: 60 minutes treadmill 4.03 miles and 695 calories burned. I can now jog the whole 60 minutes, not straight of course, but getting stronger and stronger. I break every 10 minutes just to drink some water and then I get started again. Feels good. Still need to lose 25 pounds, but I am still totally in the game. Hope you all are well?

Friday Workout IN. 60 minutes treadmill (661 calories)

I now jog 15 minutes straight...stop blow nose, drink water or stretch and back to another 15 minutes until I get to 60 minutes. The last 5 minutes today were he**, but I was glad when I finished.

Tomorrow after Megan's soccer game at 930am, I am going to spread pine straw at the pool and do things over there until I have to go to baseball at 130pm. After baseball if the pool is not done, I will go back over there. Fun, fun fun.

Tuesday workout IN. Just finished 45 minutes jogging on the treadmill. (486 calories) I feel really good. I do have a vein on my one leg that was bothering me when I started. I stopped, took 2 baby aspirin and got back to working out. It stopped hurting and now it feels fine (maybe it is all in my head lol) Or maybe it was because I was thinking of MOM and her veins.
Hey Mike maybe now you can start working out J/K
Love you guys. Need to go make dinner. Love, JO

this is us at the Lincoln memorial! in dc we went to like all the memorials! we went to the national mall the national monument and some relay cool museums. i hope to see some of you at Anna's first Communion! i miss you all to much. please visit me. me and some friends caught a fish yesterday! it almost died! me and my friend walked to an ice cream place.

Week 27 weigh-in. I lost 3.2 pounds today. So I lost the .6 from two weeks ago, the 2.2 pounds from last week and .4 more. Yeah me. I had a good week after I had 2 days of food fits. Last week Monday and Tuesday, I ate out of control. I hadnt done that in awhile. I then got right back on track. So glad I didnt waste a whole week eating badly. So now I am shooting for .6 to get my 25 pound charm. I am hoping to lose 1.6 or more to move me into another weight class. I love thinking of myself as a wrestler.
Today I will workout. I will post later. Hope you all are well? love, JoJo

Workout IN. I did 40 minutes today. Again almost all jogging. I am really sore right now. Tomorrow I may need to take it slower. I have to be at Matthew's school from 11:15-12:15. Longest hour of my life I am sure. I hope to get my workout in before going, but not sure if that will happen or not.
Tomorrow Matthew starts his rollerhockey tournament. He has a game at 530pm and then he has baseball from 7:30-9pm. Then a 930am roller hockey game, batting cages from 1-2 and game at 3pm. Sunday he has rollerhockey at 7am, 1130am and 145 pm. (the last game is if they are in the finals. Christine will run the 4X800 relay on Saturday in the Bojangles Relays. I hope I can sneak over there and see her run at 2pm. Megan has no soccer this weekend, woohoo.
So that is my weekend. Hope you all have a good weekend. Love, JoJo

Workout IN. I did 60 minutes on the treadmill. It was over 4 miles and 621 calories. I jogged about 52 minutes of the 60 minutes. I feel really good NOW that I am done. I was thinking "why am I doing this" when I was working out. I really love working out, not sure why I dont make a point of getting it in each day.
I hope Ruth is having a great time. It looks like the weather in DC is beautiful. Can't wait to hear about her trip. Wish she have time to come here. Love you all, JoJo

Michael, Ann has had many fine moments over the years,
but I really believe she outdid herself. Click here and

Long weekend, first big gain. I gained 2.2 pounds. I didnt drink hardly any water while I was gone. Left for Charleston, SC. , Friday around 12:45 and returned home last night about 615pm. I feel like all we did was eat meals with the team, watch soccer and sleep....and lots of driving in the van.
This week I will get back to eating, drinking and working out. Last week was crazy.
Have a safe trip to DC, Ruth. Give the Pope a hug and kiss for me. Love, JoJo

Week 25. Today I had a slight gain of .6. I have been watching the scale all week and it wasnt moving even with all my working out. My gut started hurting last night and today most of the day I had a stomach ache and now I have a headache. I realized this morning after I weighed in, I couldnt remember the last time I had a BM (Hanlon dinner talk) Well, I had a week's worth of them now. I have the feeling this gain is not a true gain and will be gone as fast as it came. So onward and downward.
Hope you made it home safe Ruth? I checked on your flight today and it looks like you got on the plane late and it landed about 11 minutes late. Have a great week everyone. Love, Jo

Sunday workout, 30 minutes treadmill.

4 minutes walking 6 jogging, 4 minutes walking, 6 jogging, 4 minutes walking, 6 jogging. (312 calories)

Workout in. I did 60 minutes (580 calories and over 4 miles) It was a good workout. Now to shower and relax.

Marty and the kids are going to the last Carolina Hurricanes game. They need to win to be in the playoffs. Should be a good game. I plan to fix myself something to eat and relax. I have about 380 pool invoices to do. Fun, I know.

Hope you all have a great weekend. Love, JoJo

Wednesday workout in. 40 minutes treadmill (405 calories) Lots more jogging than walking. My walking pace is now 3.9/4.0 anything above 4.0 is jogging. I jog at 4.0-4.4. The first 30 minutes were intense, the last 10 minutes, I went ahead and started at 3.6 walking to 4.0-4.5 jogging. Tomorrow I think I will start slower. I think I am going too fast again. I still have weight to lose so I plan to slow down as to not get hurt. Reminder to self, you are still FAT but getting thinner.

By the way, the girls and I took our measurements today. Christine's thickest part of her arm is 8 1/2 inches LOL My wrists are thin and 6 1/2 inches. She was bummed that Megan's boobs are bigger (sorry for the male readers) It was quite fun. We will retake our measurements May 2nd, one month from now. I am already down many inches all over. Got more inches to go.

My new motto:
Success is the sum of small efforts,repeated day in and day out.

My old motto:
There is no such thing as last.
In every race,
there is an invisible crowd of
thousands behind you who didnt
have the guts to start.

Tuesday workout in. 30 minutes of walking/jogging. More jogging than walking. I had a pool board meeting so I couldnt go longer. Tomorrow, I will try and go longer. Taking it easy for Spring Break here. Take care, JoJo
