January 03 Biggest Loser Million Pound MatchUp ~~~~WEEK ONE~~~~Here we all are. New year, new you mindset. We have followed a few seasons of 'The Biggest Loser' but never watched the full season. Jericho and I have been saying, "I need to lose weight." "We need to get the Gazelle in the house." These are just passing comments and on we go, probably to eat something.
Last January we even went to visit family in Illinois and our purpose (besides seeing family and friends) was to go to Chicago to apply for 'The Biggest Loser.' We wanted to be on the show as a team! We had a great visit and were ready to go to Chicago the next day for the auditions. We were at my niece's home. Her good friend called to tell my niece that her 1 1/2 year old son had choked on a toy and died. Her friend wanted and needed my niece. I told her I would stay to help with her four kids so she could fly to her friend's house on the east coast. She flew out early the next morning, our dream of auditioning for
 'The Biggest Loser' with her. And now, here it is a whole year later and some added pounds, too. We sat down to watch 'The Biggest Loser.' I saw the contests and here I am along with Jericho. I can't wait to meet all of you, hear your stories, share inspiration and praise and help one another to a better and healthier life. Please come back often. Support is one of the strategies to use. We have our partners sure. But me personally, I need all the friends that are in the same boat to talk to also. ~PEACE~K
 Starting weight

 WEEK TWO One week has almost passed. I keep remembering something I read or saw on TV somewhere a couple of weeks ago. A woman was telling about her weight loss journey. When asked what was the final straw so to say, her comment was, "I don't know. Something just clicked." How could it bethat simple? As I think more about it, I am starting to think it is that simple. As I said before I have to think about what, why, when, where and how I feel after I eat it.
  I was sorry to see the 'brown team'' go home. I wish them all the best in their continuing journey to lose weight. I think the "orange team "is my least favorite team. That mom made negative comments about another team. Losing weight is hard enough without negative people wishing you bad luck.
I had a challenging week. I have severe arthritis in my left knee and it was acting up this week for a few days. I could barely put any weight on it making it painful to walk. It was my birthday on January 8 and we didn't even make a cake. Let's all work hard this week, think before we eat something, watch portion size and get our asses up and move ~PEACE~K
