I failed... I failed bad. I was planning to start my success to weight loss and got sick. Lost my voice for 4 days, coughing, headaches, sore... you name it I felt it.
So - since today I simply have the runny nose, I will start Insanity (New Me Special). I have already tracked my food diary here feel free to follow me. Tonight when I get home I will do the Fit Test (25 minutes of INSANE workout) and treadmill: personal trainer level 1 (30 minutes.)
There will be a photo, of all my glory, on the post tomorrow about how awful it was working out when all your body wants is sleep ;-)
I know my weight this morning was 134.6 the goal by January 20 is to be at 125.0. I think I can, I think I can.
*Mind you it isn't so much the number but the visual effect I am going for. The number is for those monitoring. IF I don't make it then you can gage me based on the before and after photo. I will only post a photo tomorrow and on each Fit Test Day: Dec. 10, Dec. 26, Jan. 7, Jan. 20th. Then on Jan 21st I will put both Day 1 & Day 63 on one post so you can comment your heart out.
Please motivate me... I will need it. Turkey day is Thursday and that is MY ALL TIME FAVORITE HOLIDAY - I get to eat ALL day!!!! Luckily my buddy JO made me sign up for a 5k Turkey Trot in Edmond so that will allow me to eat a 2nd helping of taters and gravy!
See y'all later!
This blog will guide readers through my world and allow them to connect why I am 'Awakening the Silence' about who I am.

If you could ask God anything....
I was asked this question on Saturday. "If you could ask God anything, what would you ask?"
I almost started to cry. I had always though it would be about Tim and I being parents, but when I was asked that. I immediately went with my sister. I would ask God why she is in so much pain, and why I can't take it from her.
We are not super close, yet we aren't completely separate either. Her pain is still my pain and I hate that she is dealing with so much. She has so many things going for her but with the pain she is in I know it has to be hard every day to simply walk. Her back pain is so completely heartbreaking. God I know you can hold her in your hands and I pray everyday you do so. Even if for a moment, ease her pain.
A lot of people are asking when Tim and I will have a baby... and honestly I am not 100% sure if I am ready to be Momma. I love Aunt Rina!
Yet, here are those people in the world who may not be able to have a child and I am healthy as a horse in that department. How unfair is that? So, God why?
I would love to take these pains from people and carry them as my own. I would love to say give them to me.
A friend of mine was telling me how she would love to be a seragate for women who can't have children because she had an easy pregnancy and delivery. The admiration I had for her was stunning. I wanted to hug her and congratulate her for being so selfless. Where I am honestly selfish.
But this is what choked me up.
I know God has a plan for everyone. We may see the dark of it now, but once it is finished there is a great light. It takes great faith to hold fast to this promise and it scares me to think I may not be able to. Or I may fall short.
I was told I have a lot to overcome before I am finished. I have no idea what it is but I hope I cope with it the way my sister has. She is so happy all the time, and when she is sad it doesn't seem to last for long (on the exterior). I am beyond proud of her faith, her resilience to the evil, and her power to believe in life. God my question is now, Will I be like that?
This song just happened to pop into my head - sounds about right with the emotions I have.

Warrior Dash Goal
Warrior Dash 2013 - May 18th
I have 6 months to get from weighing 134.6 to 125.0. My cousin and I made a bet that on the next Warrior Dash we are able to do so wearing only shorts and a sports bra. EEK!
I have to be honest I have let go of the awesome bod I was getting. I need to get back on track. My goal is to run 3-4 miles at least 4 times a week, until Jan 1st. Then for the next 5 months run and start Insanity back up.
So, I want to get from that photo to something like this.
But being honest something close to this again would be awesome...
