Jo is COMING BACK.............

Wow!! It has been such a LOT time since I have blog, but FitWit has been in my thoughts. ...I am glad to start camp again. I ran out of excuses and need to finish this journey.....

The last couple of weeks have been the HARDEST for me....I lost my father and I was Daddy's Little Girl! My daughter suffers from asthma and had a BAD attack as this is the first time that she has experienced death. She is still coughing or should I say literally barking and doctors don't know the cause. We have been to the ER 3 times and over 10 dr appointments. She has been pumped with steroids and told to rest and as a result she has gained weight.....with all this going on...I have allowed FOOD to control me and started emotionally eating. Cupcakes were my friend (so I thought) until I stepped on the scale last night at Weight Watchers. I realized that when you are sick you go to the doctor, when you are hungry you eat......when you need to lose weight and get in better shape then you go to WW and FITWIT!!! I know that FitWit works and I sent Josh an email and stated that I am ready to commit. I NEED YOUR HELP FITWIT!!! My weight has been up and down and I realize that I can't do this alone and I need the "family' to push me once again. I really want to hit my goal by the end of the year.............I have to get this weight off!! I want to be here to raise my daughter and see her develop into the young lady that I am raising her to be. Diamond is doing VERY well in school. She got a scholarship to stay at her school last year. She won the Student of the Year, Most Mannered Girl, Citizenship, and Principal Honor Roll(ALL A's). Despite her missing her last 13 of 15 days of school. Her teacher came to visit and brighten up her day and she was able to return on the last 2 days of school.

My Mom "Ammi" has lost over 100lbs and doing GREAT!!!! She has joined the gym and doing water aerobics several times a week. You will see her this summer walking the track and we strive to get Diamond in better shape.

I am nervous about starting camp since it has been such a LONG time!! I know that my fitness level is at a -10 when I worked so hard ans doing well. Once you have started FitWit and compare then to others....you will realize that they are 2nd to NONE!! I hired a trainer for a short period of time and when to several small group classes.....I feel that it was more about $$ and not my goal of getting in shape.....That is ALL IN THE PAST NOW and not it time to work and get into this small dress size by my cruise in a few short weeks.

Depending on a preset dr appt for Diamond on Tuesday, I will see you guys on Thursday!!!
