Brag Post...

Usually I brag about my kids.
Today I brag about me and my husband.
I started working out regularly about 3 months ago. After I hurt my hand I slowed down a bit. Even though I couldn't go to Yoga or lift weights I still could do cardio. After Chris went to the doctor (for various reasons) he decided he needed to get serious about getting healthy. Once May hit we were both going to the gym everyday. Sometimes we would go twice a day. We cut out all (most) of the crap out of our diet. We even quit drinking alcohol. Soon the pounds began to melt off. Both of us noticed the board at the gym for Fitlinx. Fitlinx is a program that we use to track our progress. They show the top 10 gym members in 6 different categories for each month. Chris and I were determined to make the board. Looking at that board everyday at the gym made me so competitive. Competition is a great motivator.
Well today is the first of the month and May's board is up.
Here's I rank.
I made the top 10 in 5 out of 6 categories. Not only did I make the top 10, I ranked number third 3 times and number 1 twice. I would of ranked in the 6th category, but that was in weight lifting. I had to slow that down while my hand healed. I know I will get it next month.
Chris made the board in 2 out of 6 categories for males. I don't remember where he ranked in each category. But I do know we both worked our butts off (literally) to make it on the board. So next time you see us, don't forget to tell us how good we look!



Here I am in front of the board.



The pink ones are for the females. As you can see there are 6, my name is on 5 of those suckers! Maybe if you click on the photo you can see my name in print.
