12 week Challenge

It's been a while since I have updated and I have to admit that I have totally failed at this weight loss thing.  However, the one good thing about trying to loose weight is that you can pick up and start over again at anytime.  So that is what I'm doing, starting over!
24/7 announced at the beginning of the year that they would be doing a 12 week challenge with the grand prize being a dream Vaca. for two, so I was like "I'm in".  The only initial downside was that we had to wait about 3 weeks to weigh in and start.  Well I'm no fool and I know that eventually you are gonna it a plateau so it seemed silly to start(and loose wight that wouldn't count in the "game") before the weigh in and risk hitting that plateau in the middle of the contest.  So I have waited three weeks to get started and today was the big day.  I went in a weight...NOT GOOD, I weight +2 lbs then my starting weight back in Dec.!!!  So NOT GOOD!  oh, well it's a new day!
One of the advantages of this challenge is that we could get a Personal Trainer for dirt cheap.  So I asked the guy for a woman, but I needed her to be tough and to push me!  So he gave me a Cop!!!  I met her today and it's fair to say she kicked my butt!  It's also fair to say that while I was hurting beyond belief that I was also loving it!  I told Josh the other day that I hope I'm so sore that I can't sit to pee, LOL and I pretty much think that will be the case.  I think she is just what I need to finally get me going and help me to finally loose this weight, even if I don't win the contest!  I know I won't be to my goal in 12 weeks, but I hope to have the tools to help me get to that goal and I know that I will be closer to that goal!
