Day 10: I reached my goal weight of 145 today. I’m so excited. I can’t wait to go to the gym tomorrow. My focus now will be on toning and reaching my fitness goals. With the pushups, my arms are looking really nice. I had the beginnings of cellulite on my triceps when I began [...]

I’ve been extremely busy this weekend with updates for the Joven website. It’s finished for the most part but there’s always something more to do for a website so it’s never really ever finished. I did blog, even though I didn’t update here. Day 8: Crocheted Butterfly Purse at Joven’s blog. Day 9: Another Joven [...]

Day 7: My air conditioner is working again. I am so happy and grateful for air conditioning in the summer. I spent a lot of time today adding a new product to Joven. I’ll be writing a post about some diet and exercise strategies that I found when developing my weight-loss plan for pear shaped [...]

Day 5: A friend told me that I inspired her to try the 100 pushups challenge. Well, she inspired me to try it again. I only made it to Week 2 last time with a max of 16. Today I started with Week 1, Day 1 for a total of 51 pushups. I spent the [...]

Day 4: I weighed myself this morning and found that I weighed 147 pounds. I only have 2 pounds left to lose in order to reach my goal. Here’s a photo of me (taken today) feeling pretty good about myself. We hiked over 4 miles today. I forgot to mention that I made some diet [...]

Day 3: I blogged at Renegade Scholar about Nathan Sawaya, a Lego artist. © copyright 2010 www.thinking-this.com Lego Talk At Renegade Scholar

Day 2 (of the 30 days of blogging challenge): I watched the movie Parenthood starring Steve Martin as a child. I laughed and laughed at the diarrhea song. I thought it was so cute when Gil’s son Justin rushed the stage in defense of his sister in the school play. Aside from that, however, I [...]
