Someone Who Isn't In My State or Country

Today's challenge topic is someone that’s not in your state/country. I am guessing what this means is I get to talk about someone not in my state/country. I will blog about the person who is the farthest from me in distance. My friend Hania lives in New Zealand. Her and her husband Kyle were a really big inspiration in the early stages of my relationship with my husband. They came to the US this last summer and we got to spend a few hours with them and their beautiful daughter. It was like we had never been apart. They were so nice and so interested in how we were doing. They took us to dinner, it was just wonderful to be with them again. They also assured us if we ever made it to New Zealand that we have a place to stay! Woot!

I weighed in again today, and guess what, another nearly 3 lbs gone! 2.8 loss today. That is almost six pounds in two weeks! Woot! I think I finally found my sweet spot for intake and burn. =) The fitness today was awesome! jogged/walked more than 4.5 miles. It was awesome! I did pretty well on the intake too, calorie wise at least! lol. Tomorrow is a new day, and hoping to get to the market and get some new fresh veggies. =) I love fall, all the produce here is starting to come off!!

Okay and before I sign off for today, I have to have a bit of a rant here. I am a Biggest Loser fan, I have been watching a few seasons now, but this season finale really irritated me. I was watching and half the people who didn't get a spot on the show were like "my life is over" blah blah blah. UGH! I am like, dude, I have LOST 35 lbs without the biggest loser. It is so frustrating to see all these people who believe that it is their last chance. It isn't. You CAN do it, you just have to set your mind to it and DON'T GIVE UP! Sorry, just had to do that. On the one hand I know that the show is amazing and inspiring, but then on the other hand I can find REAL LIFE people who are just as inspiring as the show, and use them as a realistic example of how weight loss and fitness can really work. =)
