I’m still in that limbo period where I’m still not done with Provo, but I haven’t quite yet moved to Ogden yet. Haven’t made a whole lot of progress for awhile, so I need to get that in gear. I’ve got some good stuff to look forward to though, hence the “looking to the future” title of this entry. I definitely have quite the road in front of me, but I’m looking forward to it. I know it’ll be tough, but I’m ready for the challenge. It’s time to kick it back into gear! Getting on the Biggest Loser would still be nice don’t get me wrong, lol…but if wishes were fishes, we’d all swim away!
I was watching Biggest Loser today and there were a few moments that I thought were worth mentioning. There was a guy who almost got on the show from Ogden! He looked way familiar. Turns out he’s a friend of a friend of my sister’s. I think he was a fairly regular Maceys customer too. He and his mom were chosen as the “12 team” that didn’t make it on the show initially, but were later given a chance to get on. In tonights episode they were told if they had lost more percentage of weight than the person who had lost the smallest percentage, they would get on the show. This guy had lost 30 and his mom had lost 45, so neither of them got on the ranch. I thought that was totally lame of the show to basically say, “Here are some new people for the show…just kidding!” Sad, but I wish them well! I got a status update on the guy, and I guess he’s up to sixty pounds lost now, which is awesome. It’s TOUGH to lose weight at home, so it’s cool that he’s been working on doing it. Small world, huh? Hopefully this doesn’t hinder MY chances, lol. Both of us being from Ogden and all, lol.
The other part of the show that stood out to me was when Moses was running on the treadmill and was talking with Jillian. He said he just didn’t like doing the treadmill, and wanting to be enjoying the exercise he was doing, so he was more prone to do it. He wanted to go back to some boxing, and Jillian obliged. I think that’s a lesson we all need to learn. Yeah it’s important to do the “typical stuff” like running on a treadmill, but we also have to be able to do something we ENJOY! No one wants to do something they don’t enjoy doing. My friend Taylor has said that he’s willing to teach us (probably me and my siblings) some stuff about fighting (kid’s a ninja!), so I’m really looking forward to that in the near future. It looks to be fun and effective on the Biggest Loser, and I’m hoping to be able to transfer that over to my life.
So anyway! I’m excited for the future, whatever it holds. I’m also excited for my iPAD 2 that I just ordered in the mail!!! Should be good. Smiley face.
