So I said I'd join in this fun and then had two issues:  back injury and laziness (not gonna lie!).  My back injury has finally improved enough for me to get back to it, but 5 am is just so-o-o early!!  So I only did the Shred one day last week.

Today I made myself get out of bed and do it. So tomorrow I will pay the price, but it will feel so good!  However, I got on the scale and had gained 1.3 lbs, the same 1.3 lbs that I had lost last week...ugh!

My friends and co-workers say they can see a difference when they look at me. I got two comments just yesterday that I'm looking good.  So the scale isn't telling the whole story.  For that I am very pleased.

I haven't had a chance to read all of the blogs and everyone's profiles yet.  But I'll be checking those out this week.  Hope all is going well with my fellow Knotties!!

    I am 37 years old and live in Moline, IL (the Quad Cities) where I work in Human Resources. Matt and I have been together since September 2007, he proposed in December 2008, and we will be married on May 1, 2010.  Matt has started back to college to get a bachelor's in education so he can follow his dream of teaching.

    I have been more then 50 pounds overweight for about 10 years now.  I will not be thin...ever.  And I don't have a problem with being a plus-sized bride.  But for my wedding day, I'd like to slim down my hips and tummy and tighten up my arms & shoulders.  I've already lost 20 lbs since July 2009. But now I'd like to lose an additional 30 lbs by May 1.  Tall order, but I think the Shred will help me reach my goal.

    Matt is a big guy and we fell in love with each other the way we are now, so neither one of us is motivated by the other to do this.  We each are working to find a way to motivate ourselves to do this however we can.

    I'm glad the May 2010 Knotties are out here in support of all of our efforts and goals!
