So I am a big gadget person and I love my iPod and today was payday so I decided to invest in a new gadget ... I bought a new pair of Nike+ running shoes and the Nike + iPod sport kit ... this thing is awesome ... it has a little sensor that sits in your shoe under your insole and then you conect the plug to you iPod and it tracks your distance, pace, time, and calories burned ... then when you conect your iPod to the computer all the data is transfer on to you computer ... it's amazing ... not to mention my shoes are really comfortable ...

 

On another note me and Mom ran the Monument stairs last Saturday and have decide to go back every weekend ... this things are killer ... but a super good workout ... we are going to take a picture this Saturday and post it for all of you to see ...

 

Well I am off ... keep up the good work everyone!!!

So we did our weekly weigh in this morning and I lost 5 lbs which I think is awesome ... Mom only lost 1 lbs but in all fairness in the past year and a half she has lost about 125 lbs so she is trying to get back to the routine she lost over the holidays ... I have high hopes for us both ... this time next week I would like to lose 10 lbs ... I know that is a high hope but if I can lose 5 lbs over a week where I was fighting a cold I think I can do 10 this week ... Mom would like to lose 3 - 5 lbs this week ...

So as the first week of my diet and working out comes to an end I find myself more determined than ever to accomplish my goals ... and so far my will-power had been stronger than ever also ... which is all very well ... I just have to keep strong from here on out ...

So me and Mom are big fan of the Biggest Loser and we decide to join this challenge ... so here we go ...
