So....I think we need a little wager to stir things up! I'm putting $20 in my paypal account to send the person who loses the biggest percentage of body weight by next Tuesday. To make things more interesting, the loser will have to sing to a camera, with passion and enthusiasm, the song of the group's choice...and post it on their page and YouTube! If you want to play, post a comment to this blog, with your current weight, the amount you are willing to give to the winner, and the song you would like the loser to sing! Because I have trust issues, I will be requiring a photo of your weights posted to your page Get to losin' !!! Jen *****My vote for the loser song choice. Here's a link if you want to brush up on the lyrics! Video Clip - Hopelessly Devoted To You482 days ago
This was sent to me today..thought I would pass it on, it's long but worth it! This is an actual letter from an Austin woman sent to American company Proctor and Gamble regarding their feminine products. She really gets rolling after the first paragraph. It's PC Magazine's 2007 editors' choice for best webmail-award-winning letter. Dear Mr. Thatcher, I have been a loyal user of your 'Always' maxi pads for over 20 years and I appreciate many of their features. Why, without the LeakGuard Core or Dri-Weave absorbency, I'd probably never go horseback riding or salsa dancing, and I'd certainly steer clear of running up and down the beach in tight, white shorts. But my favorite feature has to be your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on being the only company smart enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi pads be aerodynamic. I can't tell you how safe and secure I feel each month knowing there's a little F-16 in my pants. Have you ever had a ...

I completely flaked out!! I haven't been on here in a few months. Honestly, I wanted to put it off until I could come back strong. Here's how my come back blog was supposed to go: "Wow guys, I'm sorry it's been so long!! I've missed everyone, but I haven't had time to blog in forever. Have I got news for you. I was shopping at the Gap, and this model scout came up to me and offered me a job modeling swimsuits in exotic locations. I have spent the summer in amazing cities all over the world. While I'm on location, I never see the inside of a gym, I have to keep in shape by doing things like rock climbing, scuba diving, sky diving, and dancing with super hot men. I just wanted to thank all of you, there is no way I would have these opportunities, without all of your support to help me lose the weight....." See, that would have been a great way to come back! Instead, I've been gaining and losing the same 10 lbs over and over. Just embarrassing!! ...599 days ago

I am so excited and honored to have been a part of this... I went into this really justing wanting to gain some exposure, see what it's like to be a part of a photography show, and simply... get my feet wet, lol... never did I think I would walk away with an actual award. The craziest thing... I won BEST IN SHOW! I am honored, humbled, grateful, and dumbfounded all at once... I am grateful to the Lord for giving me such a fulfilling future doing something I love and am evidentally good at, lol... I was among 34 photographers, 108 unique photographs, all of the photographers are professionals and some have been doing this for 40 years... to think the "newbie" won the show... a definite testimony that Our God is a GREAT God, and faithful to meet us when we step out in what he has laid before us... Thanks for everyones ...

My son, Briley, had a difficult month at school. They started the Presidents' Physical Fitness Challenge at his school. They had to run a mile, do sit-ups, push-ups, and chin-ups. They paired Briley with the school bully, who is constantly making fun of his weight. Also, to make matters worse, the entire class had to sit and watch him, while they waited their turn. He was humiliated, he couldn't do a single sit-up, chin-up, or push-up. His friends got up and ran the last 5 laps with him to help him get through the mile. His coach was yelling at him, saying that he could do better than that, and the bully started calling him "The Big Zero" the rest of the week. He wanted to change schools and was really down on himself for the last few weeks. I was furious at the way they handled the tests, but I was also torn, because he is pre-diabetic and losing 20 lbs will eliminate his risk of developing the disease. I know that he has to get healthier or it will only get ...
