First Training at the Gym

at first i was scared.  my trainer is one of the best body builders!!!  he's won awards check him out... click here for his video.

so i know i'm in good hands! he's really a nice guy. starting me off slow....and will adjust my diet. 

he knows about my illness and will definetly take that into consideration when doing my diet.

he worked on my arms and upper body as well as abs today.

it was a good workout. didn't drip sweat, but worked the muscles hard!!!

its great to be back and working out!!! wasn't tired when i went back to work!! it energized me!!!

gotta keep on truckin!!!!

Training

Ok, so now i am officially a member of  gym!  and i will have a personal trainer to help me get started.  this will help me a lot!  

my co-worker also challenged me.  he said the challenge is who can get a six-pack by june.  argh!!  why am i so competitive. of course i took him on.  but this only helps me to get motivated to train anyway, so its a good thing. whether or not i get the six-pack, at least i'll be working out.

hope you all had a good weekend!!!

NO!!!

Think i caught a cold!!! so i'm taking nyquil...and vita c!!  argh....not good!!! hate it

I still need to do more to accomplish my fundraising goal, but this was a great start~!!!!

things are looking sun sunshiney!

well,
its been one crazy week! as usual. went to the crohn's and colitis support group. i haven't been to it for years. been so busy trying to get my health back up to par and then i started working. i met great people there! we have similar experiences. which is nice to hear, but just sad because they suffer with the same illness. some of them might come to the fundraiser this saturday!! so i'm excited! hopefully this fundraiser will be a great success!!! i never was the type to meet new people, but i have met some amazing people this year! this year is looking up for me! and its just begun!!!

Hey, pay attention to your cute doggie!! stop studying!

new walking shoes!

adidas!
i got a pair of adidas. didn't know, but they were on sale!
they are so comfortable. i went to all the "running" stores, but either the sales people were rude, or they didn't have my size, or the shoes just wasn't the right fit. got my adidas from sears. who would've thunk it.

started training in them!!!
YAY!!

From personal misc

Met up with Cheryl Ann Jong of the Lupus Hawaii...also met her hubby and a few of her friends! it was nice to meet up with them and chat! The place was pumping with music, and full of people.....didn't know you could fit that many people in one room! structurally, i was waiting for the floor to fall through....

About me:As most of you know, I have Crohns’ disease.  It has affected me on many levels.  I’ve been through many medications, treatments, holistic, etc.. Currently I am on Remicade, which targets specific proteins in the body’s immune system to help control the development of inflammation, significantly reducing painful symptoms in diseases such as Crohns.  It has controlled my “flares”.  But I still deal with it on a daily basis.

I have made a commitment to run this half marathon to bring hope for individuals battling IBD. I am hopeful you will join me in the search for the cure for  Crohn’s and Colitis. Over 80% of every dollar raised through Team Challenge will directly benefit the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America to support its mission for research, education and to find a cure.

 

Much Aloha and Mahalo for your support!!!!

Hope to see you bowling, or dancing...or dancing while you bowl!!
