my first day alone :(

Yes people....it is a sad day.....today marks the first day that i am without my Tony workout :( Well i did do a Tony workout....just not a freshly emailed one. So, today was legs...and I worked them...big time....and i will be feeling it big time in a day or so, im sure! I tried to go up in weights on everything just to push myself a bit. I love it!

He was totally cool and understood my situation and he told me that he believes in me and he knows that i will keep up with it on my own! I promised him that i would lose my last 9 pounds and make him proud! He said I know you will....and if you ever need me...I will be right here for you!....he is the best! And that is why he is so great!

So, off the fitness track....this weekend was ok...we tried to go to the shore on saturday, but there was so much traffic, we had to get off the highway at the next exit and squash the idea of the beach...it probably would have taken over 2 hours easy to get there...and by that time, you are so aggrevated, you dont even want to be there...so we scratched that idea and went to the mall instead :) Not that i bought anything cause im broke...but its fun to look :) Then I watched High School Muscial 2 with Angelica....I know it can't get any better than that! Dont be jealous..you know you wanted to see it....lol....it was cute though....

Yesterday, i went to Home Depot and bought a florescent light for my basement. My dad is going to put it up for me so i have more lighting down there...its a little dark....he is so good to me :) Then i went to Target....it was so crowded, you would have thought that it was Christmas Eve or something! But i guess all the back to school stuff going on made it so busy. Then i went to my mom and dad's for dinner.

I guess that's all i got for now....the weather is crappy and it is sooo cold here in work! I dont know why they have to keep it so freaking cold! I have a sweater on and my little heater is on full blast.

Oh, well...back to work :)

Don't see this as a sad thing Angela, so this a positive thing.

A chance to prove to yourself, you can use this knowledge and understanding you've been given, and get the changes you want on your own.

I know what you mean about the sadness thing, I mean obviously it must feel like a small bit of you is missing, or something like that, but think of how good it's going to be, when you achieve, (what I know personally you're capable of), with your own determination, solid commitment, and increased knowledge, and get the results, with no assistance, just you standing tall, walking tall, and doing everything you've previously done, but taking it one step further, and doing it just by yourself.

That will feel like a great feeling, and you won't let anybody down, least of all yourself.

You've done fantasticaly, and you've worked hard to make the knowledge and advice work, and you deserve a lot of credit for your results, as good advice produces nothing without dedication, and emotional / mental commitment.

So give yourself a big pat on the back Angela, as the pictures say it all, and you've done a great thing, even though you've had to lose a lot less than some do, you've given a lot, and done a lot, and I'm inspired by you, and happy for you, and you should be proud of yourself.

So I hope you don't see this parting of ways as anything too bad.

On the one hand it probably does feel like a small part of your life has ended, but in other ways it's a chance to show people what you can now do, and prove to yourself, that you have what it takes to succeed on your own, and be an emotionally, and mentally strong woman, that can succeed at physical challenges, and look and feel as good as you deserve to.

I know by taking this decision, you've lost an avenue of support, but everyone here, (myself included), will certainly give you all the support you need, no matter what you do or how you feel, so we'll be here for you big time, and we all want you to succeed, and make a success of yourself at this.

You are doing fantastically, so big smiles, keep loving yourself like you do, and remember, that with a face as radient and glowing as yours, there's proof that the rest of you can be just as good as that.

You've got good genetics, and it's showing week by week.

Sneding you a BIG PAT ON THE BACK, and best wishes for the remainder of your challenge, and no worries yeah. You're NOT going to fail at all, you're going to carry on succeeding, just like you have done all these weeks.

You're pretty amazing Angela, and you deserve all the good things you've got in life.

WELL DONE.

:-) :-).

You will do fine without Tony. You already know what you need to do. I felt the same way when I didn't have mine. It was a bit different for me though, I actually worked out with Fred in person. He pushed me so hard. I actually prefer getting the workout and doing it on my own.
