Life changing.... Maybe.

This is the year for infinite possibilities. Ok, so far, this morning I have decided on a few things. Number one. I am participating in Gold's Gym 12 week transformation challenge. i plan to work out as much as I can without burning myself out. I am committing to a lifestyle change. I also have decided to join a running club by the end of the year. I plan on running/walking a 5k or 10k by the end of the year. Maybe both. I am ready. 23 years old and 257 pounds is not my idea of fun and I refuse to let my weight hold me back any longer.

Are you with me?

Love and blessings.

Latrice.

La-di-da who rock the party.. :)

Not many people know that I can sing. I usually tell people I can't. I think I will start a youtube channel. In the beginning I will be private and when I feel more comfortable I will open it up. The first songs I want to sing are "love on top" by beyonce, "ain't no way" amber riley's version, "slow motion"by karina parisan and "beautiful" or "emotional rollercoaster" by vivian green.

Detox, savings, fitness

Happy New Year Loves!!!! I hope you new year has started off wonderfully. I am starting off the year wiih a 9 day detox. I will be eating nothing but brown rice, veggies, and fruit. I will also be drinking only water and tea and maybe some milk. it is onlyy nine days. i just hope i can find recipes that make the meals different everyday. i will try to stick to a fitness regime. try so hard.

So about two weeks ago, i found out i have type 2 diabetes. I knew i had it but i was officially diagnosed with it. These medications are making my head and i cant wait for this side affect to stop. I want to go work out but i dont want to do that with my head hurting.

I just started my phlebotomy clinicals, i am having so much fun sticking people. I am waiting to be scheduled for my CNA exam but for some reason its taking so long for them to accept it. Then on Jan 26, 2012, i wIll be taking my NPCT exam. Im excited things are working in my favor.

I am now foung to continue watching Polar Express until i get my grandmother up.

Pray for me you guys
