my fave

For all of you who don't know......my favorite show starts tonight. I revolve my entire schedule around Tuesday nights. I will let nothing and no one come between me and

THE BIGGEST LOSER!!!!!!!

We don't have DVR, so i will turn down dinner invites, weddings, friends, family, running, etc... to be able to sit in front of my TV at 7pm on a Tuesday night. (What's so sad about that is about a year ago i had gone about 18 months without TV and seemed pretty well adjusted.)

Everyone has their American dream....TBL is mine.

It's almost sad how much joy i get from this show. almost.

Here's a little prediction of what we can expect:

First few episodes, everyone is extremely large and in charge, and I watch in fascination (probably eating chick fil a or cookies), all the time telling myself that most of these people have a good 300lbs on me, so i'm doing ok.

THEN we get a little further into the show and people who are still way bigger than me start running marathons and dropping my dream weight-loss goal in a week. 1 week people!!! And I then I start a new weight loss journey every Wednesday morning because i'm so inspired about what is possible.

Of course I get frustrated and mad if i don't lose 13lbs in a week, and Daniel gently reminds me that i don't weigh 426 lbs. It's just so easy to get sucked into their world!!

I love love love love this show!!! I cry a lot when i watch it. I just get SO emotionally involved that i really feel like i've gone thru their journey with them. I also yell. Don't get me started on crazy Tracey from 2 seasons ago. anyone??

sidenote: Daniel came and surprised me at work today with a new journal (that i've been needing for a while now.) Totally made my day!!! i love surprises and gifts, and like i always say....what is better than a surprise gift??

(my goal in writing this post is to hopefully get everyone else addicted to TBL so you can experience the same joy i do, and not get bored when it's all i ever talk about on the blog, ha!)

love
