WHY SHOULD WE WIN THE MILLION POUND MATCH-UP? There are ALOT of deserving people on here and it's impossible to say why we SHOULD win; but we WANT to win! We've been fans of the show since it started and we LITERALLY love Bob & Jillian! In the past we were guilty of sitting on the couch and EATING JUNK while we watched the show, but we've found our strength! With all the help and support from our Match-Up pals, Biggest Loser trainers and contestants, not to mention MSN-Health's information and tips we feel empowered to succeed! A trip to the show would be the chance of a lifetime and we would savor every second but the Personal Trainer would be invaluable! Words cannot express what that would mean for our LIVES! We're sure whomever gets selected will deserve it just as much, maybe even more than we do, but we sure HOPE you pick us! Sincerely, Marcus and Amber Sea

Greetings everyone.
 
It has been a very busy and exciting and emotional week so far. First of all, I had my followup on Sunday for the Life Successes seminar I attended in July. It was a very good and bad day both but I wont get into that here.
 
As a result though, I am in the process of working to go back to school after the first of the year. 2008 was my year of health changes, 2009 is my year of continuing to grow and get my life where I want it to be. :)
 
Our workouts are changing with Stephanie to add in Mondays now. She is determined to make me look like Bill and Jim G. Amber isnt too keen on that but man do they look good. A good friend from my Life Successes seminar is a trainer also and we'll be hanging out more often also. So between Stephanie, Gabe and everyone on here..I cant lose (or should I say I CAN be a loser? hehe).
 
Take care everyone. Keep smiling Terry! And welcome home Sonja!

Our July numbers are up in the lists. The picture isnt updated yet.
 
I gained overall 1 lb but I was also sick at the end of June and dropped a lot of weight going into July when I wasnt eating for 36 hours.
 
Amber is still kicking butt and taking names...she will be at her goal weight by the end of the year and will be more smoking than she already is. :)
 
We had our 3 month assessment on Wednesday. My trainer still isnt happy with my hip to waist ratio and my bodyfat still says I'm overweight. /sigh
I guess the system wants me at 160. What else do I have to do? hehe....ok maybe laying off the Red Velet Cake for birthdays will help. My arms and legs increased size and she is happy with that.
 
Anyways I'm recommitted to watching my diet more again so maybe I wont stay in the rollercoaster 183-186 range this month.
 
175 is my goal for the end of September. 5 lbs per month the next 3 months.
 
Let's get it on!!!!!!

Ok... new exercise for those at home.
 
I think Stephanie called it a "Reach and Touch". Very good for lots of muscle groups and works your abs also.
 
 
1. Stand and lift you left leg up at the knee like a stork.
 
2. Reach your left hand up like the Statue Of Liberty.
 
3. Keeping your balance, reach down, bend the right leg slightly to allow you to touch your foot.
 
4. Reach back up to the statue position and repeat.
 
5. Switch legs after 10 times.
 
If you lose your balance and touch the ground with your raised leg, it doesnt count. :)
 
 
Have fun!
 
 
 
This engages your core to keep your balance while working your arms, back and legs when you have to bend to touch your toes.

Olympic Numbers for 7/22/08 :
 
Marcus & Amber :  2 HOUR Spin Class. Yes...you heard right. 2 hours straight. 1 hour wears you out as it is...when you add an extra hour that begins with your heartrate already at 70-80%, you realllllly feel it.
 
So I can assume we get 8 points for 2 hours.
