Pushing Play: The Why
http://timetopushplay.blogspot.com/2010/12/why.html
Thursday, December 30, 2010. On April 23, 2004 my world changed. This is the day that my dear dad, Wayne Hartmann, passed away after a 10 year battle with prostate cancer. The first year, following his passing, was one of the hardest of my life – trying to figure out how to live again with this giant void. And for a few years, I thought that I was doing okay but I still felt that something was holding me back from fully living my life. Rather, I guess I just got stuck on pause. I re-joined match.com ...

Pushing Play: And a-Weigh we go!
http://timetopushplay.blogspot.com/2011/01/and-weigh-we-go.html
Saturday, January 1, 2011. And a-Weigh we go! First, I have to say, I’m overwhelmed by the number of folks who have reached out to offer their support and encouragement. Thank you so very much! It does help to know that so many are rooting for me as I embark on this journey. I’ve been crafting today’s post in my head for some time now. I’ve been thinking about how I would share the specifics of myself in a way that is honest yet hopefully minimally humiliating. And now for some other stats:. I am so prou...

Pushing Play: Starting Again
http://timetopushplay.blogspot.com/2012/01/starting-again.html
Sunday, January 1, 2012. Today is January 1, 2012. I sat here one year ago with the same goal in mind - lose weight, get stronger, be healthy. I did it then, I can do it now. I want to live, I want to enjoy - I want to be happy. I weighted myself today - I weight 192. Much TOO much but not as heavy as one-year ago. (I'll take that 3 pound loss anyday). So this year, I want to accomplish the following:. 1 Lose 50 pounds. 2 Learn to truly love myself so I won't sabatoge myself when life gets tough.

Pushing Play: January 2011
http://timetopushplay.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 17, 2011. Saturday's weigh in went very well; another 3 pounds gone! Sunday, January 9, 2011. Temptations 0: Michelle: 1. So all the worrying was for naught. On Saturday January 8. I stood on the scale for my first official weekly weigh in. As the scale calculated my weight I said a silent prayer – at least two pounds, please let me have lost at least two pounds. And anyone that has been to my house and seen my tiny bathroom knows that celebrating in there is no easy feat. Yes, I was teas...

Pushing Play: Weigh-in Eve
http://timetopushplay.blogspot.com/2011/01/weigh-in-eve.html
Friday, January 7, 2011. T’was the night before the first weigh in and no one was snacking. Trying to stay motivated but this weight-watcher was cracking. Holiday candy was calling her name. Say “eat me, eat me and your weight will stay the same”. But this girl was too clever to give into the chocolate trap. So instead an orange became her healthy late-night snack. Tonight marks the end of week one and tomorrow morning I will have my weekly weigh in. I eat (or can I say, I used to eat) whenever I wanted,...

Sunday, January 9, 2011. Temptations 0: Michelle: 1. So all the worrying was for naught. On Saturday January 8. I stood on the scale for my first official weekly weigh in. As the scale calculated my weight I said a silent prayer – at least two pounds, please let me have lost at least two pounds. When my weight finally registered and I looked down I was happy to see the results. Well, that’s not true, I was ecstatic. During my first week of WW, I lost 4.6 pounds. Yes, I was teased by the kids – 10 y...
