Still exercising and "Making the Cut" just not running many miles so I haven't been blogging.

To my few followers don't worry I am still going strong and taking care of myself. Just having fun doing other forms of exercise other than running.

Hope all your running is happy!

You're doing so great with making the cut! I keep not starting it:) I just need to commit and do it. I think I'm scared of how disciplined I'll have to be to only eat 1500 cals, but it's what I need.

Come on Leandra! Get on it! LOL!

Britta - You probably have more followers than you think. You currently get 120 hits on your blog per month.

BTW, LOL means laugh out loud and BTW means by the way. (Hee hee)

Just dropped by to say Hi!

You are amazing to be doing Jillians program, I did it one day and decided it was way to brutal for me!!! Enjoy your California sunshine and active life style!!!

Have you learned to SURF???

Are you coming to visit any time soon? Or do we have to wait for me to come visit you?

Leandra,

It is really hard to stick to the diet. I did really well the first 12 days and then my sister came into to town. I fell off the wagon for almost a week and still trying to fight my way back on. I have good days and bad but I am not giving up. I love the changes I have seen so far.

Burt,

My followers spiked this month because of the LA Marathon. We will see what happens in July.

And... Harder har har... that is means I am laughing.

Leslie,

Hi to you too! Hope you are doing well!

Kelli,

I haven't learned to surf yet, but planning on it. I am trying to plan a trip to Utar in july but not sure if it will happen yet.

Nicely balanced Britta!

Hope you are enjoying each and every day! :)

1500 calories for a whole day? I think I could eat that for breakfast :) Jillian wants to kill you.

Hey Cute Girl!! How are ya? If you come in July, please let me know, we will have to get together!! How is "Making the cut" going?? Have you enjoyed it? Are you seeing results? I really need to start doing some more intense cross training. My body is in "Halt" mode, nothing is happening!! Keep it up Britta, you are awesome!

From Kelli on Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 19:46:33 from 71.219.76.64

It has been a week----just checking in on you!

From Britta on Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 23:40:08 from 67.159.142.6

Kellie,

Making the cut is good. I have noticed great results. If I could just stick to the diet part I would be super duper happy. Right now I am just happy. Her workouts are really intense and really fun. I really have enjoyed doing something a bit different the last few weeks. I have lost inches which is great but no lbs. I am okay with that because I really like the changes I have made in only 30 days.

I will for sure let you know if I come to Utah.

From Kelli on Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 10:20:21 from 71.219.76.64

I bet you are RIPPED!

From Teena on Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 16:44:58 from 67.177.20.13

I second that ... bet she is too!!! :)

Good for you Britta!! It shows that all of the hard work is paying off! I am proud of you. I still want to come and visit you and my friend in CA. I should start working on that~ You still going to Hawaii in August? Wish I could go there too. Man, I have so many things I want to do but don't (can't) do any of it!! What's wrong with me :). Keep up the good work cute girl!

Hope all is going well! Have a great 4th of July weekend!
