Exercising for Owie...

Last week I came home from my part-time job at Keller Williams, and was getting ready to work my full-time job with Owie when I decided to eat some cake and ice cream before getting back to work. So, I dished up my snack and then turned on the television, (and I know I said out loud) “I'll only watch something for a minute.” The moment I turned on the television here was this guy exercising. As I ate my cake and ice cream I couldn't help but realize how fat I had become. I've been so busy working (at a computer) all day that I realized that reaching over to pick up a pencil was not considered exercising.

When I got done eating I turned off the television, came back to my computer and ordered the darn exercise program.

So, last night when I got home from work I yelled to my husband, “Did my box arrive?” When he told me that it did I ran in the house and ripped it open. I then changed into my stretchy clothes and inserted my DVD and began. Within a moment I realized why the exercise program is called, Insanity. One truly has to be insane to want to work that hard.

But… now I have an idea.

I've decided to exercise for Owie. Children are always running laps around the school yard for non-profits, so I decided that I'm going to do the same thing. I have 20 pounds to lose, and this exercise program is for 60 days.

So my question is, "Who would like to sponsor me $1.00 or more a pound?"

I have 60 days to lose 20 pounds, and every dime of it would go to Owie and Friends to give Owie's to children at CHLA.

I've decided it’s hard enough giving up ice cream and chocolate just so I can look better… there’s no incentive there, (I know I’ve been dieting for years) but if I do it for a child... there is where the incentive arrives.

Let me know if you want to donate and sponsor an OwieBowWowie, and help a child become the BIGGEST WINNER.

Onward towards the goal!
