Hello From BelovedHeather's Friend

Hello! I just joined today. I thought it would be a good day to join since it's April Fool's Day. :7 LOL! I am BelovedHeather's friend. :) I just took her progress pictures this morning. Taking pictures of Heather every month is my new hobby. :7 LOL!

I just want to share my history as an introduction. My top weight was 398. I currently weigh 249. I need to lose another 120 to be healthy. I do water workouts with Heather at the gym. I am currently into organic foods, whole foods, and natural foods thanks to Heather. She has been not only my friend and sister in Christ but also my inspiration. We are good news for each other because we encourage each other not to sit around and eat but to get up and move. I have known Heather for over 8 years. We have been through the highs and lows of this roller coaster ride together. This is another milestone for me. Opening my Cathe DVDs on April Fool's Day. I am hoping to meet everyone at a future road trip. I will not have time to post as much as Heather, but I will visit when I can.

I am hoping to get on board with Cathe as soon as I open the box. :7 Heather took me to Target last June to buy the Cathe step and DVDs. They are still in the box. No, this is not an April Fool's joke. :7 I previewed Kick Max at Heather's place and want to know if Cathe knows she is not a rabbit with all that hopping and jumping she does. :eek: That girl bounces around like a bunny rabbit on crack! :eek: I'm scared of Cathe! :eek:

I am a slow loser, but there is more of me to love. ;-)

Heather looks so good. :) She is shrinking, but her shoe collection is growing. :eek: My next hobby is to do a shoe-vention! :7

I do not have time to check this site every day. Please keep Heather in line for me!

Please know that I want to be serious about losing weight and do not want to be looked upon as making excuses for being a slow loser, but there are people like me with physical problems as well as mental. I just call them my temporary roadblocks. As soon as I get my fat butt out of the car and move the roadblocks, I can move on down the loser's lane and join you on a Cathe road trip next year. Did I mention that Heather is a nut? :7

Hi, Rebecca. Nice to meet you. I'm getting to know Heather more, now that she's posting on the Cheetah Checkin. She's got a great plan for herself, and it sounds like you do also.

Step one was 'coming out', so to speak, and introducing yourself. Step two is to OPEN THAT BOX! Take baby steps. Little at a time. Anything you do NOW is more than you did YESTERDAY, right???

Congrats on joining our wonderful forum here. You'll find such motivational people, stories, lives, and advice....not to mention all the enabling that goes on around here. Be careful...or these folks will have you buying MORE fitness stuff! LOL

Welcome aboard Motivation Station!

Welcome RebeccaRose!

It sounds like you have made great strides already! Congratulations on your committment to yourself and fitness. You (and everyone you know!) must be so proud. Being healthy is a lifelong journey, and it sounds like you have made a great start. Now open that box and have some fun! You'll find the endorphins are addicting.

To be healthy, you have to live healthy.
 
Welcome RebeccaRose! I agree with Carole... any friend of Heather's is a friend of mine. We are quite fond of Heather and yes, we know she is a nut!;) I look forward to getting to know you on the boards.
 
Welcome RebeccaRose!!! I look forward to getting to know you better. Now, about that shoe-vention....as a fellow workout shoe junkie, I say .....LET THE GIRL HAVE HER SHOES!!!:7:7:7
 
Welcome, RebeccaROse. As others have said, any friend of Heather's....

(At first I was worried when I saw your thread title that something might have happened to Heather. Glad to see that's not the case!).
 
Hello Rebecca and Welcome to Catheland!!
Me too, I first read the thread and wondered the same thing. Glad also that's not the case.
 
Welcome Rebecca! You have come so far! Congrats on all your progress and good luck with your future goals! You will do great!
 
Rebecca!

I am so glad that you took the first and BIGGEST step....starting the journey!! You have made TREMENDOUS progress so far! Keep up the good work. You know, moving those roadblocks creates muscles! Open the Cathe box and get to work! Don't get frustrated, she's an awesome instructor and she doesn't mind in the least if you yell at her (and the TV;-) ) out of frustration. Stick with it and you will see results!

I'm also a slow loser, but a loser, nonetheless!!

Hugs!

Welcome!:) So good to have you here!

Unlike Pandora's box, opening a Cathe box is like opening a wonderful gift.:)

Welcome, Rebecca Rose!! I would just like to echo what others have already said, that any friend of Heather's is a friend of mine.

>>Heather took me to Target last June to buy the Cathe step and DVDs. They are still in the box. No, this is not an April Fool's joke. :7 I previewed Kick Max at Heather's place and want to know if Cathe knows she is not a rabbit with all that hopping and jumping she does. :eek: That girl bounces around like a bunny rabbit on crack! :eek: I'm scared of Cathe! :eek:

ROTFLOL!!! Rebecca, I think you and I will get along beautifully;) . Boy, do I have a check-in for you! Please join us in the Haters check-in. It's supposed to be for people who hate cardio except that most everybody checking in there actually loves cardio.

Congratulations on your success so far. What you've already accomplished is amazing and I really appreciate your willingness to share it with us. Good luck on your journey.
 
Hi Rebeccarose! My only advice to you once you start doing Cathe's workouts is to hide your credit card. :)
