The Biggest Loser

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 | Biggest Loser | 4 Comments

Well, last week a few coworkers and I decided to compete in a … … challenge. We met and everyone weighed in on the 4th and paid $25.00. We’re going until December 19th…the last day before our Xmas break. Whoever loses the most “perecentage” of their weight by that time…gets the whole pot of $$$.

So, for the next six weeks I’ll keep you updated on my progress and if I win. I’m doing good so far. I weighed in yesterday and I lost 5.8 pounds. I refuse to tell you what I started out weighing…that’s none of your beeswax… …but for the first week, I did pretty good if I do say so myself.

Weight issues have been a problem for me since I had kids. I go up and down and all around. I’ve lost weight before, 34 pounds the last time, but I gained some of it back. Hopefully, this time, I can keep it off. I’m just one of those people who can manage to eat the right things, drink a lot of water and exercise…for so long. After a while I tend to get tired of not eating what I want to eat and instead of eating the recommended portions sizes for one person…I’ll eat it for several people. That’s what I have to practice, and to keep exercising, even after the challenge is over.

So, we’ll see. Wish me luck.
