Biggest Loser
Many of you know that I am an "ex-heifer". I really am not lying. Today, I weigh about 80 pounds less than I did three years ago.
(Again, let me reaffirm, I love food.)
About two years ago, I was lucky enough to be determined and given the motivation to lose weight. I did it mostly by following the Weight Watchers plan.
It was hard but I did it.
What is the problem now? I am married and for some dumb reason... my fat is sticking to me like double sided sticky tape.
I have gained about 15 pounds since I started dating Ryan and it is really starting to bug the heebygeebies out of me.
While I was going to school and student teaching, I had felt like I had too much on my plate and I just couldn't seem to find the motivation to lose that lovely wedding weight.
However, I have now been given the motivation I need....
Biggest Loser - Family Edition.
My father in law (with the idea from my sister in law, Nanci) has created a competition within our immediate family.
It started yesterday and it goes for the next 8 weeks. Anyone who competes in this challenge will receive $25 per pound lost during the competition!!!! And the grand prize.... $1,000 in cash.
So to sum this post all up, I have found my long lost motivation. Who wouldn't with this kind of money?!
My goal is to lose at least 25 pounds... and win... ;).
I will be sure to keep you all updated as the month rolls on. I am going to need some cheerleaders by my side if I am going to win this thing.
Oh and Ryan is competing too. I guess that is important to mention. ;)
