Weight-Loss Challenge Complete

Well, I didn't post any updates throughout the 10 week weight loss challenge (obviously), but it finishes up with the final weigh in this afternoon. The final number according to my scale this morning, is that I loss 15.5 lbs! Woohoo!! I reached my goal and actually exceeded it by .5 lbs! I am so glad I joined the group, because it definitely kept me on course, but I am also glad it is over, and now I can relax my diet a little...yeah! :)
Anyway, not much else to say about this, so that is all for now.

New Year...New Things...

So, I am not one for New Year's Resolutions...they never seem to stick for me. But this year, Stuart and I decided to both work on our diets/weight loss starting with the new year. Of course, nothing has changed to date...just over a week into the new year. Then this weekend I saw a friends post on Facebook that there was a group doing a weight loss challenge and were looking for 2 more people to join. So after discussing with my hubby, we agreed that I would join them. so it will be a 10 week challenge, starting tomorrow we weigh in every 2 weeks with prizes at each weigh in for the one who loses the greatest percentage of their body weight, and a grand prize at the end for the "biggest loser." I am pretty sure that I probably won't win any of the prizes, but I would like to lose some of this baby weight that I have held onto so tightly since Jackson was born. so I am just posting this for a little more accountability...weigh in tomorrow at 10:00 and my overall goal is to lose 15lbs during the 10 week challenge. Updates to be posted as they happen. This is a very high and lofty goal, but I figure I might as well aim high!

I hope your resolutions are going well and that you are able to stick with them! So, here's to new things and good change!

Happy New Year!
