The race is on!
My family is starting our biggest loser competition! We all weighed in tonight and we'll weigh in every 2 weeks and the person who loses the most percentage of weight after 8 weeks wins the money $180. I'm excited about this, not because I can't eat the stuff I like, but for other reasons. The twins are now 6 months old and it's about time I get started. I keep coming up with excuses and saying I'll start diet and exercise next week, but now is the time! I'm hoping this will keep me motivated. Who doesn't want to be a little thinner and have a little extra cash? I know this is a lame post, but I figure it will make me accountable to a few more people. Wish me luck...

Good luck! When Linc & I got healthy & lost weight (a few years ago) we learned so much about how diet affects our bodies! Of course now we don't use those lessons we learned like we should, but we are trying to get back on track. The best thing I did was switch to whole wheat/whole grain everything & brown rice. I think that helped us the most. Keep us updated on your progress!
That sounds fun to do it as a family. I was gaining weight after having William (with Heinz I lost all the prego weight just fine) so I'm doing weight watchers...since Jan 2 I'm down 7 pounds...so I'm liking it. Anyway...good luck!
guess what. when i saw you carrying the groceries last night i thought to myself, "is she loosing weight". if not, you look it!
That sounds awesome!! Good luck girl. I'm rootin for ya. $180 that is a nice chunk of change. I think it's great that you are taking time for yourself. I've started setting time aside each day for a little "celeste time"...which basically is...my butt on the tredmill...ha ha!! But it's amazing how eating right and little exercise sure makes a difference in your day. Good luck. You can do it girl. Oh and we need to get together for lunch soon!!
Good luck girl!! You can do it...Believe with me having 5 kids I have had to deal with the wieght issue....my secret is...eat what ever you want BUT PORTION size it is the key...seriously! No seconds and eat SLOWLY! You can DO this..but you do look great it's all in how you feel and carry yourself! I have always thought you should be a model...just the way you are! Just a heads up, your mom is being careful too, she didn't even have a loaded sundae at mutual the other night! OOHH the race is on!!lol!

You go girl. It's so hard to focus on loosing weight with little ones always needing your but you can do it! I am trying too and I just want to eat what I want when I want!! The boys are always reminding me I'm on a diet and not to eat junk. At least your little ones can't do that yet. :)
