Weight Loss

Those two words strike fear/hope/exasperation in the hearts of men and women everywhere on a daily basis. There are few other two word phrases that scare a person as much. Maybe "I'm Pregnant", but that's for totally different reasons.

Back in the Fall I revealed to you all that my girlfriends and I were doing a Biggest Loser competition. Round 1's competition was over the first week of December and we all struggled through it. The Blue team, Nicole and Cathy, won with the highest percentage of weight loss. I can be proud of the fact that as an individual, I was the Biggest Loser. I lost over 8% of my body weight in those 12 weeks. It was hard work, but I got through it. With that said, Christmas came and along with it came about 7lbs!!

I was ready to cry when I stepped on the scales on January 6th for Round 2 of Biggest Loser, Oops Edition, but I sucked it up and I tried to make some healthier decisions and yesterday when I stepped on the scale I was down 3.6 lbs. Losing weight, to me, is the most frustrating thing EVER!!! Now, the reason I say this is because, LAST WEEK I HAD PIZZA AND OTHER VERY UNHEALTHY STUFF AND STILL LOST 3.6LBS!!!! I told you I tried to make healthier decisions, I didn't say I always succeeded. This past Fall, when I was trying to so very, very hard and was more perfect than not, I never lost 3.6lbs in a single week! So, what gives? Your guess is as good as mine.

As always, much love,
