Just blogging

Okay. This blog is for me to put my articles on, but its also to help me lose weight. I started at the beginning of January at 195 lbs. I'm down to 181.2 lbs as of this morning. Before I left for Disney I was at 181. So I've lost the weight I gained at Disney. I admit I've been slack on things after Disney, but I'm back in the game.

We're doing a "Biggest Loser" Challenge at work and I need to win it! *grins* The winner gets the jackpot of $200. Isn't that sweet? It only cost $10 to get in. For each pound gained (with a 2 lb leeway) over your starting weight you have to pay an extra $1. I've lost a total of 13.8 lbs so far. I think I'm doing good. I just need to get back to the gym and exercise. I've busted my butt the past two days in the gym. I feel like I've made a lot of progress since the first of the year. My muscles are stronger. I feel more fit!

I watch the biggest loser on Tuesday nights and wonder how some of those people drop 5-10 lbs in a week. I know they do extreme workouts. I'm going to try to push myself at the gym to go out of my comfort zone and to lose the weight I want. There are some people on that show that have lost 140 lbs in just 17 weeks which is amazing! I can't to see who wins! I'm rooting for Tara. I think she's a very strong woman and I applaude the efforts she's made and all the challenges she's won on there.
