Biggest Loser!

I made a New Year's Resolution to lose weight this year and to keep it off. I decided to do this for a couple of reasons...

1. I watched the Biggest Loser marathon on the Bravo channel all day on New Year's Eve and cried all day, and thought, "if they can do it, so can I."
2. I was skinny at one time in my life and I felt so good, and I wanted to feel that way again.
3. I wanted to be fit and healthy
4. Probably the most important is that I wanted to be able to teach my Parker good eating habits, early in his life so he would not have to go through what I have. The yo-yo diets, up and down, up and down, and many other things.

So, on Jan 3rd I joined the Biggest Loser online club with a good friend of mine and to this day I have lost 16 pounds. Yeah for me!! Most days it is easy, but some are challenging. My husband is a lot better now, (he does not bring home pizza from Papa Johns anymore and keep it in the fridge for 2 days.) after the melt down I had. There are certain things I will not let him bring home. (pizza and mt. dew) and he is getting a lot better at that. He encourages me when I feel like I can not exercise another minute and he makes sure I stay on track. Seriously, this is the best diet I have ever been on, it teaches you how to eat so you can be healthy forever, not just until the weight comes off.

Wish me luck through this next month. I will let you know how I did at the end of next month!!
