Planks!

Planning for a Long Winter

Well, I am down two pounds.  Finally!  Mostly because it’s been so busy at work.  Body Shop started a little over a week ago and it’s been crazy busy!  That is good, seeing as I mainly eat when I am bored.  I have two teams in the competition and so far, they are doing great!  It’s a hard six weeks though.  Hopefully, they learn a lot and keep going after the six weeks are over.

More Firsts, Thanks to My Y

I didn’t weigh myself this week.  There was no point.  I know what I would see on the scale and seeing no change is not helping me at all.  I have not given up on my Black Friday goal.  I am just making it harder every week I don’t lose.  I have decided that after that goal, I will no longer be focusing on my weight loss. 

60 days....

Two months until Black Friday shopping.  Two weeks into my competition and I haven’t lost any weight.  My friend who is competing with me is into pants she bought two years ago!  Maybe there is something to be said about cheating….  Just kidding!  However, I AM going to do this using Canada’s Food Guide and no help from fancy products. 

My First 5K (and not my last)

A few posts ago, I mentioned my goal list and what I planned to accomplish by the end of this year. By yesterday, I only had one item left on my list; The Terry Fox Run.

Simple Concept, pfft!

I read somewhere that “losing weight is a simple concept.”  Once I calmed down and stopped cursing the skinny person that obviously thought this brilliant idea up, I realized, that technically, it is a simple CONCEPT:

Game on!

 A friend of mine goes Black Friday shopping with me every year.  I was telling her that my (newest) goal is to lose 15 pounds by then so I can get a new outfit and it turns out, she’s interested in doing the same.
