I’m doing an online weight loss challenge with some friends of mine from all over the country. There are 28 of us and it was $20 each to enter. The top three places money (50/30/20). Our weekly weigh in day is Thursday so I always count my Thursday first morning weigh in as that weeks loss.
When I first started weighing at home again in January (had the scale just did a really great job of avoiding it), I was 346 pounds. When we started this challenge, I was 312. Today, I was 296. That is 50 freakin’ pounds since January. Twenty-one weeks. (I’m in 4th place, btw… But am totally going to get into the top 3!!!)
I can’t believe I have lost this much weight. I’ve never lost this much before. I honestly feel like if I can lose 50, I can lose the 200 that I really want to lose. Metabolic has my goal at around 175, but I would be just beside myself if I could get to 150 or less.
It’s not going to be easy and I will screw up but if I can lose 50, I can lose another 50. Then another and another. So in what? Approximately 15 more months, I can possibly be at my ideal weight? Piece of… chicken!
