And here comes another week

So, we are starting Week 3. How did everyone do last week? I lost 2lbs so I think I am doing pretty good. Is anyone exercising? I'm not exercising at all. I probably will eventually, but right now I want to see how far I can get just eating my points. I like Aunt Ruby's idea of going with who ever losses the biggest percentage of weight. I can't wait until our girls weekend!!!!

Good luck this week!!!

Really Getting Started

Since I just returned from all of my travels, I'm really, really getting started today. I came home sick, so my appetite is pretty poor anyway. I hope that will help. I agree with Tara's dates (as far as I know at this time). I don't think we need to limit the amount. I think it just needs to be who loses the largest percentage of their body weight. I'm probably not going back to Curves until next week (at which time, my cold will hopefully be gone). However, I am trying to watch what I eat now! Good luck everyone!

Week 2

Here we are, starting week 2 of our family fitness contest. How did everyone do week 1? For me, week 1 started off rough, but by mid week everything was going good. I did indulge in not so good food on Thursday for a friends birthday and it tasted really good, but I got back on track somewhat the next day. So, I weighed in this morning and some how I lost 4lbs. I was very surprised, but very excited. I can't wait to hear how everyone else is doing.

Day 1

Hi Ladies! Today is Day 1 of our family fitness contest and I hope you are all ready to go! I weighed in this morning and tracked it on the weight watchers website along with everything I have eaten so far today. We still need to decide whether we are going to do 10% or 15% of our weight as our goal. I'm okay with either one. We also still need to decide our end date, so we know when our girls weekend is in Hilton Head. I have suggested Monday, June 1st as our end date with our girls weekend June 5th - 7th. Of course, that can be changed if that doesn't work for everyone, just let me know.

So, my one tip for the day is to make sure you drink plenty of water. I am really bad about this, but I know when I did weight watchers before that really helped me lose the weight.

Good Luck!

Getting Started

Tara suggested that we have a site where we can post tips and ideas or just talk about our progress, so that's the purpose of this site. Any of the 4 of us can add posts to it.
