I know I'm an errant blogger. But it's hard to maintain a weight loss blog (see my clever word play???) when you are steadily gaining weight.
Well, thanks to my cousin, I'm a part of a nice friendly Biggest Loser challenge! I sent her $20, along with I don't know how many others, and the top three will split the money in some as-yet-to-be-determined fashion.
It's not about winning right now. It was worth the $20 to be motivated.
Last week's weigh-in (Wednesday) was 298.5. This morning I was at 293.1. Down 5.4 in 5 days? I will take it. I will take it and run with it.
You know, I was worried about my weigh-in after the holidays. I lost weight over Christmas (not much, but a tiny bit), regardless of my concerted efforts to the contrary. Truly, I did NOT do well over the holidays. But SOMEHOW, I was down a tiny bit, like half a pound or something.
I was worried that it was an anomaly.
Not any more. Right now I'm just going to thank my lucky stars, and RUN WITH IT.
OK, not literally RUN, not just yet, but maybe a brisk walk on the treadmill?
