It is time for change!

Okay so I am sick of gaining weight and being fat. I figured out the other day that I have gained 42 pounds since Justin and I got married and for those of you who have seen me recently I'm sure you noticed!! Its just disgusting. So what am I going to do about it? I'm going to join the Valley's Biggest Loser Competition. For those other Biggest Loser fans like me you know that the contestants compete every week to see who has the greatest percentage of weight loss. Well this program is the same. I starts Jan. 30 and is 15 weeks long. Twice a week you meet with everybody to have training sessions and once a week you meet with a nutrition coach. Of course I'll be hitting the gym more too!! Then every Saturday morning you have weigh in. Now if you lose the weeks weigh in you are placed in the consolation challenge but you can still participate in all training. The grand prize is 5,000 dollars and the consolation prize is 1,000 dollars. Needless to say it would be great to win but I just want to lose weight!!! To help me on the way I purchased this wonderful little thing with my Christmas money...

This is the Body Bugg and it is featured on the Biggest Loser. You wear it on your arm throughout the whole day minus the shower of course and it calculates the calories you burn as well as acts as a pedometer. At the end of the day you plug it into your computer, it uploads the information, and you enter in what you ate for the day thus showing you either a calorie surplus or deficit. Voila! Justin got one too and we are so excited!!! This will show me just why I've gained so much weight and the Valley's Biggest Loser will hold me accountable when i'm trying to lose weight! My goal is 60 pounds so we shall see how it goes. I can't wait for Jan. 30!
