As per our discussion over the deliciously grease-filled lunch of fried fish sandwiches, grilled cheese, pizza patty melts and crinkle-cut fries at Stamm's Dairy, we are beginning 2010 with a bang! Or, rather, with the sound of our fists pounding the counter after stepping off of the scale and realizing just how much that extra Christmas cookie cost us.
So, I've created this blog as a forum for us to communicate our progress and setbacks with our "get healthy" plan to each other. You can update as often, or as little, as you would like. You can post pictures, say your weight, mention the half-mile you just ran or rat on each other. For instance: Jessi, 92 days from now, when I've lost more than you, I'll be saying 'Suck it!' And you won't be singing 'I'm gonna win;' You'll be crying like the little girl that you are.
On that note, I'm going to head to bed and rest up. It's a new year and a new me (and you). I'll check back in the morning to update. But for now, in the words of Edward R. Murrow, 'Good night, and good luck.'
Well, I rang in the new year as expected. Drank two bottles of wine, one was Justin Ferns Christmas gift..oopps, and ate too much food. Weighed in on 1/1/10 and found myself to be a solid 198. Now that is on the scale in our kitchen which might be off a bit so on Monday, when back at school, I'll weigh in on the scale the wrestlers use. The daughters think they have this wrapped up, haha, little do they know or forget how much I like competiton!! The game is on you "goober peas". In April when you see me you'll think I'm nuts!!
