My friend, Teresa, decided it would be fun, but beneficial to start our own "Biggest Loser." Now, if you know me at all, you know how much I like to win! I love a good ole' competition... and plus I really need to lose weight. Cambelle did a number on my body but when she was 6 months old, I lost all but 5 pounds, but then 3 months later, I found out I was preggers with Chloe... so I had to start eating for two, right? So, let's just say after I had Chloe my body was looking old, weak and run down. Don't forget saggy. So, I was up for the challenge.. and the reward is pretty hefty. Every participant gave $20 so the pot is somewhere around $600. The competition is based on how much body fat we lose and it started December 1st. Since then I've been taking Pilates, an exercise class and I now have my own personal trainer at the gym. I've lost 11 pounds so far... I'm really excited. Plus, I'm watching everything I eat and cutting out a lot of bad foods. I'm addicted to the gym and love how I feel. I've gone down a pant size and have tons of more energy. Even people at church on Sunday gave me great compliments, so I know it's just not me who's noticing a change. The Biggest Loser Challenge ends May 31st, but I have only 7 more pounds to lose till I'm back to pre-pregnancy weight. And, once I stick to something I hate to let myself down, so I'll keep you posted on my weight-loss. Hopefully I'm the "Biggest Loser."
