Last Supper

Today was supposed to be weigh in day. D day. But we decided to change that and used it as our last hurrah. We went to Chili's and had a 'last supper' of sorts and got our minds wrapped around the fact that tomorrow is going to be less than desirable with scales and measuring tapes...


It couldn't have been a finer evening...While seated in the bar area, the BCS Championship Game playing on the tele (and in case you missed it, the Tide decided to roll and roll and roll right over LSU), the Coke flowing freely, and I do believe that I ate my body weight in salsa and may have even eaten a few chips along with the said salsa. And best of all, the company could not have been more delightful!

So here we go girls, we are setting out on a journey to become a little less flabulous and even more fabulous! If tonight is any indication of the fun we are going to have...we are going to do nothing but laugh our fool heads off through this entire process. It's gonna be good. Real good. And that's the way we shall look as well!...

deChunking...


 
Some friends and are starting a 'Biggest Loser' competition. I'm pretty stoked about it as I need the motivation to get off my baked-good-loving-butt and doing something about what the just said loving has done to the just said butt...

Anyone who wants to join is more than welcome. The more the merrier! It promises to be an absolute blast. One thing I can't wait for is the blogging aspect of it all. We are going to set up a blog to follow our new adventure so stay tuned for the deets of that as you are not going to want to miss the video clips of me as I try my first Spin class or attempt Zumba (yeah, picturing my uncoordinated largeness at any of these feats is enough to make anyone laugh so hard they'd pee a little...). Like I said, its gonna be good! And its gonna be fun! So join us!...

Oh yes, the contest starts Monday, and I think that if we are going to start let us start this puppy off right...by having a 'last supper' of sorts! Maybe endless baby back ribs and Coke? Who knows what will suit our fancy, or where we will end up...but one thing is for sure and that is that we will get together and do dinner and do it up right! Who's in?!

Here is just a copy and paste of the email I sent out with all of the necessary deets...


Biggest Loser Contest

We've all seen the show...The sweat, the tears, the guts (figurative and literal), the glory! Come join us for our own biggest loser contest and get in shape for the New Year! 

Starting date Monday, Jan. 9, 2012
Ending date Monday, April 9, 2012
Cost: $35 Includes
  • Weekly emails filled with motivational tips, tricks, workouts and recipes from a trainer
  • Monthly winners & Grand Prize Winner
    • Determined by weight loss percentage
  • 100% of your fee will be used to pay Monthly and Grand Prize Winners and the trainer for motivational emails 
  • Depending on how many enter the contest will determine the winning prize amounts

Heres how it works:

  • Weigh yourself and record your weight and your measurements of Chest Waist Hips (your weight and measurements will only be seen by the trainer as she will have to view them and compare them each month so as to calculate the winners.)
  • Take before photos of yourself (I know you may not want to now, but you will be so glad you did when you're svelte and want to show off the transformation you've made at the end of this bad boy!)
  • Place your weight and measurements in a sealed envelope with your name, email address and phone number on the outside. 
  • Place your entry fee of $35 in a sealed envelope with your name, email address and phone number on the outside. 
  • Give your 2 envelopes to the person who contacted you by Jan. 9th  

We will contact you via email for your weekly motivational and informative emails. We will also try to set up a group on Facebook and maybe even a Blog so that we can get to know one another a little better, share our stories (whether they be of success or less than...we wanna hear it all), and just get to know one another a little better and try to support each other in what promises to be a fun adventure!

Its the start of a New Year and a New YOU!
