This morning I got on the scale and saw that I am now down over 40 lbs. from when Bryan and I first started the weight loss death match. I see that Lyle is posting regularly again now and he is headed in the right direction. I think Bryan must have gone on a huge eating binge since he hit his final goal because he has not posted since then and I still owe him dinner for winning the bet. I think I have at least 10 lbs. more to lose before I am at a good weight. As soon as I lose the next ten pounds, I will make a decision about whether I want to lose any more. I want to buy some new clothes that actually fit me at that point. Right now, I only have one pair of pants that fit. I could not even fasten the button on them when I was at my peak.
I am going to take off from work about an hour early this afternoon to pick up my family at the airport. They were supposed to get up at about 3:00 AM this morning to head for the airport at 4:00. It is about an hour drive from Grandpa Lauro’s house. They get into the airport at about 2:30 PM EDT. If they are hungry, I will take them all out to eat. If not we will just head home. Christian said they had some more good pictures for us to put up, so maybe I will do that tomorrow.
October 13, 2004 – A slow night
October 14, 2004 – A better system on a trying day
I have not gone on a eating binge! In fact, I’m anxious to you to finish the race, so we can start our next contest… KEEPING IT OFF! I’m thinking we should have monthly rewards, and a yearly Grand Prize.
I do know that keeping the goal constantly in front of me has helped a lot!
Good plan! I am really probably only going to lose 10-15 more pounds. As soon as I get there, we can set up the next contest.
Fabulous Ken! I know from experience how hard it is to do this. I am losing too but at a standstill for now:(
I went backwards some when the family got home, but I am trying to get back on track. It really IS hard.
