The timing was perfect- 6 weeks after my baby!
This competition is just what I needed.
(Although, many say it isn’t fair that I am loosing Pregnancy weight. Whatever you call this stuff, it needs to come off!)
Every Monday I have to report my weight.
I am down 20 pounds!
I have managed to loose an average of 3 pounds a week, simply by eating smart!
(I am NOT dieting. I am eating a lot! )
By Wednesday the results for the previous week are posted.
This is a very important day for me. It gives me another nudge to keep going when I see where I stand with the other 45 competitors.
This week I am in 3rd Place, last week I was in 2nd place.
(I fell off the wagon!)
This competition goes on for another 4 weeks.
I have been in the Top 5 Overall throughout the competition. I never considered WINNING the competition. I just knew it would be a good motivator. Being this close to the end with more pounds to loose, Sam gave me extra motivation.
“If you take 1st place, I’ll give you a reward worth the effort” he tempted.
My minds eye is envisioning a BEACH, or Airline ticket to the West, kitchen tools, or new camera!?
Whatever it is, it will be great. I know it will, because Sam doesn’t have the same disorder I have called Gift Challenged.
He’s pretty darn good at spoiling me.
So I’m up and running with new found determination!
Abi is three months old now and I am at my pre pregnancy weight!!!
This has never been the case with my other babies! It took a long time to loose it.
Granted, my body doesn’t look the same but I am back to my starting weight.
For the record, I was a good 10 “fluffy” pounds over my ideal weight when I got pregnant, so I still have another 10lbs to go.
Looking forward to hard workouts!
To be continued....
