New Year Weight Loss Challenge at FPG Day 2

I am very excited that I have managed to pull together another amazing weight loss challenge at work. It started yesterday and will run for 8 weeks. There are 17 people that are participating! I am so proud of everyone willing to lose weight and/or become healthier for the new year. Changing eating habits and losing weight is difficult but it's worth it in the end. I was able to get some really great prizes for the 8 week period from many great companies that were willing to donate for our cause. I am beyond grateful for their generosity.

I have been continually losing weight since September and have not deviated from my lower calorie intake that often. (there have been days that I could not stop putting food into my mouth) My 8 week goal is to lose 25lbs. That would bring me from 182 lbs. to 157 lbs. I don't know if I will be able to accomplish this goal because that's more weight than I have been able to do in 2 months but I'm going to give it a try! Even if I don't accomplish this goal, I will be happy just being able to lose weight.

I have however not worked out as much as I would like to. The holidays, vacation, getting sick, and spending time with my husband have slowed it down but I hope that next week I can begin doing my 5-6 day routine. We'll see how it goes next week.

Stay tuned for more weight loss challenge info!
