Well, it's that time. A wedding coming up, maybe my 30th HS reunion....in other words...it's time to finish losing the rest of the excess weight. DH starts his new job tomorrow so it will be a great time to get this thing going.
The amount I need to get rid of is roughly equivalent to fourteen 3-pound cans of crisco. I like to put it in those terms so it absolutely grosses me out and helps me to visualize just how much pure fat is hanging around my skeleton. EEeeeewww. If I start on August 1, and lose roughly 10 pounds per month, I will have a new body by Christmas! How cool would that be?
Anybody else want to join me in the challenge? What would it be like to start 2008 almost 50 lbs lighter? Use whatever sensible diet you'd like, lose it at a rate that will be safe, and check in with each other from time to time. I'm sure I'll do fine at the beginning but when I get down to those last 20 it might take some serious support from some others fighting the same battle. DH and I have lost some weight together but with work and such, it's tough for him to stay on this with me.
Happy eating!
