Well, crap...

The first week of Biggest Loser didn't go so well.  Of course, I didn't really do anything to take off the pounds (like say... exercise).  So my official weigh in is 291.2 which is a .2 loss.  It also means I had to hand over $2 for not meeting my goal this week.  *pout*

I also discovered I like my scale better.  I weighed in on it immediately after the official weigh in (since I have my scale at work) and was at 288.2.  That's a 3 pound difference, darn it.

Now to figure out how to get some exercise in... especially with this icky snow falling outside.

Biggest Loser... as so it begins

I decided that to help me along my journey, I need a little healthy competition.  So, I've joined my company's Biggest Loser competition.  There are approximately 30 people signed up to battle the pounds and each other for the prize money.  Each of us have put $20 in the pot and the winner at the end of 3 months will win 75% of the cash (roughly $450).  We're also each setting a weekly goal.  If we don't meet that goal, we have to put money in a sidepot and the weekly biggest loser wins that cash.

So, my first weigh in was today and (on that official biggest loser scale) I weighed in at 291.4.  I set my first weekly goal at 2 pounds.  We'll see how I do this week and then adjust as needed next week.  :)

And so it begins...
