Warning: Before pics may be a little embarrassing



To ME!! But I need help staying accountable for my weight loss and workouts. I really need to lose some weight and get healthy for my boys. I am going to profile my weight loss and exercise routine on here, unless someone objects? in which case, I'm not sure I care. HA! Just kidding. I just hope posting these pictures and sharing my story will keep me motivated and I won't want to let you, my dear readers, or my family down. Kind of like the Biggest Loser contestants on the first episode this season, where they weighed in before their families and friends. Yeah, I'm doing that type of thing, just not on National TV. I don't have that kind of courage.




Here goes:



Ok. So first weigh-in.
Bathroom scale: 191.0
Wii Fit: 181.6
Not sure which is accurate? I was wearing the same clothing, and checked each one within minutes of each other.
Either way my goal is to reach 135 by the end of the year. Right now I am aiming for 169 in the next two months according to Wii Fit, so I guess that would be 179 for the bathroom scale? Regardless, that's approximately 12 lbs. So 6 lbs for by the end of February, and 6 more by the end of March.
I'm planning to weigh-in once a week, on Saturdays, starting this weekend.
My workout plan is to alternate between The Biggest Loser workout DVD's Cardio Max and Power Sculpt, starting with Level one of each, doing it 4 to 5 days a week (2-3 days with one and 2-3 days with the other, alternating days) and then in 2 to 3 weeks I will go to Level 2 of each and then on to Level 3 after a couple more weeks.
I'm thinking of posting pics every so often just so you all can see I'm actually doing it and not just saying I am, again more accountability on my part. Not sure yet, but there will definitely be an after pic at the end of the year (or maybe sooner?, let's hope).
