Stay at home Mom of 2!
I have struggled with my weight my entire life and have been on every diet imaginable with little to no success!

My partner in the Million pound challenge is my beloved mom;

DARICE
49
Federal Employee
she too has struggled with her weight for many years and even after undergoing weight loss surgury in 2005 continues to battle with her weight.

We are in it to win it! and who better to be accountable with then your Mom :)

We plan to loose the weight by reducing our calorie intake and adding intentional exercise to our daily routines! Through daily prayer and support from each other we WILL succeed this time!!

To learn more about us and to read why were doing this-check out our blog!

week # 5-6

Struggle..Struggle..Struggle!

that has been the theme for us the past two weeks!

I do not know how I can want something so badly-more than anything else in the whole world actually - but still seem to NOT do it?
This is why I have always been fat! I start out strong..motivated..believing I can finally do it! then life happens days, weeks pass and I start to loose momentium and feel like whats the point of trying..no matter what I will always be fat!! thats just who I am.

the weigh in last week went ok- we weighed exactly the same! Couldve been better but couldve been worse! the weigh in this week was terrible! I gained 2 lbs. and mom stayed the same AGAIN!!

I feel like I keep loosing the same 2 lbs. week after week! Loose it, gain it, loose it, gain it!

We really need help, and encouragement!
We are sinking...............Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :(

Week #3

Thank goodness each day is new!
 
We had a much better week this week~ mom finally lost 1 pound and I lost 2.8 pounds!!
I tried extra hard to count my calories and not have carbs for dinner. It seemed to really help.
We did go walking this week and mom has a Bowflex machine she is doing daily.
 
Our goal for this week.. is to keep on keeping on!

Week #2 weigh in-
Well this weeks weigh in didnt go so well...
 
I gained 2 lbs. and mom stayed the same (again!) Argh!!
 
I would love to say that "I just dont know how that happened" but the truth is
I had my birthday, ate cake (2x), went out to eat almost every night and we both found ourselves
eating PizzaEVERYTHING Pizza we could get our hands on..I would have eaten the wall paper off the walls
if I had some!
It has been very cold here, and I swear we have eaten like we were going into hibernation!
Here's to a better week-and some SunSUNSHINE Sun

Week 1 weigh in

Sooooo...
Week 1 is over and went great!
 
I have not drasticaly reduced my diet, just limited my calorie intake to 1500 and I am not eating after 8:30.
When I weighed in I was shocked to have lost 6.8 lbs!
I am stoked Wink
 
I saw the dr. this week and did a stress test for my heart, and passed with flying colors... so this week I will be
adding in some exercise! oh joy Angry
 
It is also my birthday tomorrow so I will be having some chocolate cake to celebrate! but the key is to just have a piece
and NOT the whole cake- HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!Party
 
I CAN do this!

Rock Bottom..

Red heartJan. 13, 08Red heart
Today my mom and I signed up for the MSN Million Pound Challenge!
I am very excited about this new journey and have faith that I will be successful this time.
 
This challenge comes at a very challenging time in my life..
I am about to turn 26 (next week!) and am already having many weight related health problems.
I currently have a fatty liver, umbelical hernia, pain in my knees and back and am wearing a heart monitor to further investigate
the heart palpatations I have been having for the last year!
 
I have considered weight loss surgury more than once, but when it came time to make a decision I just didnt 'feel' right about it.
I have battled with my weight since the age of 10 (at least) and have tried every new diet there is!
 
I now have a daughter of my own and it is my hearts desire that and life long prayer that she doesnt have to struggle like I have.
I have come to know that the only way-is to lead by example and a good example I am NOT! or should I say wasnt!
 
That all changes today! Today is a new day!
Red heartHeres to a new start and a healthy HEART!Red heart
