 My goals will be 

1) lose 30 Lbs 

2) No more soda, even diet, unless I get lucky enough to go to the show with my wife and then I just have to J and 

3) (This is going to be a STRETCH for me…no laughing please.  I am going to work out twice a week for at least 20 minutes.  

My wife is already laughing.  I know it should be more but I also want to be realistic.  Thanks so much for this opportunity.  I am SO ready to do it!!

Now it's Bio time! My whole life I've struggled with my weight and tried everything but something about this times has really clicked for me and I think it's because of all the things I've learned over the years and a real desire to live a healthy lifestyle. I've been on my weight loss journey since April and during that time I've lost just under 75 lbs!!!! I've basically been doing competitions since then to keep the momentum going. Also I have the most amazing support system of family and friends that has also helped. 

And finally my goals for this competition. I've been thinking how I could make these goals a little different for the holidays so hopefully I've accomplished that at least a little bit.

1: Find alternative healthy goodies and snacks to combat the temptations of the holiday season. 

2:  Maintain a workout schedule of 3-5 times a week even during the crazy holiday schedule. 

3: Drop 2 MORE pants sizes!!!

Yikes okay! I am back for more and more and more and more of this contest!

My quick little story: I started gaining some extra pound-age during my freshman year of collage nothing too bad, but enough to be annoying. After I was married a few years later then it really got bad! My husband and I both gained a lot of weight our first two years then I got pregnant with our first son and bam- REALLY OVER WEIGHT! Just shy of a year after he was born we decided to figure something out for the both of us, we started our first challenge and I lost over 50lbs and my hubs lost over 65 lbs- he has since kept it all off and has taken his lifestyle to the extreme he still looks smoking' hot and is great to have around for this up coming contest!
I on the other hand started hibernating that winter and even though I was staying very active, I guess my appetite got the better of me and then found out I was pregnant with baby boy #2- so now here we are 9 months after his birth and I am ready to get the party started.. Again. I am super excited for this round and I can just feel that this is my time! :)

My Goals for this Challenge:

#1- I want to come up with 3 healthy "treat" recipes or my "go to" recipes for those nightly munchies I will share recipes when I get these figured out!

#2- I plan on working out 3-4 x's a week using Turbo Fire, walking/running outside and I also want to make a goal of actually using my gym membership and get a "breather" from home once in a while! 

#3- Lose 1.5 pant sizes 

My Ultimate Weight Loss Goal:

Lose 50lbs but for this contest I would be thrilled if I lost 20lbs!! 

Megan R. Week 1 Weigh In

Lost 1.19%.  My goal this week was to try to say no to things I thought I needed but realized I didn't. i.e, Candycorns- they aren't that good.  I'm happy! ;)  On to week 2.
