Let the Games Begin!

A few months ago, I wrote how my sister Abby, was doing this healthy/weight loss challenge and I was making some changes in my lifestyle as well.  (You can read about it here).  Well, another challenge, "Slimmer in 6" has started, and I am officially a participant.  The four members of my team are myself, Chad, my mom and sister Erin, and yes, we are "Team Supreme!" :)  The challenge just started on Saturday, and it runs for 6 weeks, but already I think we are feeling confident. 

Competitiveness is sadly one of my biggest traits, or trials, whatever you want to call it.  I like to chalk it up (and my fiestyness), to my red hair, and being a middle child.  But whatever the reason, believe me I will not go down without a fight.:)  I am in it to win it.

On that healthy post back in April, I wrote how just from changing a few things Chad had lost 6 pounds.  Well, when Chad weighed in for his starting weight on Saturday, he is now down 16!  I am so proud of him.  He says he has a long way to go, but I think he looks great already!  I have only lost 4, so I still have some to lose too.:(  That's okay. The woman who have done this program have lost an average of 10 pounds, so I think I can meet my goal.  As for now, wish me luck with those constant chocolate cravings...
