Week One, Day One

I have been on this road and on this journey for a LONG, LONG time now.  There have been set-backs, detours, traffic-jams, and cows in the road along the way.  But I am still truckin. 

In 215 days, I will marry my best friend.  That is 30 weeks from now.  I have set a moderate goal of losing 2 pounds per week.  If I lose 2 pounds per week for the next 30 weeks, and keep it off, and keep it up, I will be AT my goal weight on the day I walk down the aisle. 

I started personally today.  Next week, the Biggest Loser competition at work is starting.  All of the girls at work are gettig involved.  Weekly weigh-ins, group walks on breaks, water drinking reminders, healthy food days - etc.  This should be a big help.  I have enlisted the help of my favorite 11 year old to get my ass to the gym.  I KNOW I can do this. 

I just have to stick to it.  So here is my pledge.

I will weigh in, and report my weight at LEAST once a week, maybe more. 
I will get to the gym (or workout at home) 4 times each week. 
I will cut out the unnecessary sugary drinks, and get back to drinking water. 
I will update the below chart after each week's weigh-in.  If I meet the goal listed, the date will be changed to green.  If I miss it - it will be red.  I hope that I never see red.
