Yes again. You never fail until you quit trying. Failure is an event, not a person (Zigg Ziggler).
Saturday Ron uploaded a ton of pictures. The ones of me from the last 2 decades were disturbing. I looked and was shocked at what I saw. 255 was the highest recorded... might have been higher because I avoided scales. But that was the highest at the doctors office.
I was down into the upper 180's....was....
Looked at pictures on Saturday. Looked at the scale on Sunday... 208.5.
Monday 205.5 Monday was the day I came up with the contest to get my wonderful new saddle!
Tuesday 201.5.
I think I can expect to reach under 200 this week. You can see by the weight loss that I had a lot of water gain. My ankles were swollen. Not so much now.
The goal is for each of us to lose 50 pounds. Ron from 250 to 200 even. Me from 205.5 to 155.
I get a brand new saddle, special ordered. He gets a "new to him" car. Of course all based on having the money banked to pay for it.
50 pounds. Wow. I already lost 50 pounds. More than 50. I will do it again, this time the next 50, not the last 50 over and over and over again.
Funny thing is, 200 when I was 255 or even 245 seemed totally unattainable. And I was sure if I ever reached that magical number I would be very happy. Well I have gone by it both ways multiple times recently and I am not satisfied! But what I do understand is that 155 is doable, would be a healthy weight for me and is in my near future..... along with a really fancy black saddle!
Woo hoo! I can't really pick sides in this contest, but I am very excited for both of you and I know both of you can do it! I recently slacked off and put back 7 pounds, but I'm working on getting it off again.
