Survived...barely....

Yes, that is it...Muscle weighs more than fat...and that birthday cake I ate was calorie free...so I should have lost a bunch. I am down 1 more pound, and grateful that I didn't gain 20. So I am only at 98. Something has got to click so I can get back on track.
Hope everyone had a great weekend. I am going to have to give up sugar again this week. Wish me luck.

Building Muscle?

Muscle weighs more than fat right? So hiking all over Arches National Park this weekend was muscle building so that is why I am up 1 lb. You would think after carrying Sadie and sweating so much I would be down 10 pounds. Oh, well.
Better luck next week.

Baby Steps

Ok, so I am down 2 pounds, but since I was up one last week I am only at 99lbs.  My goal is 85lbs, this feels like an impossible task, still but I'll get there.  One pound at a time right? :)

A little late....

woops...
I never checked back to see who was in. I am down a pound this week. Wishing for more...but having a hard time not snacking on junk this week. Maybe better luck next week. Now I am just hoping for 10 pounds by reunion. I need a reward. Any Ideas????

Down 4!

I am down 4 lbs! That puts me at 96. I am really excited. Right now I am skinnier than I was between Corinne and Will. That is awesome! I see the summer looking good.

Bring it on!

I lost five so I have 15 to go, yes that seems pretty impossible about now, especially since I just weighed in at 101, up a pound.  But I am blaming it on that special happy time of the month, that makes me smile (yeah right).  Anyways I am going to hit it hard again, starting NOW!!!!

I'm IN!

I'm in! I am stuck at the same weight and it's bugging me. I need the competition to keep my self motivated. I still need to post an after picture. I'll get that taken today. 
My goal is another 10 lbs. 
Let's do it!
Then let's go and buy new clothes!

I'm back in...are you????

Hey, I had so much fun I am signing on for another round. My class reunion is on June 20th. I am shooting for another 15 pounds down by then. I am starting over at 100 and will work my way to 85 again. So if you are also in let me know. We could set another reward or just think of a special something to reward ourselves with.
So here goes. I was up just about .4 after all that partying last weekend, so that will be my starting point. I am at 100 and ready to go!!!!

Way to Go All!!!



Congratulations everyone!!! We are beyond awesome, we are BE_AWESOME!!
Well, we finally made it to our first milestone. And to think I almost gave up before I got started. Here are the final (or sort of final) results for Team King. I am at 84.8. Barely making my goal of 15 pounds. David is at 91.6. A little off of the goal, but going strong. Thank you all for all the support and encouragement. A few good things are I am almost 2 pants sizes down. (notice it is the same shirt in the before and after photos, just a lot less tight around my middle) I beat my personal best up the mountain this morning. I rode strong on the bike ride yesterday. My knee did not hurt on the hike or ride. I feel great! Life is GOOD!!! I am thinking this is just the begining. I have a few more milestones to reach before I am finished. Just think what good things 15 more pounds may bring.
I will see you all tonight. I am looking forward to steak and dessert...Yum!!!

Almost there!!!

What a week...me sick, kids sick...no exercise...awfull. But, this morning I am down a couple more pounds to 86 on the nose. I was hoping to reach my goal early, but I will get it this week no problem. David is down a bit as well to 94. He may not reach his goal this week, but you never know.
Good Luck all....This is so good for me...I think my husband knew just what I needed to get this going.
Thanks,
Natalie

Cake, Weddings, Slush, and fun!

I am still the same this week staying at 87. Jason is down 2 lbs putting him at 96. He says it's those same 4 lbs he keeps loosing. I am just really glad I didn't gain this week. After being at my parents house and all the traveling I feel okay about that. 

So who is hosting the BBQ, where and when? We could do my house but, honestly, with us being gone the last 3 weekends in a row our yard is a mess. We have had no time for spring cleaning and it shows. 

I can't wait to see everyones skinny after photos.
