A couple of weeks ago I told you that G sr and I had started doing a new weight loss/get healthy program. What I failed to mention was the name of the program. The first time G sr told me about it I laughed uncontrollably, in fact every time I thought about it I laughed, or at least chuckled. He wasn't laughing. But he is now. You see he stayed with the program and it's working wonders. I on the other hand couldn't quite get into it. I started to feel like a chicken with all of those eggs! Of coarse I was eating them, not laying them.
So, the program is iwantsixpackabs. Did you get that? You just add a www. and .com and you're well on your way to a Tyler Durden (name that movie) physique.
Here it is. Go check it out. No really, I'll wait.
Okay, stop laughing.
This program seems a little hokey but apparently it works. Hold on while I scrounge around through my pics for some good before shots of G sr. (insert Muzak here).
I'm back. Here's what I found:
This one is from 2004.
This is more recent - just a year ago.
This is from 2005. Notice the absence of a 6 pack - just a keg at this stage.
Here is me and Kmac that same day. Just thrown in for good measure. Proof (for myself) that I can weigh less than a bull mastiff.
Moving on. Here is a picture that I took the other day of my sweet love.
Needs a tan, but...Tyler Durden, here we come!

Well, enough about the love of my life. What I was really wanting to tell you, since you are my accountability partner, is that in all of the weeks of doing the ladies version of iwantsixpackabs I didn't lose a single pound. *sigh* Now, thankfully I didn't gain any either. But it wasn't exactly the results I was aiming for. So, for familiarities sake I quit that program and went back to Weight Watchers. Yes, I'm back in the saddle again (name that song).
Last Thursday was my first weigh in. I lost 1.6 lbs just by walking in the door! Wahoo! Alright, so maybe their scale is just different that the one I was using. Big deal. I'll take it however I can get it. So now my official weight is 198.4. My goal is 155. Only 43.4 left to go. I say only because the last time I did W.W. I had 83 lbs. to lose. So 43.4 is a walk in the park. Piece of cake! And yes I pulled out my calculator to figure out how much I had to lose. I don't need to be making any math errors, having you wonderful people check my work, and then losing all faith in me. I can teach my kids, I can, I can. Sorry, just some mental encouragement for myself. I need that from time to time.
Okay 43.4, bring it on!
Did somebody mention cake?
Side note: if I'm not back within a week then my husband has buried me in the backyard for posting these pictures of him.

2) Don't know the song. Probably do, but it seemed like something that would be in lots of songs. Maybe...
3) Good for you.
4) If I ate so many eggs I would drown in vomit.
5) Genny just randomly said to me "where there's a will, there's a way." So I am passing it on to you... (such wisdom from my disobedient 9 year old!)
My wife is dead and buried for posting me belly!!!!!!!
