The Figures. Day One

So Its official, I have gained weight during the holiday season. We all do I suppose. Eating is pretty much the central part of holidays and any gatherings we Americans are involved in. 

My weight... not too back was 215.5. I of course wasn't happy but I had not been on a scale since October so I am not totally shocked. Its all going to change though. 

We all weighed in on the Wii fit tonight. I think this will let us be accountable for what we do on our diets. Every two weeks it will tell us and track our results. I set my next goal of 10lbs in two weeks. It seems like a lot but you have to remember I don't absorb calories like normal people anymore so I think 10lbs will be an OK goal if I stick to my eating and working out. 

My Dad even got in on the weight loss goals so I am hoping that trying to outdo him will be a huge boost for me. I dont want him to beat me, its just not my style. 

I also set up my account of Calorie Counter which is an amazing free website that tracks your foods and your progress... if you want to use it just got www.Caloriecounter.com. Its really user friendly and kind of encouraging... just don't do what one of my friends does and lie to it.... if you have a candy bar tell it you had a candy bar, it wont jump out and bitchslap you! 

I guess tomorrow will be the official D-Day as everyone has weighed in and has set their goals. I will let you know how it goes... as for now... I just need support from my friends! I love you guys!
