Game On ~ part three...

As mentioned in part two, we went camping for five days and that limited our food choices and it showed on our slow down on the scale.  GREAT NEWS... neither of us gained, just slowed down our loss.  We are still headed the right direction and that is what REALLY rocks!  

I am gaining a lot of energy and Lance was surprised to come home from work yesterday and see that I had mowed the lawn and pruned back our porch-vine-from-HELL (seriously grows like crazy and is unable to be killed ~ trust me, I've tried!  But that is another post.)!!!  Did five loads of laundry (that is more than six trips up and down our stairs~which I HATE!) but they were done and folded, dishes done... Now, I do keep our house up, I don't sit around eating bon-bons... but I usually wait and try to cram it all in when I'm upstairs for the night (laundry) or we are completely out of dishes.  But since we started Game On!, I have had the energy and the desire to keep moving.  I love that benefit!!!

We are still chuggin' loads of water.  I'm still drinking about 4 - 4 1/2 liters a day.  I haven't had one Cranberry Limeade for over two weeks and my scripture reading is going amazing.  

Now onto week 3 ~ we are committed to switch things up a bit and get some major numbers on the scale again.  

Git 'r done!!!!

Game On ~ part two!

We finished week 1 of Game On with a BANG!  Lance lost 8.8 lbs. and I lost 14 lbs.  That makes my total (overall) loss 64 lbs.!  To say I am stoked, is an understatement!  

Chuggin' three liters of water a day is not enough for me.  I am drinking 4 - 4 1/2 liters a day.  Any less and I am THIRSTY!  It's all in the water drinking!!!  

We camped over Memorial Day weekend and I was wearing pants that I have had and I could not keep them up!  When I tried to carry my keys and phone in the pockets they just kept falling down... Lance was quite amused.  This is great and not so great ~ I LOVE that I am losing but I can't afford to buy new clothes as we go along here... I'm thinking that safety pins are going to become my friends real quick.  

On we go... Git 'r done! 

Game ON!

Okay, so Lance and I have joined the 'game', Game On!  It is 78 people who are all on teams of 3-5 people and they are all working toward the common goal of developing good habits, shunning bad habits, drinking a TON of water, eating right, exercising, at least, 20 minutes every day and LOSING WEIGHT!

Today is day ONE.  I was done with my 3 liters of water by 1pm.  I read my scriptures (good habit) this morning, worked out while watching "People's Court" and drove past Sonic and resisted getting a drink (my bad habit)!  I am eating great (for three days now) and not eating anything after 8pm (SOOOO hard for me). 

I am on a team with three other ladies, we are called the Victorious Secret!  (or Team 12)
Lance is on a team with three other guys and I don't know their team name.  (Team 3)

You earn points for all of your different areas every day.  100 points per day and you report weekly.  The team with the highest number of points wins cash!  Also the top two men and top two women who lose the highest percentage of weight also win cash!

I am so excited!  I'm going to rock this thing and win some MONEY!!!!

As it gets rollin' I will post my stats... not today.  BUT, a huge P.S., I weighed myself to begin this journey and found out I was about 50 lbs. lighter!   THAT is AMAZING!
 

So come on y'all GIT 'R DONE!!!!

GAME ON!!!!
