As Allison Sweeney would say...."Kristi, I'm sorry to tell you, you are not the Biggest Loser". But I would have a similar reply as all the other contestants usually do, "Yes, but Allison, I feel like I am a Loser already". LOL. So, yeah, I'm very happy with my accomplishment during this contest. My goal was to lose 10-15 pounds. I always said that I HAD to lose 10 pounds and would be thrilled, and anything up to 15 would be an added bonus. Well, I lost exactly 10. So technically I hit my goal.
Also, I lost the 10 lbs as of two months ago and have maintained that weight for 2 months so that shows me I'll be able to maintain by keeping up some of the new habits I formed.
I know I "only" had 10 pounds to loose and it might not seem like a lot, but I was so frustrated with myself for the past 2.5 years (since I had my babies) that I couldn't ever get motivated to lose the 10 pounds. So that's part of why I joined this competition and am happy with my success, because I finally did it without failing.
Here's what I'm happy about:
1. I'm back into my pre-pregnancy size clothes.
2. I am wearing a bikini again.
3. I'm not snacking uncontrollably like I was before. So glad I got a handle on my excessive snacking.
4. I enjoy exercising again and will continue to do it a few times a week.
So, see Allison, I am a Biggest Loser. LOL
I need to do my after pictures! Will post those when I get them. Also, I plan to keep up this blog and keep up with anyone else in the competition that is continuing with the journey we started.
