A couple of days ago I stumbled across this blog. She is hosting a challenge called Hot for the Holidays (see button on sidebar). The goal is for all who sign up to lose a collective 500 lbs between now and the beginning of December. Each Friday is the weigh in and your pounds lost (or gained) go to the group total. It will add some extra motivation to my gym efforts so I figured, why not? As an added bonus there are prizes each week. All you have to do it post your weight loss on her blog, as well as your own. So each Friday I'll be posting my HFH results here. It's not too late to join in - click on the button!
HFH results #1:
.5 lbs lost
To be fair I didn't start till Wednesday so not too bad for a couple days work. I finally got back to the gym this week after taking off for almost 2 weeks. It felt great to get back there!

Hey! I'm doing the HFH challenge too. Congrats on the loss! I only had a slight loss this week. Brownies were my demise! I really wish I didn't love chocolate so much. This weight loss thing would be a whole lot easier. Have a good weekend!
I hope to lose at least 15 pounds in the next two weeks. Does that count? :)
Great job! half a lb is half a lb :)
Jen-you don't count! :) How are you feeling by the way? Ready for that little guy to arrive?
Amy and Diaper Bag Diarist-Thanks for stopping by! It's great to hear from others doing the challenge. Definitely makes it easier to stick to it.
I'm glad to know I'm not the only wahm who feels torn! Sometimes I wonder if it would be better to just work outside the home and then come home and be with my family. I feel like I'm shortchanging them when I work at home and can't just play with them! I so wish I could just stay at home and not have to worry about working. Stop by any time to chat! I'm on Cafemom too (shell78).
A loss is a loss, no matter how you slice it. CONGRATS!
