Okay, we all know what happens this time of year. From Thanksgiving Day 'til 01/01/09, it never fails that we all pack on the pounds. What with all those sweet and savory goodies, it's a wonder I don't gain more!!! With that said, Nick and I have decided to do a Biggest Loser competition in our home. We are trying to avoid all the weight that we usually gain this time of year. Don't know what the prize is yet, but here are our rules:
1) Record initial weight beginning Monday, 12/01/08.
2) Weigh and record weight every Monday (I will post about our results each week.)
3) Stick to a healthy daily diet with one cheat meal each week.
4) Try to get in three 30-minute sessions of exercise each week.
5) The person with the biggest percentage of weight lost at the end of December WINS!
*The rules have two exceptions: work party and Christmas dinner. We will partake in the goodies in moderation for those two occasions.
I was telling Kim about this and she wanted to join in on the fun so I thought I'd open it up to all my blog buddies out there. Whether you do it publicly or privately, take a step to stay healthier this holiday season. Even just a smidge can go a long way!!!

Oh I'm going to work on that myself. I've gained 3 pounds since Thanksgiving. As soon as the doctor releases me for more exercise, I'm going to do more. The holidays is a hard time to be losing wait. I love the goodies. Good Luck on your contest.
Count me in! Hopefully this will help me get back on track.
Yes Yes! Kim, mom and me are SUPPOSED to be doing this until our Spring Break trip to the mountains. Sounds like you are way ahead. I am the only one that fell off the wagon. I mean like so far off the wagon that they ran over me a couple of times!
