90 Day Weight Loss Challenge: Starts Tommorrow

Hello All, as mentioned earlier this month I plan to start my 90 Day Weight Loss Challenge tommorrow.


Rules for the 90 day challenge
  • $10.00 participation fee. (Lose the most weight and you will get it back and then some)
  • $5.00 per pound gained. (Duh, This is a weigh loss Challenge, not the other way around)
  • Weigh-in at the end of each month: same scale for everyone. (I will set up a meet and greet in a central location for everyone to weigh-in)
  • Person who loses the most weight takes the BANK! (How about something new to go with your new look?)
  • Lose the weight by working hard: I need you to get physical (Surgery, Pills, Shots, Etc. is not considered working hard) 
Please remember that our pictures will be posted to my blog. Also, do not particpate if you don't want your pictures posted or have health issues. Consult with your doctor first!

Hollywood: Diva Style

Hello Everyone,

It's been awhile since I've signed in. A lot has been going on. Bad News, my uncle passed away last week.


Rest In Peace: Uncle Bird!


Good News, all is well over here in my neck of the woods. My weight is keeping steady. Unfortunately, I'm not losing a bit of weight. I guess it doesn't help with all these parties that I've been attending. Speaking of parties. I traveled down south this past weekend to decorate for my aunt's Surprise 56th Birthday Party. The theme was Hollywood Diva Style. It was fabulous! We brought Hollywood to a small town in the country. I had a great time with family and friends. Ate, Drank, and was happy! NOW, back to the real world. My 90 day weight loss challenge starts tomorrow. OH Happy Day! :-(. Stay tuned, I plan to post my pre-weight loss pictures in a sec.

Check out the pictures of me, my daughter, and my aunt.
 Felicia & Jasmine

Annie

Happy Birthday Auntie Annie! You don't look a day over 21. :-)

ScrapNFit

Happy New Year!

Everyone knows that I enjoy scrapbooking. Luckily, I stumbled upon this website: http://www.scrapnfit.com/. The purpose of the the site is to motivate you to Have fun, be creative and GET FIT!!!


What a smart Idea! Combine your passion for scrapbooking and your desire for fitness. Well I don't have a desire for fitness, but like I said before I need it.

Long story short, they started a 90 day Weight Loss Challenge on January 1st. Unfortunately, I missed it. I was at a New Years Day party eating everything in sight, but it's 2011. I'm so over the gluttony. To help me on my quest  I've asked family and friends to join me as I start this 90 day challenge on February 1st.

The rules are listed below! Stay tuned for pictures and details on our first weigh in.

GOAL: to lose weight and develop healthy lifestyle habits, thereby affecting your overall health.

  • Practice Portion Control Daily
  • Plan your menu daily. Planning is essential to weight loss success!
  • No late night snacking. The kitchen closes at 8 pm!
  • Eat out NO more than 2x per week.
  • Drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water each day.
  • Eat a minimum of 5 servings of fruits and veggies per day.
  • Exercise 30 minutes per day, 3-5 days per week
  • Weigh in each week and report your results ... gain or loss... honesty is key!
