So this will be a double post day. Today is weigh in and righ now I am avoiding the very large laundry pile that needs to be folded.
So the other day on face book a few of friends all decided we needed to lose weight. So we start a group that for the next 2 months who ever loses the largest percentage gets a small incentive from the other 3 ladies. As I expected I have the most to lose, by a ton. In fact one girl in our challenge weighs my goal weight!
The other part to this is all the women in this challenge I went to High School with. Now in High School I was the dork, I had serious issues, I wanted to be every ones friend to the point I ended up annoying people so no one wanted to be my friend. I was basically severely insecure and would try so hard that people didn't want to be around me. This isn't a pity party for that Katie because she wasn't an innocent, I would also inspire drama, and well I lied all the time about stupid idiotic stuff. So you get it, I was a huge dork, that doesn't have many fond high school memories. I will say it is strange I ended up married to the captain of the football team.
My whole point by telling you this is it is very strange for me to be in contact or even doing something like this with people from High School, now the ladies doing it with me were never my problem in fact they actually put up with me more than they should have. One woman even mentioned that I didn't have my maiden name out so she didn't even realize who I was. I did that on purpose, there is a period of my life I am embarrassed by, I am not that same Katie.
So to wrap it up I think I feel good that this little challenge I think it will help keep my momentum going, especially through the holidays. It also helps that former insecure High school self feel just a little involved, even if I am the fattest one.

First can I say that your girls are so fricken cute!!!!
Sending hugs your way. High school doesn't define you, it was only four years of your life.
It's so weird since I joined facebook, all the people from high school that popped up! We are all adults now, with families and I think you should shed the old Katie once and for all.
What was really weird is that I graduated high school in 1986 and I was stunned at the amount of classmates who had such small children (infants even!) at age 41!
My daughter is 17 and graduating from high school!
I still have 25 pounds to go - we can do this Katie! Have an awesome day!
Good luck with your challenge!
Guess who just got invited to her 10 year class reunion?! Feel old?-Colleen
