Crazy Pants Weight Loss

Liz and I have been crazy these last few months trying to get ourselves slimmed back down, but as our Florida vacation approaches, we're feeling the pressure. Apparently, it's not enough that we stake cash on our outcomes and have to plan the date if we don't exercise enough, because we've both been in a bit of a lull the last few weeks. So, this week we hit high gear and pushed ourselves, ate well, and made good, healthy decisions in all areas. The results? 11.1 pounds combined loss! I lost more, but her percentage was higher, but only just barely. I thought our sweet victory was worth mentioning for the annals of history. In other related news, I also won the at work weight loss challenge last week, being the employee who maintained the greatest level of weight loss over the course of the semester—11.22%! Honestly, losing weight is super fun, but re-losing weight is a soul-sucking monster. We'll not be re-losing again.

Luckily we still have a month before we hit the hot Floridian jungle, but beach—here we come!

I just spent the day on a Floridian beach and I must say, you will not be sorry that you put so much effort into getting in shape. A word of advice, wear a shirt no matter what shape you are in. And, bring lots of sunscreen, and sunglasses. The sun on the beaches is unforgiving.
