Above is my updated fitday weight goal chart. Tomorrow it is going to look a little different. While I was out of town last week. Our family conspired against me to try to cancel our family biggest loser contest. They had decided that no one was losing weight and we should cancel the contest. When we talked about it -it seemed that everyone had lost 7 or 8 pounds. A few of our families members had lost more but had gained it back and were hovering around 7 pounds down. We decided that we were still all making progress-so instead of ending the contest on May 15th -we would extend it to July 1st. As we have extended the deadline I have revised my goal (and the graph in Fitday ) to take me down to 185. Now I haven't weighted this little since I was in High School-so it will be a bit of a stretch for me.

It took a little longer to get back on the wagon than I thought it might. The last two days I have had respectable workouts( as opposed to the last two weeks). I will definately need to ramp it up a bit. Our family is doing sort of our own biggest loser. We have each put $150 into a pot. The contest runs until May 15th. The object is for each of us to lose the biggest amount of bodyweight possible by this time. We will compare by total percentage of bodyweight lost not total pounds. Given that most of us are not doing so well on our diets or exercise- our main strategy so far has been sabatoging each other. My daughter and wife have been baking muffins or brownies and leaving them cooling on the counters. Although I have noticed that my other daughter and son in law have been adding some runs and bike rides above and beyond the nightly workouts we have been doing. I am clearly going to need to bring my "A" game to this competition.
