Less of Me

So this weekend, my dad was talking about the healthy challenge that he's participating in/leading at work. He's going to be doing Weight Watchers and trying to lose weight. I was thinking that it wouldn't be a bad idea for me to try to start eating healthier so I decided to challenge him! So, I'm going to eat better and work out more and see who can lose the highest percentage of their body weight by June 1st. I set up a homepage at sparkpeople.com and made a few silly pictures of what I would look like if I was significantly skinnier. (I was going to post the link to my page, but you have to have a sparkpeople account to see it.) My dad is going to be making a trophy for the winner, so there is a lot at stake here! Hopefully this endeavor will be more successful than a typical new year's resolution.

I have about 20 weeks before the June 1st end of the contest, so if I lost 1.5 pounds per week I would lost 30 lbs by June and I would weigh less than I have since early high school or maybe even middle school - basically since I don't know when! We'll see how it works out. For now, I'm off to the gym :)
