My Challenge

In the past 2 months I did a lot of planning of my personal and business goals for 2006. One of my personal goals is to lose 24 pounds - to go from 149 to 125.

To keep me motivated to lose weight I decided to create on online journal about it. In fact I recruited a few others who also wanted to get fit and we created a group Body Challenge. We're all following our own preferred diet plans and just posting about our progress, suggestions and diet strategies. You can follow along with all of our progress online, or click on my name just to see my entries.

We're into week 3 and so far I have lost 4 pounds! I KNOW I couldn't have done this without the accountability of knowing I had to post about it online. Of course I also have Troy who is encouraging and getting in his workouts too when we play raquetball 1-2 times a week.
