Biggest Loser

Has anyone seen this show? I watched a couple of shows like two years ago. I bring it up only because I will be joining a contest on a board I frequent called by the same name. After having a baby and still having an extra 40 pounds on me, I thought it would be a fun way to loose the weight. It is starting just at the right time. The contest begins Aug. 4th and runs for 12 weeks. We all contribute 10$ to go for prizes to the biggest looser over all and the team that wins. They have weekly physical and mental challenges to compete in and of course a weekly weigh in. I may keep a log going on here about what challenges I do and what not. I need to go buy a scale. I haven't had one of those in years!! I will keep an exercise log and food log as well. I just read about a book (on the Ergo web site actually) called "Lose That Mummy Tummy". It is for women who have the seperated stomache muscles from being pregnant. It has exercises in it to help them get back together. I found out that my library has it, but I will have to wait a bit as there are 5 other people beofre me that have requested it. I'll also be doing walking, and T-Tapping. Plus I have these exercises that I copied down long ago that really tone. As for food, I plan on doing more raw food. That should help with the baby's fussiness. Most of my babies have tummy problems that stem from my milk intake. So out with milk, and milk products. That is sooo hard to do. So that's my plan.

Now I need a plan for packing, and for the girls school year. I'm going to need more structure for our days with a baby in the house. I'm going to try to put something on paper before we move to get a rough outline. That will give me the time to unpack and settle in when we move and then work into the outline and tweak it before the school year begins.

Well, gotta go, little man is fussy.
