I FAILED!

So this is going from bad to worse! We did so bad on the dietbet neither one of us took it serious! I feel gross and weighting 187 so gained 4 lbs but feels like it is 10lbs. This week was a little better I planned my meals and really tried to stay away from bad foods. But didn't go to the gym all week and I just feel bad and I don't know what is going on. It is all mental! Was considering buying a 10-day cleanse but I feel so silly that I need to buy something to help me get back into the mindset. All I know is that I have to try on my bridesmaid dress on Nov. 22 and I AM FREAKING OUT!

I wish I could be positive and show progress but I'm just not there - and it is really just making me feel crappy.

Thursday blues.

OCTOBER DIETBET

In blog land like in real life there are trends. The popular weight loss bloggers will try something or announce a new challenge and within a couple of hours/days most will follow and join in on the detox, Jillian Michael video, or monthly challenge. Well last month Skinny Meg announced her DietBet and everyone joined in- 887 participants and the pool was $22,575! You bet 25$ (joining fee) to lose 4% of your weight in one month at the end the winners divide the pool of money. Of course every participant had to submit a picture of their weight in the beginning of the month and at the end to make sure no one cheated. Well I decided not to join in because I wanted to see how it all worked out and I knew I was still not mentally focused to lose weight.

However October is here & I"m ready to end the year strong!! And if you know me you know I'm a sucker for bets, some would call it a gambling problem but not the time to get into that. Ashley isn't a gambler but she is competitive so with a little bit of shit talking I had her convinced to do it with me. We did the same rules as the official DietBet however if we both lose our 4% we would just go out for a nice dinner or buy something for the apartment. We did add a little twist so we save some money and avoid crappy temptations. Every time one of us eats fast food- the same amount you spend on the meal has to be added into the pool of money. We officially started yesterday and already I put money in the pool HA but it is game face on - & Ashley is GOING DOWN
 

Starting Weight- 183.6lbs
4% to lose -7.3lbs.
