wanna bet?

My husband and I each would like to drop 10 lbs!  Sounds great, right?  So, we decided to make it a little more interesting...a little more fun...a little more competitive!!!  We agreed to a bet. 

Here are the terms: the first one to get to their desired weight (in this case, dropping 10 lbs...bare with me, I'm taking a little at a time!) by exercising and/or eating better WINS!  Well, you might ask what is the prize? 

If he wins....he gets a chainsaw that he's been wanting!
If she wins....she gets a night away that she's been wanting...for years!!! (just her and her hubby...no kids, no dogs, no horses, not even pick up or drop off any animals along the way! PERIOD! For those of you who know us, you understand how that's a "stretch" for my husband.)

So I'm not willing to tell you my actual weight, but I will keep you posted along the way on the amount of weight I'm losing!  We will call today "day one"( April 7).

Today, so far I have rode the elliptical for 30 min and lifted weights...small ones, but they were weights none the less!  And I am now eating a salad.  No more sweets for me...I hope!!!  But I intend to fix brownies with nuts and Texas sheetcake and all those yummy chocolate and nut desserts for my husband.  Isn't that what a good wife is supposed to do??? :)

Wish me luck...(I'll need it)
