Widdlecuddles BLC Challenge

[Widdlecuddles]

DAY1
Tom took my before pictures. YIKES!!! Our digital camera is cheap and the pictures weren't the clearest so you couldn't read the BL logo and I was a little blurry too. So I got out the regular camera and have to actually bring the film someone to be developed
The pics looked terrible... I guess that's what makes them good before pictures.
Printed out my essay last night and once I get the pics back and choose which one to lose I will get them all in the mail.
It's weird to explain... but I feel motivated. Maybe it's the excitement of a contest. Who knows.
I think it is great that they are doing this contest cause maybe a lot of people will take it seriously and lose some serious weight. Then BL is really impacting more people than just on the show.
This morning Tom also stepped on the scale and journaled his official start again weight. He is going to follow the points system for weight watchers. I am going to count calories for the BL diet plan (but I am also going to calculate points to see who they compare).
This morning has started pretty well. 4 hours in and I'm still motivated
Hope everyone else is having a great day!

Yay Nicky! I'm excited for you. I know you're going to do great. I think we just know, when everything is right. You just know that this is going to be it. You're going to do it! Best of luck to you!

Best of luck with this challenge. I know beginning pics stink; but just like they said on the show....you will never see that version of you again. Keep a copy to remind you how far you will have come in future months.

We are rooting for you!

My hubby is dropping off my entry at the post office today. I had duplicates made of the pics so I do have the before pics. Looking at the last night they really didn't look as bad as I expected. They looked bad, but at 300 + pounds they could look much worse.
Day 2 now and I am still motivated. I love contests and competing so I think this will be great for me.
I'm finally cutting my hours back a bit so I will work 9 hours instead of 10. That should help. I will still have a couple 10 hour days here and there, but until fall it won't be everyday.
Hope everyone has a great day! Gotta get back to work
