The Salad Caper

So a good friend and I will be launching Project 20/20 on August 1. Basically, it is a mission to lose 20lbs in 20 weeks (5 months) and we are going to be there for each other and challenge each other. We are going to do it just by ourselves and post pictures, measurements for each other to see. To sweeten the deal, for every pound lost, we need to set aside a dollar and whoever loses the most by December, gets all the money.

We are both so out of shape that we need to do this for our health. Not for anything else, really. It does pay to have a better body so we can buy the clothes we want. I just went out shopping for clothes (I need new ones) and to get our Christmas outfits and I was depressed to find out I have gone up another size! It is definitely not good news. Fashion Polls say that overweight women, no matter how pretty, don’t really look good in any dress they wear. Plus our clothes choices are so limited.

I need to stop and nip this weight gain in the bud. So later today I need to take my measurements, record my weight and take some pictures for the “before” shot because we are starting soon!
