So it’s the end of the 3 month Family Biggest Loser Challenge. And guess who won… ME! Don’t you love how I organized a way for me to lose weight at get $10 each out of my family?! Wahoo! But my niece Becky did come in all too close for second place, followed by another niece Laurel for third! (P.S. Who else is loving this season of Biggest Loser? Who you think is going to win?)
As I’m super happy with the 12 pounds I’ve lost so far, I’d still like to be one size smaller, going for another 10 lbs! So gratefully Allison, over at Petit Elefant, is helping me keep fit with her Fitness Challenge and Thursday Fit Tips!! Check it out and join the fun.

Check out our “fit fridays in the mommyhood” over on http://www.luvinthemommyhood.com. this week is workout videos and last week was the michelle obama/kelly ripa arm workout :)
12 pounds – woo hoo! That is so awesome!!! Did I tell you about Amber’s get-together on Wednesdays called Extreme Makeover: Me Edition? A group of us are supporting each other as we either try to lose weight or just get healthy. It’s been really fun. You should come over and give us some tips on how you did it! amberfilkins.blogspot.com
I’m trying to get my daughter motivated, but it’s hard!
Congratulations!

I actually want Tara to win! I can relate to her stress and I think she has put in the time to really make it a lifestyle change and not a quick fix. If it can’t be her, I want Sione.
Great job!! :) I think the start of the year is the hardest time to lose weight, but there is nothing like a little “healthy competition” to get a person motivated! And instead of going for those last few pounds I wanted to lose I went and got pregnant so I could eat and eat! *blushing*
Congrats!
Congrats!
I want to know who died and made Ron the Godfather, he has too much control for my taste. What is up with his stomach? Did he have a tummy tuck at some point. It weirds me out.
My sister did a biggest looser in Arizona. While she didn’t win she posted this yesterday http://chaos-and-love.blogspot.com/. We are so excited for her. Loosing weight is hard. I recently lost about 23 and have another 15 to go.
Way to go!! Congrats!!
I am loving this season of Biggest Loser. I hope that Kristin will win it, but I have a feeling it’s Tara’s to lose at this point. Although I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see Sione sneak up and take it all. As for the at-home winner, I’m definitely thinking Nicole at this point. I hate that she got to come back to the ranch for such a short time AND gain while she was there, but clearly she is motivated and working hard, so I know she is going to do extremely well.
Speaking of Biggest Loser, I have been doing the Biggest Loser Boot Camp DVD and the Weight Loss Yoga DVD. Both are by Bob. They are GREAT!! I tried Jillian’s 30-Day Shred via “On Demand” with Comcast and it was a great workout, but it was really too intense for me. I like that Bob’s work-outs are intense, but doable.
I absolutely love your blog and looking forward to my daily updates in my inbox! I’ve gotten so many great ideas for my kids! I gave you a “Lemonade Stand Award” on my blog:

Congrats. Nothing better than feeling that accomplishment (especially when you are wearing a smaller pant size!). Way to go… that takes alot of determination and self control!
Congratulations! I’m embarking on a mini-weight loss challenge myself, but my only competition is myself :) I’m hoping my husband might give me $10 though when I finish! Did you follow any plans or have any guidelines to follow? I’m a Weight Watchers point counter myself. And I’m trying to beef up the exercise. Good luck on the rest that you want to lose!
Thanks for the congrats!! Now I just need to stay motivated to keep it off. Maybe we should start a Blogging Biggest Loser Contest!!
And I too think Tara should win it! She works her butt off.
OOH! If you decide to do a blog challenge, I’m in!! :D
Congrats Marie, that’s fabulous. Yes, join my fitness challenge for sure, we can lose the last 10 together!
