The Diet Logs

In January, the Biggest Loser will have a special show that will feature couples losing weight. It’s inspired me to try to lose weight with my husband. I’ve come up with an incentive to keep us on track since there won’t be a $250,000 prize.

We will both pick out an item that is around $300 that we really want. Next we will set our goal weight. After the end of a few months, whoever has lost the biggest percentage of weight gets to buy their item. I’m hoping to have something tangible will help keep us on track. It seems we never splurge on ourselves, so this will be a great way to do something for us and to lose weight.

The biggest challenge with losing weight will be to exercise and stay focused. I plan to print out a picture of the item I want and then tape it to the fridge, pantry, and anywhere else I can think of that will help me avoid eating when I’m not hungry. Hopefully it will help. It’s at least worth a try.
