I posted over a month ago that we were having a weight loss competition before our next trip to WDW. We've just finished 5 weeks (4 weeks to go). Gene is in the lead with 23 pounds lost. I have lost 18 and Justin has lost 13.
The biggest weight loss for each of us was the first week, I think because of water weight loss (Gene lost 10 pounds the first week, the creep!). Since then we've been losing 1-3 pounds a week.
We've mostly just changed our way of eating. The snack bowl is filled with fruit instead of cakes or chips, we're eating more salads and low fat foods. In fact, Rachel isn't even in the competition and she has lost 11 pounds from not eating junk!
20 pounds doesn't sound like much until you imagine carrying around a large bag of dog food and then putting it down. I think we're doing pretty good.
Gene is close enough to his ideal weight that he's about to "hit a wall" and expects his weight loss to slow down. I'm ready to pull ahead and win this competition!!!!
