weight watchers..lol

ok guys, my wife had a bad scare with her sugar this week, so we are going to change some things in our lifestyle to help us get in better shape and help her be able to manage her diabetes better...
I wanted to post this up to see if anyone wants to jump on the bandwagon and get in shape with us...
this is what we are doing...
Starting today we have cut out fast food completely and limiting ourselves to eating out once a month.

since we are in no situation to afford a gym membership, we broke out the Wii and playing the sports until we can break down and buy the fit..started out today playing boxing for 15 minutes, going to increase this gradually to an hour..its a great cardio workout!

we already drink only diet soda, but we are now buying skim milk and lowfat cheese and light butter...also adding more veggies and fruits to our meals.

cutting out snacks after 9pm

cutting out chips and cutting back on carbs from breads and pastas...

trying to drink more water and cut back on carbonated drinks...

thats where we are starting at...

every Friday I am going to post up how much weight i lost for the week, I would really like to see a bunch of you get in on this just to help me keep motivated..lol...so post up if you want to get in on this and what your plans are...

i think ill join... my mom had 2 treadmills so maybe i will use one since its to damn cold out for me to walk out side ha ha

i need to lose some damn weight, but i work crazy hours so it is tough. i actually just got a free gym membership thru work too, but probably will never have time to use it

i do alot of lifting and walking at work so i think im ok. i just need to eat better i think....

but cool Paco! thats cool shit that you and your wife are gonna do that. whats your goal weight?

I'm shooting for anything under 240...
had a slow/rough week getting into a routine and stuff...lost 1 lb...hoping for better results next week, may have to adjust some things if not...

losing 1 pound is 1 pound closer to your goal!! its a start!

I keep forgetting to update this thread...I have been so busy lately with doing pictures its just crazy!
anyway..I am still working on this...but with the schedule we have been keeping its been hard to not eat out some..anyhow, I have lost 5lbs so far...hopefully i can keep this up thru Christmas and New Years...lol
