{ Weigh in...week one...}

Week one of our weight loss is done and over....so far so good. I lost 3 lbs.....yea me!!! Kimberly lost zero and is holding....that's ok....we have discussed some changes she can make going into week two so we will see....and if you need some inspiration (as we did this afternoon when we were contemplating ordering a small cheese pizza ) google Bob Harper (from the Biggest Loser)WOW....his yoga moves moved us and needless to say the remainder of our mid-afternoon snack got chucked into the trash

Team, if you haven't weighed in today and e-mailed me your loss (or gain....we'll all have those weeks) please do so that way I can keep track as we move closer to our team goal!

Go team go!

{ Fighting temptation....}



The holiday season is gearing up....are you ready?


Ok team....week one of our weight loss is underway! How is everyone doing?? Kimberly and I are staying on track....so far so good. Today I am going through sugar withdrawl, but I am hanging in there, nothing I can't handle right?


Speaking of sugar, why oh why did I start a diet right before the holiday season? What was I thinking???? Cheesecake, cookies, lattes....stop...I'm stopping. Ok...I am better now. So as we kick off the start to living a healthier life at this time of holiday abundance I have put together a list of helpful tips to get me through Thanksgiving or "Day of Food" as I like to call it and the rest of the eating season. Allow me to share them with you...
1.) Remember the holidays are about spending time with the people you care about, not the food.

2.) The first bite always tastes the best. So that is all I need...one bite.

3.) Plan for some excerise.

These three things will become my mantra for the next few weeks. So if you stop by the studio during the holidays and see me mumbling to myself, I am probably just trying to beat that mantra into my head, think nothing of it.

Good luck to all on our weight loss team, and remember if you have anything you'd like to share with the rest of us, leave a comment or e-mail me and I will pass it on. Don't forget to weigh in on Tuesday!
If anyone else would like to join us, you can do so at anytime....we will welcome you with open arms! E-mail your name & goal to me at elizabeth@kimberlysphotos.com

{ Lookin' fine in ' 09....}

"Change" It seems to be the buzz word of the moment so we here at PbK are talking about change too. NO, this has nothing to do with politics, we are talking about a weight change, a diet change...a lifestyle change. I am currently at my heaviest ever.
This is hard to admit, but I thought if I am feeling down and frumpy about myself
maybe others out there are too and we can all support each other and make some personal changes.
So goodbye belly rolls, double chins and chipmunk cheeks.

I would like to say I have no idea how I got like this,
but I do.....
the #2 meal at McDonald's
Grande Pumpkin Spice lattes
Chocolate covered everything...
the dirty little list goes on...


Kim wants to lose a few lbs. too.
I know, I know...her current weight is my
goal weight....but there are no judgements hear friends.
Everyone is welcome.
So this is what we are doing. We are forming a blog weight loss community. If you would like to join us e-mail me, elizabeth@kimberlysphotos.com, your first name and last initial, your weight loss goal, {mine is 30 lbs before we leave for our cruise on January 31st} before Tuesday November 11th. I will keep track of our groups progress and along the way you can count on updates, encouragement, recipes and challenges each Wednesday, and if anyone would like to share some encouraging, inspiring words, recipes or ideas share them with me and I will pass them along. With support we can be looking fine in '09!

Our first challenge is to admit we would like to improve ourselves and commit to helping and encouraging each other.

Choose to lose!
