Have you noticed my weight loss counter?I've really struggled with keeping an exercise routine since moving to Washington. For one thing, there is no space in this house to exercise. Second, I'm not as good about getting out and exercising in bad weather like everyone else around here. And third, I was really spoiled with a great Gym in Arizona and can't find one around here worth going to. So I've gained 16 pounds since moving here. I now have a really good incentive to loss this weight. Mark has surprised me with a really good birthday gift this year. He is taking me to Hawaii!!! No we are not made of money...this trip will be almost free. Anyway, I have 3 months to lose this weight so I look and feel good in a bathing suit. My thought is, if I have this counter up where I can see it almost everyday and know that others can see it too, then maybe I will be more inclined to lose the weight. Time will tell...
Thanks Mark, for the surprise trip and giving me enough time to get back to the size I love. Here's to losing those 16 pounds and 1 1/2 pant size!

That's awesome that he's taking you to Hawaii! Good luck with the weight loss....I can't tell you've gained a thing.
I'm having the same problem up here. I think it's the weather. I finally hired a trainer. Good luck-and sooo jealous about Hawaii!
Hawaii!! Great!! You're going to have such a great time and I know you'll look amazing! I have gained some weight living in Jersey too. It's so cold and cloudy and dreary a lot of the time that its hard to be motivated. It's weird how the weather effects you that way. Let me know what you are doing to get the weight off. I could use some tips.
First of all- I didn't even notice that you had gained any weight. Second- I am way jelous that you get to go to Hawaii (not the bad jelous where i am mad or anything- just normal jelous) good luck on your weight loss endevor!!
Holy cow--you used to be skinnier than you are NOW?!? I know what you mean about exercising when the weather is bad. BLEH. I feel like that all winter long. But I'm so excited for you being able to go to Hawaii!!! You will LOVE IT!!!!! That is awesome.
You can do it Karen! That's actually a good idea. I might steal it from you!
Whatever!! You do NOT need to lose any weight, let alone 16 lbs. You crazy chica.
And Hawaii? Awesome.
karen i'm with you but double that. good luck! i'm off to a good start so far here is to keeping it up!
you can do it and you'll be rockin' your string binkini in Hawaii (kidding)
so Mark told you... are you so stoked?
I did notice the counter, but thought surely that couldn't apply to you.?! I have a hard time believing you need to lose weight, but I can see the motivation in getting ready for a trip to Hawaii. How FUN for YOU!!Looking forward to those birthday pictures.
Hawaii will be so awesome!! Good idea about the counter. I am sure you will do it!
