I’ve done some crazy things in my lifetime…things that usually get me in trouble. However, last night I did the CRAZIEST thing I have ever done and you know what? I bet it is also the best thing I could have done. So what did I do?
I got on the scale…IN FRONT OF MY HUSBAND!
I know. I know. Why in the hell did I do that? For one simple reason. I want to lose weight and I just don’t have the will power or motivation to stick to a freaking diet. So if I humiliate myself by getting on the scale in front of the one person in this world that I care about what he thinks of me and how I look, then maybe that will be motivation for me to stick to the diet. I surely don’t want to gain in front of him. My starting weight was humiliating enough.
So now, every Sunday I will be weighing in with my husband present to witness my weight loss or weight gain and then I will blog about my week and what kinds of things I ate, any exercise I may have done, and how much I lost or gained. So look for “Losing it with Leah Week 1” this coming Sunday!
I will also be putting up a linky. If you want to join me in my weight loss journey, then post your own “Losing it with…” post and leave your link on my linky.
Good Luck!!

I found this quote over the weekend and it has resonated with me ever since…It's SO true!!!
“If you focus on results, you will never change. If you focus on change, you will get results.”
I got it from Ronisweigh.com. Her blog is awesome. That quote has now been taped on my fridge, pantry, bathroom mirror, computer–everywhere!!! I have to change then I will see results.

That's so funny. I just read that quote at my son's school today!! Love it and I too wrote it down and taped it to my steering wheel!

You are a brave girl! I hate admitting what I weigh to anyone.
Best of luck!
