January 28 Nickie's Blog: Weigh In Week 2Hey everyone! This is week 2 for me and here are my results. Starting Weight: 162 Current Weight: 160 Week's Weight Loss: -2 Total Weight Loss: -3 January 21 Nickie's BlogOkay, an update. I have lost 1 pound so far, putting me at 162lbs. Yay! I am happy with that. A loss is a loss, but it may have been more. I overindulged twice last week and didn't exercise as much as I planned. This week I'll be in the process of moving, so I hope I lose. I don't plan on packing my dvds until the last minute. Hopefully we'll be out by the weekend!!! I may be offline for a few days. January 19 Nickie's Blog: MovingHey everyone! Today has been a great day so far. I have to start writing down everything I put in my mouth. I need to determine my caloric and fat intake. Forgot to today, but I plan on starting tomorrow. I went to the store and bought a notebook especially. Today I had an orange and water for breakfast, a Greek salad for lunch, some almonds for a snack, and more water. Not sure what dinner will hold for me. I'm trying to lower my calories to 1200 a day. Also, I'll be in the process of moving this week. I'm still planning in my workouts, but things will be hectic. We want to be out of here by Feb. 1st....well, before then to prevent having to pay more rent. I may be offline for a few days. I have to get my phone/dsl service moved asap. So, if you don't hear from me, that's the reason. January 17 Nickie's Blog I'm feeling heavy. I haven't looked at the scale since Monday and I'm trying my best to not look at it. I feel it might be because TOM is around the corner. Things I have noticed this week is I'm adding salt to my foods. I've been doing this for a while, blind habit, but today I caught myself doing it. So, I'm now watching my salt intake. I've never added salt to my food before and I'm wondering why now.... It may be the cause of me feeling heavy. I'm hoping that this won't ruin next Monday's weigh in. I work this weekend, but I plan on still doing my workouts in hopes to make a difference on Monday. I'm a little worried. January 14 The Basics!The Million Pound Match Up Basic Questions! The Relationship Between Partners: Me [Heather] & Nickie met online roughly around mid October. We both had Myspace pages set up for our Weight Loss Struggles and Achievements and we have been supporting each other since then. We don't live in the same state but enjoy having the company of each other knowing that we are going through the same thing! Full Length Photos of Team Members: Heather's picture location & Date - Montego Bay, Jamaica on December 29, 2007 I'm not sure if the picture is actually going to show up or not. I need to fool around with this thing and figure out how everything works. There's no button that says to add the picture I *Browsed*. Nickie's picture location & Date - Royston, GA on December 20, 2007 Weight Loss Goals Per Team Member: Heather - I wasn't always heavy growing up. I was an athlete, and as soon as I hit college I was done sports and I gained nearly 45 pounds the years of college and following college. From October 2007 until December 27, 2007 I lost a total of 26 pounds. Weighing now at 148 pounds, I would like to push myself further by ultimately weighing 120lbs. Nickie - I've always had the athlete, dancers body growing up. I was very active in school. Once school was over, the weight came. I've had problems since around the age of 19, going up and down. I got my weight under control, but over the past three years, I've let things go. My goals are to finally have a healthy relationship with food, lower my stress levels and blood pressure, and to also get into the 120s. I'm also wanting to become a runner, something I've wanted since I was in high school. With that said, I'm wanting to enter in a 5k sometime this year too. Why We Entered: The Biggest Loser has been changing lives for 4 years now. Every day for the last few years that I've watched this show, I've sat there thinking why can't I do this too? These people are struggling just like we are, and if they can put themselves out there on national tv then we can do it in the comfort of our own homes. I look up to these people, so many Americans just see them as tv characters. But to us, they are real people, with real struggles and to us, they are an inspiration. They are a step in our right direction. We joined the Million Pound Match up because we want to be able to prove to others that they CAN do it. That no matter how much weight you want to lose it can be achieved with a little hard work and dedication. Most importantly, we want to prove to ourselves that anything we put our minds too can be achieved. {This will be updated once my partner & I are able to both sign on here.
