Tonight chatting with a friend of mine, we both declared our desire to lose weight — almost the same amount of numbers in the same amount of time. Mine is to lose weight for basic training with the faint hope I can go back. Hers is so she can look hawwwwwwt in a ball gown for a fancy event coming up.

We’re both military, right? We’re both competitive.

And, the challenge is on!

We’ll occasionally share our numbers with each other (nothing concrete, we each are going to do our own thing) and our arbitrary date will be mid-April. We both hope to lose between 30 to 40 pounds. We both agree however, that inches lost will be our main indicator of success. So, we’ll have to figure out something!

She may be able to lose weight more quickly with the cardio aspect which means I will need to focus losing my weight through other means, such as nutrition until I’m at a point where I can do more cardio.

I’m pretty excited about this, especially because I know I’m gonna win.

Just sayin’ my friend, just sayin’….
