Intro

Yesterday two sisters had a brain storm. After eating our weight in Easter chocolate we came together with a similar conclusion in an instant: "We better do something about our fat asses right NOW!" We've both struggled individually over a decade with our weight and this time we are teaming up to battle the bulge. The decision to blog about it in an open forum, instead of the Weight Watchers site is so we can be brutally honest. This is going to be one hilarious weight loss trip.

Week 16 Weigh in for Sister2

Well lather me up in butter and call me corn on the cob! Because this week's weigh in was SWEET! On the scale, off the scale, on the scale with the left foot first, on the scale with the right first first, slow approach heel to toe, then a quick get on... either way the results were still awesome this week: 5 pounds DOWN. @#%$& YEAH! This week I really worked for it. After Week 15 gain and being loosey-goosey with my points, measuring and binging... this week I stopped the cracker chips and replaced them with baby carrots, stopped the weight watchers desserts and had yogurt, got back to the gym and swim in a 70° pool determined to earn some activity points. Voila! 5 pounds down.

To recap a few things. Sister1, I am now adding some info to the weekly weigh in stats. Take a look:

Phase 2 week 16 weight loss: 5 pounds
TOTAL Phase 2 weight loss: 6 pounds

Phase 1 total: 26 pounds
TOTAL 16 week weight loss: 31 pounds

I think it'll be important for us to see each Phase total as we go along.

NEXT: there is only 8 weeks left to Phase 2. That's it! We both know how hard Phase 3 is going to be. Holiday, after holiday and winter. So, making Phase 2 a success and staying on track is more important than ever. It's healthy and safe to loose 2 pounds a week. Times that by the 8 weeks we have left and both of us could potentially loose 16 pounds by our Phase 2 October finish. Setting goals Sister1! I know you can do it and we are going to do it together.

Now I just had a wonderful idea. When we hit our goals in Spring and the year is over we are having professional pictures taken of us together. Pictures we love of our new thin bodies.
