January 24 Weight Loss this week -a little lateCamille lost another lbs and so did Melissa for a total of 2lbs this week. So far Meliss has lost 5lbs and Camille has lost 5.5lbs. Not bad since we have been slacking on the exercising. We are still eating right and taking our herbal weight loss formula. I am really hoping to add some exercising in this week. We have Jillian's DVD's and are hoping that will really start taking the weight off.

Camille lost 3lbs the first week and 1.5lbs this week. For a total of 4 1/2 lbs in two weeks.
We are eating well but could be getting more exercise in. Life with 4 kids 4 and under makes it very hard to exercise. We are eating right and taking our MD Herbal Weight Loss Formula (www.mdherbal.com ) daily. We hope to add more exercise in this week and not just call running after the kids exercise. We have been following a low/healthy carb diet. We are following a modified diet from Jillian Michael's book.
We are both very pleased with our weight loss so far. I hope we can continue this weight loss until we reach our goals! January 01 Why we are entering the contestWe decided to enter this contest because we really need to lose weight for our sake as well as for our 4 young children. The past 2 years we have neglected ourselves so we can put our children needs and our business first.
We plan on using Jillian Micahel's books and DVD's to get back in shape. We will also watch the Biggest Loser Couples for motivation and tips/advice. We also plan on using the Biggest Loser message boads to keep on track.
We feel that we should win this contest because we can be an inspiration to others. If we can lose weight while taking care of 4 kids 4 and under all with special needs, run a business and deal with all of the other things life throws at us then anyone can do it. Over the past 5 years we have had 4 kids, had 3 pregnancy losses, dealt with the death of Melissa's mom, lost two grandparents, struggled to open a business. have taken care of 4 kids with special needs and have done it all on our own with no outside help. It is time for us to put ourselves 1st for a change. And we know if we can survive all we have in the past 5 years that we can lose weight and meet our goals too! Our goals and why we are doing thisTogether we would like to lose a combined total of 65lbs. We would both like to tone up our bodies. Overall we would like to be healthy and make sure we are there for our kids.
Camille would like to lose 35lbs and tone her abs, arms and legs. Camille was fit for for most of her adult life. She ran in marathons, played softball and liked to bike ride. At 42 she is at her heaviest weight 165. She thinks the cause of her weight gain is eating with Melissa during her pregnancies, stress and lack of time to exercise and play sports. She wants to be able to keep up with her active children and be a fun active mom that her kids can be proud of. Camille is 5'7
Melissa would like to lose 30lbs and tone her abs, arms and legs. She is 29. Melissa was always tiny. At 5 feet tall (and a 1/2 an inch) she always weighed between 90 and 100lbs. When she hit the age of 20 she started having health problems and the weight started creeping on. By the time she was 22 she weighed 115lbs and was struggling not to gain anymore. She was dx with PCOS and the doctors blamed the weight gain on that. Due to the PCOS and other health problems Melissa was considered infertile. To concieve she would have to go through IVF and alternative herbal treatments. The IVF and meds did not help the weight and Melissa crept up to 120. She got pregant with twins that she lost (one at 2 months the other at 4 months). 3 months after the loss of the 1st set of twins Melissa was pregant with another set of twins. Sadly again she lost one of the babies. But at 36 weeks she delivered their 1st born son. She had gained 35lbs during that pregnancy and lost 15lbs after the baby was born. Before their son was a year old they started trying again. It took a while but Melissa became pregnant with triplets. The pregnancy was hard because of Melissa's height and small body frame. She had to consume 4,000 calories (of good foods) a day to insure that the babies would have the best chance at survial. Before giving birth at 31 weeks Melissa weighed in at 180lbs. It was worth it though because all 3 babies were born with great weights (3.6lbs, 4.0lbs and 4.1lbs). Melissa lost 30lbs after the babies were born bringing her weight to 150.
She has struggled the last 2 years and has lost another 19lbs. Melissa is currently 131lbs and can't seem to get the weight off. She would really like to lose another 30lbs and lose her "mommy tummy" as she likes to call it. She doesn't want to look good for someone who had triplets. She wants to look good period!
We would like to do something for us. Everything we do is for the kids and the good of the family. We have neglected ourselves the past two years |
