Let's get the ball rolling!

This was us in April.  So happy! So in love! So fat!

 

 

And to be honest...that's still us today. But hopefully not for long!  Well, I mean, the happy and love parts can stay, but the fat's gotta go! 

 

We have said to one another since we got married, "Oh man, we gotta do something about our weight!" We would agree and a month and two doctors visits later, we'd have the same conversation.  Well, how do you break that rut?  We decided going public would be our best option.  Let's let our friends and family in on the conversation, invite their encouragement and support as we work the process and their  **gentle** chiding when we're not staying true to our commitment. 

 

So, that's why you're here today.  We're starting our journey and we welcome you aboard!

 

Along with the welcome, though, come a few ground rules:

1. This is for us. Not for you.  If you don't want to see our "At-Our-Worst" pictures, Biggest Loser weigh-in style, block this web adress from your browser, because they are coming.  If you don't want to hear our sob stories when times are tough, or celebrate with us when things are good, you might want to avoid this blog.  And for that reason...
2. We'll be monitoring comments.  We will be monitoring, but not censoring without cause.  Criticism is welcome, but be nice.  If we interpret your comments to come from a place of spite or meanspiritedness, they will be gone. 

So, this is our introduction of our blog.  A goals and mission post will be coming soon.  We look forward to sharing this with you. We look forward to being held accountable by you.  Ultimately, thank you for your help and support!
