another couple in the challenge

Vicki

My husband Kent and I are another couple who have entered the "Trim to Win" challenge. While we won't share our numbers with each other, let alone with the rest of you, suffice to say that we both hope to lose at least 15% of our current body weight. We're older than Jeremiah and Amber. Our kids are grown and we have 1 grandchild so far. We both used to be athletic, but over the years of being desk jockeys, raising the family, making time for community activities, dealing with aching joints, blah, blah, blah, we've both overweight and out of shape. At our age, serous health issues are a major part of motivation to become more fit and trim. My husband is a junk & fried food junkie, but digestive problems have finally convinced him that he can't eat that way anymore. My biggest problem is I have a sweet tooth. However, we're both still competitive, so when I told him I was going to enter this weight loss challenge, he said "I'll do it too." And, of course, we have a little side bet between the 2 of us as well. Even if I don't win this challenge, I will win by losing weight and becoming more healthy. Rah! Good luck to everyone!
