Mamavation Monday-Move It & Lose It Challenge

Two weeks ago when I posted my Mamavation application I knew that if I was chosen as one of the next Mamavation Moms I would have a lot of hard work ahead of me. I wasn’t chosen but earth Footwear has challenged all of this round’s applicants to a Move It & Lose It Challenge and I am in it to win it!

WARNING The pictures in this post may scare you, they sure scared me. It is amazing how warped my sense of body image is. I cried after my husband took these pictures and I cringe every time I see them but…they are required for the challenge so…here they are.

Sorry you had to see those.

Ok, we also need to post a picture of our toes on the scale showing our current weight (since I am in desperate need of a pedicure and didn’t want to scare you, I wore my fuzzy pink socks). I ran into trouble though, my camera didn’t like to take a photo of all 3 numbers that were on the scale (hubby says it has something to do with the way the scale is lit) so…I took 2 pictures to get 1 weight…238 lbs. No weight loss but no weight gain either so I will be happy about that.

Ok now to my measurements…I so can’t believe I am posting all of this on the Internet…talk about accountability!! Bust: 48.5″ Waist: 43.5″ Hips: 56.5″ Each thigh: 30.75″ Each Arm: 15.5″. So there you have it.

My success last week was drinking my water I went from 24 oz a day to at least 48oz a day. This week my goal is 72oz a day.

My weaknesses last week were Easter candy, Hubby’s 3 birthday celebrations and not much exercise. This week my goal is at least 4 days a week of exercise for a minimum of 45 minutes each day and 1700 calories a day. I also want to try the new Subway Egg White Muffin Melt for breakfast this week.

If you are reading this on Monday don’t forget to join us tonight 8-10pm ET for the big reveal! The next 2 Mamavation Moms will be announced during the party!

Thanks to all of you who have commented and tweeted your support you don’t know how much it means to me!
