Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner
Posted by SuperwifeJenny on October 13th, 2011. Filed under: F**king Awesome, Family, Project Ellie Belly Be Gone, SUPERWIFE JENNY, This is Me.Looks like I’ll be eating a lot of chicken dinners over the next four months in order to become a “winner winner”!
Adam and I decided last weekend that we’re going to have a full-on competition to see who can get the hottest for our trip to Hawaii in February. While pigging out on churros and guacamole and Tony Roma’s ribs in California, we set our parameters:
- Whoever loses the highest percentage of body weight by the day we leave wins.
- Winner gets $500 to spend however they’d like – no whining or bitching from the loser (this means that when I win I can spend $500 on makeup or shoes without having to explain myself – YESSSSSSSS)
- No crazy unhealthy fasting (*sigh*); nutritious foods and old-fashioned excercise only
- Weigh-ins will be every Monday, and we’re keeping a log posted on the fridge
We did the math - it’s fortunate (and fair) that we both are wanting to lose about the same percentage of weight. I’ll omit Adam’s numbers for the time being, because I didn’t ask his permission if I could publish his weight on the internet… but here are mine:
- 10/10 Starting Weight: 147 (ohgodpleasedon’tjudgemeeventhoughIgavebirthlikeayearago)
- 2/9 Goal Weight: 122
- Goals: -25lbs, -17%
So… it’s settled. I am going to be so effing hot in 4 months it’s ridiculous. I’ve spent the entire last 4 days just fantasizing about myself. Really. Fantasizing about being so hot that I have to fan myself with the 500 one-dollar bills I’m going to make Adam give me. Also, the benefit here is that Adam is going to be SMOKIN’ hot as well… he’ll just be a smokin’ hot loser (although is he really “losing” if he gets to parade around Maui with a gorgeously thin and fit bikini-clad trophy wife??).
WISH ME LUCK!! (I’m already at 145)

Wow! You were such a hottie on your wedding day! But don’t most brides wear a wedding gown? No wonder everyone was looking at your while you walked down the aisle.
Good luck on the weight loss contest. Remind Adam that it doesn’t count if you lose weight by sawing off a limb.

Dammit, Cathy… Don’t go giving him any ideas! :)
Lol… The pic is from around 1am on our wedding night. We rented out a giant house on a lake and had all of our close friends stay in it with us. After the DJ left and we closed down our outdoor dance floor, we all jumped in the hottub on the deck!
