I saw the date today, and felt a dire need for change, and so the Anniversary Challenge was born!
In exactly 2 months from today, my husband and I will celebrate 17 years of marriage. I only see it fitting to then make it my “shoot for the moon” goal to lose 17 pounds by our 17th anniversary. Fun, right?
That’s a big goal, so my first and more realistic goal is to lose 8 pounds since this challenge is 8 weeks long in length.
Even if I just reach this first goal of 8 pounds lost, it will still be a win because it will get me down below my Springtime weight (after weeks and weeks of summer splurges).
This is my first, brave attempt at a weight-loss challenge since my last failed attempt this Spring. I gained 6 pounds since then. A lot happened toward the end of that challenge, and a lot has happened since then. I’m sure a lot will continue to happen as we continue on. Let’s give it a try, anyway!
