Clearly my NYE is crazy exciting. It's nearly 9:00 and instead of being super lame and crawling on into bed, I'm catching up on my favorite bloggers and scrolling through Facebook for the obligatory end-of-year #resolutions and #blessed posts. During all that excitement, I stumbled on one of my favorites and read about this here DietBet. I was all, "Sign me up!"
But for real, it didn't take much for me to talk myself into joining this game. A) I'm an easy sell, and I tend to go all-in pretty quickly, and B) I need to lose weight. My boring, dramatic back story is summed up like this...
2008--got fat trying to get pregnant
Later in 2008--got fatter once I got pregnant
NYE 2014--I'm not the proud (fluffy) mother of three precious kids 5 and under.
After each pregnancy, I've lost just enough weight to be able to honestly say I got rid of the pregnancy gain, but I've never gotten rid of that initial gain back in 2008. This is just the kickstart I need. Plus, I love winning stuff, especially money. Because that never happens, and I spent way too much on the aforementioned three kids for Christmas.
