Chelle and Trisha

Occupation

Homemaker(s)

Location

Garland, TX/Dobson, NC

We are two friends who live in different states. Chelle is from Texas and I am from N.C. We met on MySpace doing one of our favorite things we do best. Thats Tagging! We have watched Biggest Loser ever since it aired! We both have struggled with our weight, off and on since giving childbirth. Now it's time to change that with the Million Pound Match-Up! We are DETERMINED to reach "goal" and keep the weight off!! We are motivating one another via computer and telephone. As of right now, Chelle has been my biggest supporter and likewise I have been there for her! I dont know what I would do without her! I know she's in Texas and I'm in NC but just to think we have a chance to meet each other one day and hopefully it will be when we go to the next Biggest Loser show at the end of this contest! Our journey is just now beginning and we plan to exercise, eat healthy and live to the best of our best ability so that we can keep up with our children, husbands and grandchildren.

Reasons We Feel WE Should Win Million Pound Matchup?

We really have no reasons why we, in particular, should win compared to everybody else. There are no losers, we are all WINNERS no matter what! Trish and I are just two girls who have struggled with weight issues for a number of years, sometimes losing weight the "wrong" way. There have been many ups and many downs and this contest has given us the opportunity to continue along on our journeys, joining together and reaching our "goal" with a wonderful group of people.

All Small Losses Add Up to be Big Losses! By Chelle

So they say but it sure is a bummer when you work hard all week and stay within your points and only have a .2 loss! My WI was today and that was my loss...I'm guessing it's because of the exercise, I'm sure I'm losing inches and toning which is causing me not to see any loss on the scale. I am going to continue to work hard this week and hopefully next week will be extra special for me:)

Weekends are ALWAYS tough but I managed:) by Chelle

Hope everybody had a wonderful weekend! We had a weekend at home, watching lots of football games....socialized with friends, ate great food and had a wonderful time! By the end of Friday evening, I had 28 flexie points in my "bank"...by the end of Saturday evening...they were gone!!! Poof!! They are there to use but the foods I chose to use them on..made me retain some water retention come Sunday morning:( However, I told myself yesterday morning that......I was going to be absolutely GREAT and that I was! Stayed within my points, drank 96 ozs. of water and this morning...being my WI day, I am 4lbs. lighter!!! I continue to feel better and better each and every day!!! Can hardly wait to see what my new WI brings me:)

1-18-08 Here it is Friday and I ended the week with my usual 2 mile walk! I'm continuing to walk with a 3% incline and at a pace of 3.5 mph! The weekend is here....a break for me until Monday:) Hugs!

1-16-08 Another two successful days of my daily exercise! 2 miles yesterday and another 2 today...except for today, I bumped up my pace to 3.5 mph! I've noticed that I have much more energy than ever before:)

1-14-08 Began my day at 3am this morning! Had to bring my hubby to work and then home for a 2 mile walk on my treadmill:) Earned myself 3 AP's at a 3% incline. What a great way to start a wonderful OP week:)

1-11-08 A wonderful 2 mile powerwalk on my treadmill to end the work week at a 3% incline! That and some household chores will rack me up a few AP's!!

1-10-08 What a great start to a brand new day! A 2 mile walk on my pro-form:) I power walked most of it with a 3% incline. I have found that if I walk on an incline, I do not get shin splints!! YEAH!!!

1-9-08 Typical routine!! 2 miles walked on my treadmill except this time at a 4% incline for the duration of my walk. Also followed with 50 crunches...my tummy really needs the help!

1-8-08 2 miles walked on my treadmill!
