Biggest Loser

I know, I know - I'm awful at this blogging thing. But it's all I can do to stay awake in the daytime after these torturous 2-3 hour workouts and then the rest of the day is focusing on what am I going to eat next and all the daily chores of running this household and taking care of my family. I will try to do better but can't make any promises.
It's been almost 3 weeks since I started my biggest loser competition and things are going well although I do not see the changes the way people tell me they see them. But aren't we all our own worst critics? Don't we all have that wicked voice in our heads saying...if only I looked this way or that way?
I also had some more pants that are falling off without unbuttoning them so I guess that's a good sign things are going in the right direction. I still am not getting on the scale unless she tells me to and I think I'm getting better at not worrying so much about the numbers (or at least that is what I'm trying to tell myself)
I did go out and buy a heartrate monitor the other day because it tells you how many calories you've burned during your workout as well as keeps up with your heartrate. It was hard for me to try to find my pulse and count the beats while huffing and puffing in between sets, ok? So see, I did really need this new little gadget. But during every workout it has said that I have burned between 875 - 1300 calories. Let me just say these are the toughest workouts I've ever experienced and makes me appreciate what the real biggest losers go through on tv. I've got a long way to go but I must keep on fighting the fat.
