Couldn't bring myself to do it

So today is the last day of January, and in a blog a while back about weight loss I said I would need an extension on 1/1/100....maybe to the end of January. Well it is here now and I can't bring myself to step on that damn scale. I'm scared of what it is going to say! I know it is not going to read 100 pounds lost, but I feel like it will say 85 pounds lost. Again. My sticking point. Everyone who has tried to lose weight has landed on a plateau from time to time, mine just seems to be like an incredibly LOOOOOOOONG plateau. I have tried to mix things up a little, I started lifting weights (light weight, high # reps) to try to boost my metabolism. And I have also added a bunch of those awful sit up things to my daily routine. I hate them. I hate them more than anything I think! Anyway, hopefully they will help out a little too. All I know is my muscles are all sore, pretty much from my head to my toes!

So I keep chugging along, I keep trying to break this 85 pound barrier. I'll keep you posted, in the mean time I need a new name for my weight loss project. 1/1/100 isn't working for me since I don't want to wait until January 2009 for that! And I don't want to keep changing the date like I did when I suggested 1/31/100, plus it lacks that panache. Any ideas? Something that incorporates 100 pounds, that's pretty much my only requirement. Hit me up with your suggestions!

Two pictures below I took today. They are of me in a pair of suit pants from the suit that I wore to my job interviews in Omaha and in Rochester. Pretty crazy huh?!?

Good for you! Those are great pictures! That chick from TBL a couple seasons ago has nothing on you! You're obviously the biggest loser in Utah! Oh, and you've lost some weight, too. Ba dum bum!
