The Challenge...

Welcome to our blog! We are a bio-mom (Stephanie) and step-mom (Trisha) who have put our differences aside and are going to join forces and lose the weight we have been struggling with for some time. We have a competitive streak between us, and we are going to turn it around to positive energy and benefit ourselves and our family.



We will be having fun weekly challenges to help keep us motivated as well as weekly weigh ins. The weigh in will be by percentage. (Loss divided by weight before loss = percentage)



We will blog about our experiences, our losses and our gains.

That's so funny because last night I was trying on pants and shorts that I couldn't wear at the beginning of the summer, and totally thinking that I needed to update the measurements! THIS is exactly what I was saying about trusting and having faith in that your hard work is changing things :))))
