The Competition

At just the right moment, my workplace announced they would be holding a weight loss competition for all of us fat desk monkeys. For the next 12 weeks, they'll be providing us with nutritionists, personal trainers, gym access, and a giant carrot. The carrot is $1,000 each to the male and female who lose the highest percentage of body weight. You can also win money for being on a winning team, but I'm not really a team person-especially when there is sweat involved. I am very excited. Very. I had already been gearing up to go back on the South Beach diet and itching to exercise so much I've been dreaming about it. Unfortunately, that doesn't burn many calories, so bring on the personal trainers!

The first informational meeting is tomorrow morning. We get to find out the details and have our physical assessments. It should be fun interesting.
