Our Essay

From the very beginning "The Biggest Loser" has been such an inspiration for the both of us. Our weight has been a constant struggle for the both of us. Chris was skinny through his childhood and youth but soon began to struggle with his weight as he got older. This problem has gotten considerably worse as the years have gone on. For me it has been a struggle since I was a small child. Watching "The Biggest Loser" has helped us realize that we can in fact accomplish what we dreamed of for so long. We have wanted to go on the show since the first season but never saw that dream realized. So when the opportunity to be a part of the Million Pound Match Up, we could not pass it up. Our reason for participating are simple. WE want to Loose some major weight. WE want to change our lifestyle. WE want to live healthy and productive lives. And the only way to do that is to loose weight and get healthy. So we took "The Biggest Loser" up on the challenge. During this competition we have been motivating each other like never before. For once we have a common goal and are seeing it through. WE are in the right mindset for once. Our goals that we are trying to accomplish are plain and simple: To Loose weight! WE are counting calories and watching fat grams. WE are working out and trying to live a more active lifestyle. WE both have our own reasons for doing this. I want to be healthy and live a productive life. And dad wants to loose the weight so that he will be alive to see his children get married and have grandchildren. With the help of each other and the support of "The Biggest Loser" and Million Pound Match Up and everyone involved with the contest we will accomplish these very goals. It would be so amazing to WIN this contest but if not we will still always be eternally gratful to everyone at "The Biggest Loser" for motivating us to be healthy and reaching our goals.

Our final blog

Well it seems just like yesterday that dad and I were starting this million pound challenge....And now here we are at the end. In these last few months we have both accomplished a great deal. Dad is finally back in the 200s and I'm just 5 pounds away from being under 200. A lot of people around us didn't think we could do it. But it was with the motivation of watching The Biggest Loser and the support of the people in this competition that kept us going. And though we have accomplished so much, there is still a lot more goals to achieve. Though this competition is at an end, our weight loss will continue. But we truly believe that this competition is what has motivated us and has gotten us this far. When we first entered this contest it seemed like we hit so many road blocks. But having each other and the Million Pound Match up there to keep us accountable made us that much more successful. We both had tried so many times to loose weight, but everytime we seemed to be faced with failure. This time we are looking success in the face and loving it. We joined this competition to motivated us and to try and win a trainer....and we got so much more out of it. We have gained confidence in our selves and have seen it in each other. We have learned that it takes work, but hard work pays off. We have learned that we can do it. That we can accomplish our weight loss goals.  We just had to believe in ourselves....This competition has also brought dad and I closer together. Through this we have started to talk more about things in the past that have contributed to our emotional eating habits. It has brought up some things that we once never talked about and through this we have healed and grown from it. It has helped us to get to the root of why we turn to food and where it all started. And how we could change our past habits. I'm not going to lie, it has not been easy and nor will it ever be easy. It's something that myself and my dad will struggle with for the rest of our lives. But this competition has made us realize that it is possible for us to keep going and to remain strong. We will forever be grateful for this competition and to the show The Biggest Loser. We think that it is for these reasons that we should win...Because we have not only been successful in loosing weight, but because we have grown and gotten to the root of why we are overweight. We hope that you will choose us because though we have gotten this far there is still much more to go and we can use the help along the way. Thank You for this opportunity and for changing our lives. The Biggest Loser and The Million Pound Match up will forever be in our hearts and we will forever be gratful for the opportunity......

Tomorrow

Well tomorrow is March 11 and we have until midnight so we will have up those video blogs from each of us. As well as our profile pictures of us now and our final weigh in and words. It's been a rough last couple of weeks and we have not had the chance to really work on our page but please don't mistake that as we have given up or are not commited. That is not the case, we are so dedicated. But unfortunately between me not being able to workout due to back problems and other sicknesses it has been hectic. But that's what comes along with running your own business. So we will wrap it up tomorrow and catch the page up......It's been a great journey and though the contest is ending.....our weightloss journey will continue and we hope everyone else continues on as well. Don't give up no matter how this contest turns out....we love everyone involved and the Biggest Loser for this contest which has inspired and motivated so many of us....Until tomorrow....God Bless!!!

Food Journel

Well since I was out sick last week I was unable to update our food and exercise blog. And unfortunately dad and I did not write down our daily food and exercise. So there will be a space of about a week that we don't have recorded. But sometimes you just can't help that sort of thing. We will have our weigh in by tomorrow or Wednesday. I'm afraid that with me being unable to workout or really move around last week that I will have a bad weigh in this week. Hopefully I just maintained my weight and not gained anything. Dad should be under 300 lbs which is so awesome and I'm so proud of him. Also the much talked about video blogs for us will be up soon. Its just been a rough couple of weeks for the both of us. But this whole journey has been so awesome and we are so glad that we are apart of this.....I guess that's it for now.

Sickness

Well since last Friday I have not been able to do nothing but lay on the couch. I had to go to the emergency room with my back hurting. I'm stilling hurting but its not as severe. So therefore I have not had the time to get on our page and do anything. Dad and mom have been running the diner with just the two of them so its been impossible for dad to get on and update the page. So the video blogs and our food diary will be off. I'm hoping I will be able to do all that next week to catch us up. This is the worst time for this to happen to me and it is so aggrevating.....I'm so frustrated because my weight loss is at at stand still for now.
