SCALE TALK  |  FRESHMAN 15 CHALLENGE WITH DIETBET.COM

Hey guys!  So today is my second weigh-in since last week, and unfortunately I GAINED weight (currently at 155.4 lbs).  BUT I can't say that I'm surprised after two weeks of midterm exams and papers and BINGING! O.o

But I've got a bit of exciting news, and a challenge for everyone that I'm REALLY excited about starting November 1st!

The challenge is called the Freshman 15 Challenge, and that's right, you guessed it, the goal is to lose 15 pounds by December 31st!  Who's in?

Here's the link to join the challenge:  http://bit.ly/PyMX6A

By using the website www.DietBet.com, we have 2 periods of competition (4 weeks each), the first starting November 1st, and the second starting December 1st.  We all weigh-in at the beginning of the month, and if you want, like me, weigh-in every week on either Thursdays or Fridays.

I'll be posting another video with more information next Friday on Scale Talk, but I hope you guys are doing well!  Look for another video in the Myths and Truths series next week!

Thanks!

I was planning to photograph my food today.  For some reason, I thought that would be interesting... yeah.  Well, I forgot about everything except lunch.  What we have here is some incredibly boney mackerel, rice that I put in my mystery soup, and some cucumber muchim, which was my favorite part.  Lunch at school is definitely my hardest meal to track properly.  Luckily My Fitness Pal has a surprising amount of Korean food in their database.

In other news, I got my new scale and found out it only measures in kilograms.  Which is fine.  It will just take some getting used to.  And I signed up for SarahFit's diet bet.  My starting weight for that (which I just checked at 8:30 pm) is 89.2 kg or 196.6 lb.

I am planning a fresh start today.  Actually it's 5:26 AM in Korea, so I will go to sleep before the fresh start begins.  The reason I'm posting this late? I just joined a diet bet at dietbet.com.  There are about ten hours left to join, so I thought I would post the link in case anyone else is interested. Here it is!  The bet is $15 and right now there are only six players.

If you don't know what dietbet.com is you can find all the rules here. What I like about it is that everyone can win.

Here are my starting stats:

Highest: 245 lb Last Time: 210.0 lb Today: 208.2 lb (-1.8 lb) Total Loss: 36.8 lb
