Who Are We and Why Are We Headed for Shamrock?

We met online in 2005 trying to--what else--lose weight. We've had our ups and downs along the way, but we're not where we want to be. This is our journey to get fit and healthy. We invite you to follow us as we "exercise" our way across the country--track our progress on the map to Shamrock below-- in an effort to each lose 50 pounds by the end of 2009 and adopt a healthier lifestyle along the road.

Where will we go once we reach our goals? The sky's the limit... but we're thinking Greece would be nice.

Victories: keeping damage to a minimum at dinner. I'd planned to split my veggie burger with Gidget but as it turned out, I wasn't that hungry and she order a chicken wrap that was gross so I didn't eat it.
Defeats: too much trail mix/fat

Observations: I'm starting to realize that I need to find a time to exercise (with no kids to consider) and stick to it, rain or shine.
