Blog Entry 18 of 22 Changing My Thinking
I know how to eat healthy, but often make unhealthy choices. And, exercise... what's that? I sporatically exercise and make attempts at eating healthy. That's better than nothing, right? It's a beginning.

A $300 bet
Contributed by: Julie Robinson   on 6/27/2006

Two of my friends and I are in a diet contest. We each put up $100.00 and so whoever wins gets $300.00. Not a life changing winning amount like $3 million or $3 billion. What I do know is that even if I had millions or billions I still would have to lose weight. Look at Oprah.

On our diet scheme, whoever loses the most percentage of body weight (not just pounds) after 12 weeks wins. We also joined Village Fitness in Castle Pines, a very nice fitness club. I've been once and have only just gotten over the bruising from the spinning class which is not for the weak.

And, I've been sitting alot lately making movies, designing websites, designing as well as maintaining more websites, and even more websites, and full time paralegal work. All sedentary. On top of that, we've been doing lots of work with restaurants with really killer cuisine.

It's hard to pass up the whole piece of strawberry cake at Nono's Cafe in Littleton, of the Cream of Jalapeno Soup at Rockyard in Castle Rock (I've been ordering it with a side of chips and acting like its a dip), or the Crunch Rolls at my new fav: Junz in Parker. And, the list goes on. It's not that I'm going to STOP eating, but I have to really cut back quantity. So, I'll check back with you and let you know how this goes.

Please root for me: I really want to win!
