I am so busy this week going to work, running errands, and going to girls nights that there just isn't time for working out! My only options are:
1. Skip work (my preferred choice)
2. Skip sewing night (no way)
3. Forget working out (so very, very tempting)
4. .....well, I don't even want to mention it. It's too awful.
Ok, fine.
I'll tell you.
But only because you made me.
4. I could work out before work. As in, get up early and go running.
Ugh.
Please tell me you have another suggestion?
Four Girls, Three Months, One Winner!
Welcome
Our Blog is called Reasons to Lose because all of us participating have different reasons for losing weight! It could be to get healthier, or feel better about yourself, maybe it is to have more stamina and energy or the good old fashioned 'I don't like my body and want to look better'. Whatever our reasons are, we have decided to come together and lose the weight! We are blogging about it to keep motivation up (no one wants to report they just ate their way through a second box of chocolates and gained 10 pounds this week...) and also maybe we will inspire our readers to make their lives better too!
New This Season
We are currently taking a break! You may see us update you all on our personal progress for the next few months but as far as the competition goes, we are on a hiatus.

About Amber
I was inspired by two of my sister-in-laws to start this blog. I have always struggled with insecurity and when I work out regularly (regardless of if I lose weight) I feel better(probably all those endorphins!) I want to eat better and get healthier too, and this blog will help me stay on top of my goals!

About Chantel
I tend to get sick often during the winter (and sometimes fall) seasons. And when I do get sick, I stay sick for a while. I'm hoping that doing a regular workout routine will help my immune system, so I can kick illness in the butt! I also have been wanting to work out regularly to get more toned, increase my confidence and have more energy. I know that with a good support system I'll be able to keep it up!

About Annie
With everything I am responsible for at home, my ridiculous work schedule and my health problems, it makes it hard to keep working out on the front burner. But when I heard about this blog, I thought 'why not!'. I'm excited to get started and hopefully I won't die of exhaustion when this is all over!
Heléna, age 26
About Helena
I can't fit into my clothes! After getting married and being forced to eat my own cooking, I started gaining weight. The desk job didn't really help. I gained 30 lbs in the past year, and I can really feel it when I try to get dressed in the morning. I am really good at starting diet and exercise programs; but really bad at finishing them. And that's all about to change...

Think of it though! You would feel awesome having it all done! Or...how about during a break at work? Go for a walk.
i love working out at 5.30am! there arent many people who do, so you develope a close knit buch of idiots-er...friends...who care when you miss a day.
ps-cant you talk kurt into working out for you?
oooo hard choice, hard choice. I don't know what type of building/office you work in but if you work in one where there are stairs, I would do those a couple of times during the day. I'll do 7 flights 4-5 times a day. No, it's not much but when I can't get a workout to fit, it cuts the bill.
Do it in spurts of ten instead of 30-60 mins. Do that three times a day and you've got your min.
I work out at night. A lot of people can't, but I prefer it. 8:00-9:00pm for me.
What if you switch girls night and working out to alternate? Or work out for your girls night?
OR work out while sewing.
I think that one is your best bet.
HAHA! Chantel! I can see Helena doing squats while sewing a purse or something. That'd be awesome! :)
Helena, gf, I wish I could tell you what to do, but I can't. I'm REALLY bad at giving workout advice because I HATE TO DO IT. :) Sorry. Good luck, though, in making a good choice! :)
