One of my babysitters is 13 years old and she just finished her first week of phase one and she lost FIVE pounds!


Her sister (13.5) is doing it with her (modified a bit) and she lost 3 lbs.


They are so excited!!!!

I think this is great -- learning to eat healthy young (wish I would have known).

Honestly, I can't take too much credit - they've really done their homework and are making great choices - they even had a planned cheat and then increased exercise - they've done so well. They are such neat teenagers!!


They spend a chunk of time over here and M (who loves to cook) and I talk about recipes and sneaky ways to get in the veggies! We both love that

Thanks! I just saw that your challenge might end at your goal weight! That's so great too!!!!


D is really really really ready to move on to Phase 2 and she prob should seeing as she only had at most maybe 10-12 lb to safely lose - she's doing it mostly to support her sister M who has about 30-40 to lose and who was gianing in the midsection which is very unhealthy (as we all already know! lol).


M is really hanging in there tough - they get tickled when I share my transgressions - like eating the cheddar bay bisquits at dinner last night. It makes it easier when you share the tough/cheat parts too, but I don't really know why!! lol


Of course, the most treasured piece of knowledge they seem to have ever gotten (or so they say) was the other day when I told them when I was 14 (which they are 13 and 13.5) I had a crush - a BIG crush on their older brother who was 17 at the time. (I left out that I actually kissed him when I was 15 hahaha!)
