Weigh in day plus my Millionaire episode

Howdy, friends! TGIF, yeah?

So, today's my weigh in day, and well...it twas not pretty.

216.8, up 1.2 pounds this week. Another gain. Blech.

Today is day 1 of the Bust the Sugar Cravings Challenge! From now until Thanksgiving, I am shunning chocolate, sweets and artificial sweeteners. Hallie from For Real This Time! suggested this little challenge and is also participating, as well as Ellen from Weighting Around! Feel free to check in on us to make sure we're keeping those sugar demons away.

So far this morning I'm drinking my coffee sans Splenda (blech), and had eggs with some prunes. Well, not together in the same dish...that would be weird.

So, for those of you who asked, here is my Millionaire episode! Sorry it's in bits - I couldn't figure out how to get it all on one stream.

Enjoy, and have a great weekend! I'll be posting updates on the Sugar Cravings challenge this weekend to keep myself accountable.

Hanlie said...

I watched the whole thing and girl, you are gorgeous! Confident, well-spoken and beautiful! You have PRESENCE! Congratulations on your $15000 - it was well-deserved!

Thanks, Joel Stein... dumbass! And you could have used a smarter audience, too. Good job, nonetheless. I probably would have flubbed the "darts" question...

Hallie said...

Well, check you out all keeping your wits about you! I flake out when the pressure's on and people are watching.

I guess I'm lucky I never got into putting sugar in my coffee. I do like my coffee with milk, which makes me a pariah in my family, but I started off having to do that because hot coffee burnt my tongue - I don't know how the rest of them manage it. I do like coffee ice cream, and caffe mochas, but when it comes to coffee, I can't imagine wanting it with sugar! Maybe you can learn to appreciate black coffee as well as others do!

You did amazing on the show! $15,000, WOW! What are you going to do with it? By the way, you look great too!

OMW Jenn, that was so cool! I watched the whole show, thanks so much for putting it up! I was sitting here grinning practically the whole time! I know you bought some good makeup for the show or the wedding, did you do your own? You did a great job! Ya look super! I, like your other bloggie fans am amazed at how well u did. Wondering where ya got all that poise!? It seems so nervewracking. And that dramatic music is playing in your ear too, right?

I love that your dh got to be a part of it too, and better yet that he scored. !

I think you and Meredith connected. =)

So cool to have done this after launching your fitness journey. You probably felt so much more confident all around, but particularly walking, & when in the hotseat.

Woo hoo!!! Chrissy

I’m finally almost done catching up on my blog reading!!! I have really missed checking in on your blog! Congratulations on those couple of excellent weigh-ins you had (don’t sweat the others at this point; you are working on straightening things out now with the sugar cravings and all) and on your new size 16 waistline! Woo hoo! And I totally get the crying over smaller clothes thing (remember my description of my size 20 jeans). I love your pumpkin patch and Halloween photos, by the way; your little girls are so cute. Happy 6 month blogiversary too! That’s so cool that you have been at this journey for that long and had all the great success that you already have. Congrats, also, on your Millionaire winnings! That was one of the only posts I read over these past couple of weeks of busyness, because I really wanted to know how you had done (I didn’t catch the show though, so I’m super happy you posted the videos today). FYO, you looked gorgeous on the show! I’m so glad to be back reading you blog!!!

Ha! FY'I', not 'O'. Sorry!

Eszter said...

Come on, you gained a little but you were on TV!!! (: Btw, I think you look great and good luck with the challenge.

Melissa said...

You look great on TV!! Your gorgeous girl! Oh and I'm trying to shun the sugar too, didn't realize there was a challenge going on. Thanks for sharing!

Char said...

How fun!!! Thanks for taking the time to post the snippets....so we could be a part of your TV debut :-) And, winning $15,000 to boot!!!

It's great to actually 'see' someone you've been following on their blog....

Congratulations!!!

Girl! You looked SO great, you did SO great, too! Your husband is so cute and he's awesome for knowing that answer -w oohoo! So glad you posted it because my DH recorded the wrong channel the day I told him to record your episode - it was super old ones with Regis on them!
So I've been recording new ones and FF-ing through them hoping for a rerun of you! lol
