Lose 10 pounds by Christmas challenge

Last week I signed up for a "Lose 10 pounds by Christmas challenge" - then I ate a brownie...GO ME!

I wasn't super motivated, but did actually get on the treadmill once for a total distance of 1 mile and 100 calories.  So, I was super surprised to weigh in yesterday morning at a measly .8 pounds down.  I mean, come on, shouldn't that treadmill workout cancel out the brownie(s) and excess sugar cookies consumed at Grammy's on Saturday?

Then, yesterday afternoon it began.  The first Christmas gifts delivered to work.  It's a huge tin of popcorn...plain, cheese and caramel.  No telling what's next.

I did get on the treadmill again last night (1 mile, 130 calories) and the hubby is out of town all week (no cooking), so maybe I'll do a little better this week.  If not, I'll try to pass off my orange stained fingers as a new fashion trend.
