I married the biggest Loser!

At a time of year when a lot of people are gaining weight, Taber has been losing it. A couple months ago he joined the biggest loser challenge at work in hopes to maybe lose 10 lbs or so. Since I've been working on losing my baby weight I gave him a few tips to follow that first week like drinking more water, cutting out soda, watching his portions, etc... He just followed those simple things and threw in a little exercise and in the first week he had lost 3 lbs.

Motivated by the loss he really dug in and started tracking what he ate and working out more consistently and in 8 weeks he lost 24 pounds and won the $300 prize money from work. Three weeks later, even without the competition at work, he continues to eat healthy and exercise and is maintaining his weight loss. I'm very proud of him and motivated by his discipline and healthy life changes. Here are some before and after pics.

way to go Taber! Although like your previous poster said, No fair! James will lose weight any time I go out of town and all he eats is fast food while I'm gone!
