Natalie Portman's Shaved Head

I have been listening to Pandora a lot lately and I came across this new band. It was the name that popped out to me and I had to check it out. I liked their music and figured I would share :)

As some of you know my taste in music can vary quite a bit. The song is called "Me + Yr Daughter." Enjoy...

Who Knew?

I learned something new last night about losing weight... I have to eat more food in order to make sure I lose weight in a safe manner. Here I thought that all I had to do was eat less, but healthy food and I would lose weight.

After staying around 200o calories a day for the past week or so I was informed that my body would go into starvation mode, and subsequently start consuming my muscles in search of protien. Ok so maybe that is the worst thing that would happen...

So after looking things up and reading a little, I found out I should be eating about a 1000 more calories a day than I have been. So basically today I learned I have to eat more in order to lose weight. So, like I said... Who Knew :)

The Bet

So I wasnt going to mention this but my coworker and I made a bet last week and today he sent an email to the whole company telling everyone what it was.  I figured I couldn't have my company know about the bet and not my friends.  So here it is:

We are both hefty individuals and so the bet was for each of us to lose 40 lbs in 6 months.  The wager: $500.  As an added rule if both of us make it to 40 lbs and keep going then the person who loses the most weight wins.  

So that is it and I figured you all should know.  I have been talking about losing weight and getting in shape for a while now and I think this is just the thing to jump start the process :)

So good luck to me and for those of you getting married...  I will be a lot sexier for your weddings :) haha
