I did it! (and a giveaway)

I did it!  Today, I officially hit my 20 pound weight loss.  It all started last year (January 24, 2012) and one year and 3 weeks later, I finally met my first BIG goal.  20 pounds!  I promised a giveaway so here we go.  One of my favorite things!

It is a BicBand (my favorite headband EVER...doesn't slip) and the only chevron one offered on the site. It is a little "Christmas-y" but not really.  The pink and lime green give it a fun, cute feel.  All you have to do is comment and I will use the Random Number Generator to choose a number on WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 20th! 

What is your favorite workout? Do you run?  Crossfit?  Yoga?  Videos at home?

My new goal is to lose another 10 by my sister's wedding in June.  Let's do this!

Girl, that is so amazing! And the fact that you did it the healthy way over the course of the year means you have SUCH a greater change of KEEPING it off and maintaining those healthy habits - congrats!

Way to go Lauren! What a great accomplishment! My favorite work-out is yoga, jazzercise and walking my dog.
Congrats!

Laura  – (February 15, 2013 at 12:47 PM)  

Congrats! Not necessarily my favorite workout, but the one I do the most is running because I can just put my daughter in the stroller and go.

Congrats and way to stick with it! I love yoga or a good cradi class but since becoming a SAHM I let go of my gm membership need to get back on the wagon some how.

Way to go girlie!! Congrats on meeting your goal! I enjoy a good Zumba class when I get the time, otherwise I use the Nike Training app and do a few workouts on there at home.

Ali  – (February 15, 2013 at 1:48 PM)  

Congratulations! I'm so proud of you! You know I love bikram and regular yoga, personal training bootcamp, and the occasional jog. I really enjoyed trying barre method and title boxing. xoxo

Cute! I'm looking for something to hold my hair back during labor and delivery. I have been enjoying TRX and yoga lately!

Stephanie  – (February 15, 2013 at 6:16 PM)  

Congratulations!!! I know you read my blog so you already know my bar method obsession! I would really like to get back to some regular running but can't quite find my motivation.

Jessica  – (February 15, 2013 at 6:36 PM)  

That is VERY AWESOME Lauren! I enjoy walking and these new kickboxing classes that I have been taking.

jcassidy  – (February 15, 2013 at 6:54 PM)  

CONGRATS!! I am trying to kick start my own weight loss journey. I love yoga, and walking. Hate running and anything the least bit strenuous, which is something I am working on!

Amy –   – (February 15, 2013 at 7:12 PM)  

Good for you! That's great. I have recently joined a gym and have been trying to get myself into a routine. Baby steps, right? ;)

Ali  – (February 15, 2013 at 8:30 PM)  

Yay, Lauren! So proud of you!

Favorite workout is probably a good run on a sunny afternoon. It's the perfect mommy break!

Emily  – (February 15, 2013 at 10:03 PM)  

20 lbs that's awesome! I really love a good long walk with the dog on a nice day, but since it's been cold for so long I prefer short brisk walks and videos at home. Good luck with the next goal!

kellyf  – (February 16, 2013 at 7:26 AM)

Nice work! Im doing weight watchers and just met my 5% goal, its my first goal but I'm feeling really empowered! I haven't found my workout niche yet, but its been fun doing all different workouts and videos looking for it.
Keep up the good work!

Amy  – (February 16, 2013 at 9:01 AM)  

Awesome job, momma! I hope I can say that soon :) I've got about 35 I want to loose. I miss working out and slowly getting back to it. My prekids favorite thing was kickboxing and hope to get to a class once a week but for now, it's the old treadmill. oh, joy, lol!

Anonymous –   – (February 16, 2013 at 7:24 PM)  

Way to go! I love zumba and am picky about my instructors. I like the Pitbull tunes and hip-hop, not the merengue and Latin songs.

Christina  – (February 17, 2013 at 4:16 PM)  

Woo hoo! I've been following you on MFP. I'm almost to the 30 lb mark (I gained 60-70 during pregnancy, and we are approaching her 1 year birthday in a week!)

I'm kind of a fan of the elliptical (if you can't tell from MFP) and I just started the couch to 5k. :)

Natalie  – (February 17, 2013 at 9:04 PM)  

highly recommend the bob harper (from biggest loser) videos--they're tough stuff but a great all around workout! and congrats on hitting your goal!

Julia Goolia  – (February 17, 2013 at 9:38 PM)  

I love chevrons and headbands, so holla!!

I am a runner with a gym membership, so it's mostly treadmill for me plus some weights if I have the extra time. Otherwise I love my Jackie Warner workout video. She is amazing!

Tammy  – (February 18, 2013 at 3:14 PM)  

Awesome job!!! You should be so proud of yourself.

Unknown  – (February 19, 2013 at 2:12 PM)  

Congrats!! 20 lbs is very impressive!

Mary  – (February 19, 2013 at 8:32 PM)  

Congrats on the weight loss, Lauren! That's a HUGE achievement! My favorite workout is pilates, but I can't afford it anymore! Oh well, I will settle for outdoor running, I guess:)
