The Biggest Loser!

Last night Nica asked me to check on her journal which she will submit the following day.

It has the usual name, age, address, birthday

and here's the part that made me laugh : )
          
              "My favorite food is fried chicken and anything on the table!"

                                                       and that is why.... he he he


This is not to embarass my only daughter but to encourage her to win in our family's version of
"The Biggest Loser". Last June, I persuaded my husband and my kids in our version of the show  and  whoever wins gets a gadget of their choice from mommy.  Rico wanted a Macbook Pro, Nica an iphone5 (w/c will be released later this year) and RJ's still thinking...while their dad wanted a Rolex watch. Awarding will be on December 23, 2011 so I still have time to save  : )

 This is to encourage them to start feeling healthy and conscious with ones look. Since I started running I realized the value of a healthy lifestyle. And the best way to begin is by having a healthy body.
Its really hard to get away with the KFC, Jollibee's, McDo, Pizza & soda, but I'm trying my best to
give them alternative foods like fruits, yogurt, nuts and wheat bread. Gone are the days of iced tea during meals. What I have now are unlimited coconut juice at the ref.   Our weekends are now spent on "fun run" instead of shopping at the mall.

So far, Ricky already shed 9 lbs and is aiming to lose more.  Rico lost few pounds already and he is very strict on what he eats now. Sometimes I have to remind him to eat more as he is a growing kid.
 With my youngest son RJ , i just let him be.

One time I brought home a box of Toblerone given by one of my patients. Here's our conversation:

        RJ: Mommy, give me 1 pc of toblerone

        Mommy: RJ, remember our contest...the biggest loser?

        RJ: Mom, its only July! I still have lots of time . C'mon the choclates... : )

See, how convincing my youngest son.
I think he can get another award..."the biggest user"  : )
He's always using his charm to get mommy's attention.

The Biggest Loser?

the daddy?
contenders...Rico...
..nica or RJ ?
