About Mrs. Grasshopper

30 by 30!

May 22nd, 2006 @ 4:38 pm by Mrs. Grasshopper

Mr. Grasshopper quit smoking nearly three years ago, which still impresses me daily, but in doing so he put on some additional lbs, which did not make him very happy even though I still thought he looked hot.

The day we got engaged he declared that he would lose 30 pounds by the wedding, which also happens to be two weeks before his 30th birthday, so he coined this strategy “30 by 30.” I am happy to report that he has already reached his goal in just 5 short months! He has been exercising four days a week and cutting back on bad carbs and opting for healthy snacks, and is now on to a “40 by 30- plan, which doesn’t have the same ring, but is of course, more awesomer than “30 by 30.”

I on the other hand am still only visiting the gym once every other week. This week I decided four trips a week is required until the wedding day blast off. I’ll be happy if I show up twice a week. :)

Funny you should write this, I am actually pretty frustrated because my fiancee actually put on 30 pounds since the engagement in October! I know he is under stress at work but jeez… I lost a bunch of weight for the wedding. I told him this morning that it is really important that he watches his carbs from now until July 1 !

that is so awesome. i’ve put on 10 pounds since the wedding… maybe my motto should be 10 by 28? hmmm not as catchy.
