weight-loss journey

1, I have a new boyfriend. He's great.
2, we've challenged each other: whoever loses the most weight in 2 months wins.
3, don't know what the prize is gonna be.

anyways, I'm on the journey of, as I told one of my youth kids, not being at risk for having a heart attack by the time I'm 40. I'm not doing a specific diet plan. Just doing portion control, subbing fruit for Little Debbies, exercising, etc.

Start weight: 213 (hold your EEEKKKS, I did my own).
Goal weight: 190 (goal for now)
other goal: survive combat fitness (more on that later)
actually, i'd settle for under 200 for a weight at this point.
mind you, I'm a fairly big-boned girl. my hips are set wide, and i'm not sure if I'd ever see a jeans size under a 10 or a 12, just because of how my hips are set. But it's not about being in a smaller jeans size (although if my current jeans would fit a little better, i'd be content). It's about being kind to my body, being healthy, and moreover, respecting my body as the temple of God that it is.

this morning's breakfast: 1 serving oatmeal and an orange.
exercise this morning: 30 minutes on the Wii Fit.
afternoon plan: run/walk 2 miles.
