Have updated the OTK Fantasy Football League… you can click the banner to the right, or click HERE. The first and second place teams played this week, and Richard Windsor was involved in the closest game in league history. Pretty exciting week!

Solid week for both of us, though there were some challenges. We spent all day Saturday and part of Sunday in Orlando with Jean and Rose. It was great seeing them both and things went real well. Being away from home is always a diet challenge though. We had two restaurant meals, but selected semi-healthy choices. Certainly avoided ordering any extras though, so overall those meals were pretty reasonable.

Jean also brought several low-cal snacks, which was a big help. She doesn’t diet to lose weight, but her diabetes forces her to eat healthy. She also needs to avoid caffeine and artificial sweeteners… which means finding some unique food and snack options. Jean does a good job though, and we really enjoyed checking some new things out.

The main thing we did that made a difference though, was keeping our daily food journal updated. We’ve let that go in the past when we were on a trip… and that hasn’t worked. That Suzy earned a discipline spanking last week for not journaling was surely a good motivator. Exceptions just aren’t being allowed… because if we do that… with all of our trips and the holidays coming up… progress just wont happen.

We also did a good job during the rest of the week at home, so overall we’re both real happy with our efforts. Not that the scale is impressed. We both can recall a youth in which a diet meant weight fell off FAST, and goal was reached in a month or two. Now, we work and work and work… and get rewarded in ounces.

The alternative is to not try though, and probably gain. So we try not to worry about the speed of the scale. Probably best to do it slowly anyway. Not only will it last, but we’re no miserable on the way.

Quiet week coming up. No plans and we should be home all week. The week after though… we have a small weekend spanking party in Ocala… and then Halloween is the following week. So, we want to make the most of this ‘easy’ week before things get busy. Wish us luck!

Diet Update

Carye: Carye worked really-really hard the previous two weeks to make her monthly weight loss goal… and the work paid off. She just made her goal, which was certainly happy news. This last week though, she relaxed quite a bit and drifted back to a few bad habits. The result was a gain… and now she’s all of a sudden in a hole when it comes to reaching this months goal.

That not only puts Carye on a pace to earn a discipline spanking, but… it also would mean that a picture of her spanked bare bottom would then be shared. So, plenty of incentive. Will take a focused effort though.

Carye did do it last month, so we know she can still make her goal. Interesting approach using a monthly goal… and certainly the added embarrassment of the photo is an effective motivator. Good luck, Carye!

Jean: As we mentioned in our part of the Diet Update, we did meet with Jean… and Rose… and it did go real well. We had a fun time and took care of earning some clean slates. Jean actually wasn’t in much trouble. A little bit of an issue with cussing, and then an even a smaller one with staying focused on her health rules. Not bad at all. She has been doing real well.

We’re actually going to be seeing Jean again in just two weeks at a small spanking party in Ocala. A few of our friends are going to be there and it should be a fun gathering. We’re hoping too that Jean will have kept herself out of trouble too… both major and minor.

Courtney: Courtney had a fun day taking her daughter to an out of town for a weekend event. She enjoyed the chance at some mother/daughter time and tells us it was an amazing trip. There wasn’t much sleep though and eating out for every meal was the only choice. Not easy on a diet.

Courtney did okay though. She was allowed to skip her journal on Saturday, but otherwise she stayed on task there. She also got all of her water in and mostly made good food choices. She’s not doing weekly weigh-ins now, and instead strictly goes by how she did with her rules.

The only rule Courtney actually came up short on was exercise… and that will earn her a spanking. That’s likely to happen tomorrow. Courtney tells us she’s going to work hard this coming week so she can keep herself out of trouble. We know she can do it and wish her lots of luck.

N~ (from Living Domestic Discipline): We didn’t hear from N~ this week… but we’ll be sure to catch you up next week.

Iggy (from Perceptions From the Edge): Iggy took a short break from the Weight Watchers grind after the SSC party. She was worried that the news would be pretty bad when weighed after the break. But, she was up just a single pound. That’s with Thanksgiving (in Canada) figured in. We think that’s pretty darn good! lol, heck… we’ve gained that much in a week in which we followed our diet closely.

Iggy is now back to back to the daily WW thing and she’s feeling pretty good about things. Getting her water in will be a challenge, but she’s going to work hard to get it done because it does help.

We’re excited to see how Iggy does. She really has made a lot of progress… and we know she’s going to continue finding success.
