Our story…
Our friendship is one that grew out of necessity. Thirteen years ago we were introduced through Kacie’s mother, who at the time, was Nicole’s co-worker. We started trading babysitting when we were both struggling.
Over time, we became close friends. We have been roommates, we have had the same job, we have had significant others that were best friends, and we have become godparents to each others’ children. We have been friends through relationships, break-ups, jobs, school, parenting, joy and sadness. We have had the type of friendship that everyone should have.
We have done so much together…which has included gaining weight.
We consistently manage to stay within a five pound range of each other and, at times, are exactly the same weight (as we just found out that we currently are). We are each other’s cheerleaders and, at the same time, our own worst enemies. We are always ready to help each other stay on track; however, when one seriously falls off the wagon, the other is not usually standing by to lend a hand back on, but is taking that dive right behind. Thelma and Louise to the end! We always make plans to start again, though, and never blame each other.
We have shared our dieting struggles throughout the years. We have talked about ideas and tips, had weight loss contests, and even participated in 5 and 10Ks together. When each of our doctors advised us to try out a low carb diet, we knew it was time to get serious. We talked about starting a blog as a way to be accountable, and it was only natural that we would do it together.
