Minus 4.5lbs for me this week. That'll do.

Is it too late for me to join the Christmas 30? I so don't want another holiday season where I'm struggling into my clothing and eating enough at holiday parties that I have constant low-grade stomach distress...my overall goal is basically 30lbs, but getting there a month early would be the best Christmas present I could get!

Starting Weight (21 Sept 2010): 150.5
Current Weight (25 Sept 2010): 152.5
Goal Weight (1 Feb 2011): 123
Christmas Goal!: 123

Hi everyone you are all doing great. My weight was 167.5 last week-lost 2.5lbs on Tuesday.

Please help and apologies

Tracy - welcome to the group!

Go to the top of this page.. (to the darker blue ribbon) and click on 'User CP'.

Then look on the left for something like edit signature. Type in what you want and save it. When it needs to change, just go back and edit it. It sounds hard but it isnt.

To the tune of "White Christmas", add a line if you've got one:

I'm dreaming of a slim Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know...

Where the skinny jeans shimmer
and small tops glimmer
And critics jaws drop to the floor!

I'm dreaming of a slim Christmas
With every cal'rie that I count.

May your ....

OMG did I have cravings last night! I don't know if I was just bored, or if I didn't eat enough calories yesterday, or if 8 days without junk just caught up to me! I did not cave though! I drank a cup of green tea instead. I had to remind myself of what my ultimate goal is and eating the junk is not going to get me there. Also, I am so horrible if I cave even a little because it always leads to feelings of failure which then lead to an all out binge, which then becomes self loathing and depression. I am not one of these people who can have a cheat here and there and then pick right back up. I wish I was! I have been avoiding going out with friends and visiting family because I know the temptations are just too great!

First of all, way to go everyone on your week 1 weight losses! Keep up the good work!

A little get to know you question for you to ponder over and respond to....

What motivates you to reach your goals?

Right now I have two major motivators. 1.) My husband is currently overseas. He is scheduled to come home the end of January and I want nothing more than to surprise him with a slimmer version of myself! 2.) We have been struggling to have a baby for the past three years. We underwent several months of fertility treatments with no success. After many tests and analysis they can't find any reason for our struggle. It was so emotionally and financially draining to us that we stopped trying all together. We are ready to try again when my husband gets home, so I want to be in the best health possible before starting IVF in the hopes that it will improve our chances of it being successful. Research shows that women who have a normal range BMI respond better to treatments. I hope and pray that is the case for us!
