I'm in. Even if I reach the goal of fitting in my two smallest pair of pants, I need y'all to keep me on track. Our bodies want to gain weight to get us through the coming winter. Hey, body, it's 2011. Most of us have some sort of central heat and we don't need that layer anymore. Which reminds me, I need to get some wood in case the power goes out.
Beachbound, pumpkin muffins make a great breakfast. You can make them lower fat and lower sugar - I find adding a little vanilla to a recipe that doesn't have it allows me to cut down on the sugar. I can't believe most pumpkin muffin recipes. They could pass for cake.
I AM losing weight and getting healthier.

Fitting into clothes I haven't worn in awhile is the greatest motivation of all. Glad to see you will be here, I enjoy reading your comments. I have a long way to go, so I will be here through 2012 I am sure.

it is fun to 'go shopping' in your closet! new things to wear, and no cc bill or out of pocket expense! a 'husband approved' activity!

I've got no husband and my expendable cash all has to go to Christmas, so new clothing is not an option but there's truly nothing I need. I have way too many clothes and plenty of fabric to make more if I so desire. I also have an ex-husband who doesn't think he's an ex, but that's another story. He just called again.
Anyone headed for a 16 need a bright limey olive pant set? Pants, jacket with 3/4 sleeves and a plaid shell. It's yours for the shipping. Shiny shangtung type fabic so it's a little dressy. Sag Harbor runs large, IMO.

I am in again. I need all the help I can get. I need to stop goofing around and start losing again before I end up gaining what I lost back. :evil:

I forgot to show you my finish from yesterday. It looks better on my GD than on my mirror - she is my only grandchild with my little waistline(past for me). It matches her orange kitchen perfectly.
K's apron medallions are more orange and my wallpaper is more lilac.

I am in too! (For support only for the newbies that do not know me...I have had weight loss surgery so it would not be fair to the others)
I really really want to be in the 360s SOON. I hope that by increasing my produce and protein in my diet that that will do the trick this month. The inches are melting away but sometimes the poundage stays the same. :(
Anyway...you guys are awesome!
