Drink. More. Water! see you at the goal posts!
I make my own choices. They will be good choices - the ones that move me closer to my goal. |

I'm in for October. I definitely need the motivation. I will be visiting my mom for 3 weeks, (10/22-11/12). I have warned her about baking all kinds of goodies. We are going on a quilting retreat for about 4 days. It will be in the mountains in NH. So, i won't have a whole lot of control over what is being served, but i will have control over what goes in my mouth... BTW, I am new to this group.

I started dieting in early September. I am in. I will try to get the myfitnesspal on my comment string. Yea it worked. Now to bookmark this string.

Leann,
Thanks for making our list while FourPaws (Cindy) is away. It always helps to know who is participating. |
Cindy you have my thoughts and prayers. I had lung cancer (stage 1) 15 yrs ago and had my upper lobo removed. You have my thoughts and you will come thru this just fine. Will be thinking about you. Please write to let us know how you are doing when you are up and able.
Prayers to you Connie in Ohio |
I'm cutting a FQ today for our winner, lol; I even thought about cutting one for next month's too just to remember to do it. I ended up with a 3 1/2 lb loss...not great but we had a couple of crazy weeks with the bathroom reno so I am not going to beat myself up. Next month I will make the 5 pound challenge!
Quick thought for today~ No matter where you are in your journey, there is always someone who wishes that they were already where you are now. Unless of course you are that chick from Dr Oz! ;-) |
ATTENTION ALL PARTICIPANTS:
I WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE THE "RULES" BUT THIS IS A GROUP DECISION... I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT THAT "TO WIN THE FQ YOU MUST LOG INTO THE THREAD AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK AND PARTICIPATE IN THE DISCUSSION". WHAT IS YOUR OPINION? I would like your discussion on this issue, either in PM or on the thread. MJ |

Count me in. I like the idea of having to sign in each week and participate.
