One more suggestion: WebMD has some great newletters they send out with diet and fitness info. They debunk a lot of myths... You can sign up for their free newsletters. It's great info and very encouraging.

My new years res. for this year is to stop taking care of everyone else and start taking care of my self for a change. I have done it for so long I am not sure where to begin lol! My weight has just gone up over the years I have never stayed committed long enough to actually loose any weight....but I have never had any support or even told anyone I was trying to loose weight either. So how easy does that make it to not follow through? lol! I weighed this morning but I do have 2 delayed holiday dinners the first week of Jan. to do. Hopefully by exercising I can still make some progress. :)I really like Lauriejo's plan I want less of alot of things in my life. Less stress, less clutter,less chaos,less spending, and especially less weight! I have over 100 pounds to loose also. I have 1 1/2 years till I am 50. My goal is to be thinner and healthier by the time I turn 50. There...... actually telling someone wasn't THAT embarrasing. :-D

Okay... I think I'm in. Weighed 'in' this am.
Hitting the gym on monday. I'm supposed to do that 3 x week, but haven't done so yet... <sigh> The encouragement from here will help.
I have about 70lbs to loose over all. Where? Where did it come from??? yikes... I just read the interesting comment about how many calories there were in just 4oz of lean beef. wow.
Thanks ladies (and guys if there are any in the challenge...).
kata in south florida... newbie quilter.

Might be interesting sometime if rather than "pounds" lost to do a contest with "percentage of weight" lost like the Biggest Loser. Makes it more fair for the person who has a smaller amount of weight to lose....just a thought.
