    Did pretty good here. It will be easier when I am home from Virginia. Started at 228lbs at 12:01 Jan 1, 2011.
    Could be worse, LOL, I used to be 300 lbs. and I'm only 5'2".
    Good Luck to everyone!!

    Hope it isn't to late to join. I have 70 pounds to take off and have had a real hard time with will power.

    I'm not going to join the competition as I'm not trying to lose weight, but I would like to follow the thread to encourage and root others on, and I'd like to send a fat quarter to the winner.
    I am also not joining, but will follow the thread and cheer everyone on. Get ready, get set, go!!!

    WOW, 24 pages in it is only the SECOND day. I don't think I'll have time to go back and read all of that. My first day of the year was spend sick in bed. All I ate was a small bowl of soup for fear I would throw up. I am all better today - thank goodness.

    I got on the scale and it was half again worse than I thought so I'm copying out my old mantra and posting it above my computer.

    "A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step"

    I was three quarters of the way there before and the engine stalled but I am planning to keep on trying.

    It might be a good idea for anyone who wants to post their pic and then when they lose 10 lbs post another one this way we could see the difference with the wieght loss. Just a thought.
    I was going too but I can't get the darn picture to rotate. Your tata's keep pulling the pic sideways.
    They are kind of like balloons, they pull me up and I can float away. I actually have a rope tied around my ankles and that tied to the couch or I would be floating up on the living room ceiling.
