If I make my 2 fat blocks and Joyce takes a pic for me could I e-mail it to someone so that you can post it for me on this thread and on the fat quilt thread?

You are all doing good it sounds like. I had a really good month in Oct. as I was in a transition of sorts. We were coming South for the Winter and cooking and eating were not a priority. Were quite active and was losing good so once we got here I got really serious and lost 14#. I am still motivated and still walking every day but in the last 7 days I only lost 1#. I want to lose at least 7-8# this month if I can. I,too, need to lose about 45# to feel better health wise and have a better self-image!!! Good luck to you all.

I highly recomemend and support water fasting when suicide is the alternative.

Since starting this WOE (I JUST started the alternate fast day (that is the name given to the restricted calorie days, also known as "famine" days)) on August 5th, I have tons of energy. I do walk the dog daily with my daughter. I use 5 lb weights to work on toning my arms. I can handle squats using a 30 lb barbell about once a week. I will build up over time. Also I am going to try the 30 Day Shred. It might still be a bit too much but I will try.

Who was the October winner and what type of fabric do I need to send her? I was camping in Cades Cove in the Smoky Mountains and no electricity so no computer to send in my weight loss. Didn't want to stand on the scale anyway!!

I am glad everyone is doing well. I had a good week, I lost 3 pounds :) The exercise really helps me and I finally started doing more of it.
This week I only have to bring to kids to four doctors appointments, I just hate these appointments mostly because they are so far away and the kids have to miss school for all of them. One of the visits is for an MRI for my daughter. MRI's always scare me. I find it very hard to believe my teenager is wetting herself on purpose as they want me to believe.
Anyway I am ready to face the week. I plan to exercise (dance around, really) every day this week.
