I sent mine for April, May and June. I hope to lose better in May. I don't know what my body's problem has been lately. Guess I'm going to have to move around more. haha I'm still enjoying just looking at the fabric I won in March.

Count me in for May - will be better. I'm back on my track and should continue that way.

Terrific Tuesday - I'd liks us all to adhere to the 7 Ps to help us with weight loss -- Proper Pre-Planning Prevents Pretty Poor Performance. Pre-plan meals and any eating 'binges' and performance (results) will show up in weight loss. Takes a bit of work there, but well worth the effort. I know Cindy talks about what she buys at the store and planning for meals, I do as well, but hubby and I eat out 2-3 times per week and it's hard to 'pre-plan' with meals out. I'm going to give it a try - how 'bout you?

I'm in again. Gotta keep going down.

I'm in again. April was the first time I've lost weight in many years. My weight has been stable but I haven't been happy about it. I feel like I can make progress this time. And I did more than just touch my fabric last night. I cut the fabric for 10 placemates that will be used as table runners for DD wedding reception in June. And I have enough fabric left to make me a set.

I am in again for May, and have already sent my fabric. Tomorrow I weigh, I think I have lost quite a bit despite those dozen donuts at the beginning of the month. I'll post tomorrow.

I am in for May.

Im in again for May. Haven't been around for a while. Fell up my basement stairs and dislocated my knee cap. Life is really just crappy. I was carrying my sewing machine and tote bags when i fell and i haven't even taken the cover off to see if i damaged it. DD put it back on the sewing table and there its been. Life is crappy!
