OK, I'm fired up. After signing up I quickly weighed myself (ugh), and went out to feed the birds and pick up sticks. Winter was harder on my trees than I realized. The sun was shining so brightly I could hardly see the feeders. How's that for a good sign! I was huffing, puffing, and wheezing like an old steam engine. Boy, am I out of shape. Just had a salad with all the good-for-you stuff. This is the most motivated I think I have ever been to loose weight. Apparently I'll do anything for the possibliity of free fat quarters. Love ya all. Good Luck
