I'm in for December. Thanks for the reminder, Cindy!
Batiks! Batiks! I've got to win the Batiks!

Well November was a gain, but it's over so on to better results. I am going to start walking again starting today.

I would love to join you. Have been doing a kind of Paleo. Eliminating everything "white". This sounds like so much fun. Thank you.

I am in again and you have my skinny quarter.

I'm back in again. November was kinda crazy for me. I've started my cookie baking for Christmas. My men are happy and that makes things ok. I haven't baked in a while and am looking forward to some old family recipies again. I'm stilll down a bit and am watching my carbs. I love Christmas decorations and all that goes with it. Merry Merry everyone!!

So many are wanting this months pot of batiks, I don't want anyone think I could be dishonest in any way shape or form I want this pot myself. So I am going to post my weight that is was on the first and again at the end of the month. I don't expect anyone else to post their weight. I want this to be above reproach.

On Dec 1st my weight was 198.6.

Just want to be able to be held accountable when I win...........I will take a picture of the ones that I already have and post a picture of the winning pot.

And no one has said anything ...... just planning for the best but expecting the worse to happen.

The batiks would be a bonus, but what I really want is my weight to go down and my waistline to reappear. My December 1st weight?? 154 pounds.

I didn't get off to a great start. Eating was fair, but I had to cut my walk short. The warm day melted the top layer of ice/snow and the streets refroze into a skating rink. Lily (tall long legged dog) was slipping badly and Siberians tear ACLs too easily so we quit after 1/2 mile or so. Moira and I were fine - she's closer to the ground and I had on Yaktraxx.

Today is only the 2nd. We should have some more sign ups in the next few days. More batiks for the winner, LOL. I need to go choose one to send. While I could do more of the lime green I do have some linear quarters I can consider. I think there's a light blue and that's not my color. Hmm.

Welcome back, everyone and a welcome to littlebitofheaven.

I AM losing weight and becoming healthier!!!!!

My Dec 1st weight was 162. I wanted so badly to show a loss last month, but a small gain it was instead. Sob! Oh, well, on to bigger (ur, smaller) and better things - BATIKS!! Yeah. I'm going to give you a run for your money Cindy - and Gayle and Judy and all you other skinny ladies! I don't know what's happening with me, but I've been suffering from - allowing myself - whatever to sink into some depressions. They haven't lasted long, but I don't like feeling that way. Dislike myself, my hubby, my life - that sort. Something in the water? Gotta get beyond this...take care, eat healthy and drink lots (water, that is!)

Did the winner from November get announced?

I sat down last night - me and google - and made out my list of daily exercises, while I incorporated some monthly challenges. I can't wait!

I'm also doing something I normally don't do. I weighed myself on the first, and I'm going to (try to) not weigh again until the 31st. I like to weigh every morning. It has always helped me doing it that way. But for fun I'm going to (try to) wait.

And I'm finishing up a round robin block and starting on a quilt this week. Woot!

No the winner has not been announced yet, I will announce tonight after work. I am waiting to see if any one else sends me a pm with their loss.
