The rules are...................On Sept 1st weigh yourself. Write it down. For the month of Sept you will come to this thread for helps, tips, recipies, encouragment and {{{{{HUGS}}}}}}} On Sept 30 weigh yourself again and PM me with you loss. This is the honor system and you DO NOT pm me every week with your loss or gain I just want the amount you lost at the end. It is your choice if you want to post your weight. The person who lost the most amount of weight is the winner and the losers have to send that person a FQ. A person can not win 2 months in a row. When the winner is posted you will contact them for their contact info.

In the past people sign up never sending the winner the well deserved FQ. This has happened every month since we started this. They received about 1/2 the amount of FQ as people who signed up. I am not a policeman and this is not my job to keep on top of people to send the winner their prize so if you THINK you will not be able to send the winner their FQ please do not sign up. You can still join the fun by following along and posting on the thread. Thanks.


This months theme........................calico. Pretty little prints from days gone by. More like feedsack knock offs. Prints you would see in a 1930's 9 patch quilt, nothing bright and no large prints. And as always if you can not afford to buy a FQ in calico you can send what you have.


Lets eat right, exercise, get healthy and most important have FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sign up closes Sept 1!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Trupeach, Please count me in again! I didn't lose much, but I sure enjoy the thread.
Thanks and have a wonderful month!

I'M IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Didn't lose anything last month but have kept off the 14lb I lost when I started so that is a plus. Cool weather SHOULD be here soon so maybe that will help. I HATE the heat>

Ok I'm joining in this time. I have already lost 20lbs by eating better and exercising 5 days a week maybe this will give me more motivation.

I'm in for Sept! My fat quarter is going out as soon as I hear who the winner is. I am so glad I found this thread, a fat quarter is a good price to pay for the loss of 6.5 lbs! And it is because of the support and encouragement here that I was able to lose that much. I am happy and proud. That's a real good feel-good combination!

And congratulations to all of us for sticking to it! Even if you didn't lose, you didn't gain so we are all winners!
