Oh, I would lose 30-50 lbs and gain it back plus some more........I know!! How can I be so unhealthy and I am a nurse. I hate the E word with a passion so guess I will have to start walking. I am sure hoping you all can help me do this. I know, I have to do it myself just need that push. Lynne

Missy does. I forgot how much though. I know she lost over 60 lbs but has a lot more to go I think she wighed aroucn 400. I can't remember.
I had 60 and lost 30 since I started this challenge. I want to lose it slow to keep it off.
If you hate to exercise you should try pilates IT WORKS.......... shapes and tones however you don't sweat.

Tru is right. I need to lose around 250-275 pounds. I have lost 63+ pounds now. Exercise is not easy at all for me but it is getting easier a tiny bit at a time. I am really glad that I took a picture of myself as a "before" pic. Even with just the small amount I have lost already I look a lot better.

You would only allow me to ONE window a day?!?! Who do you think you are? A psychiatrist or what?!?!?!

LMAO!!

Missy

Cute pic of you as a baby Missy do you want more then 1 window a day? I thought the other time you like to spend playing with turtles. i didn't want to take up time with more windows. I have a ravine behind my house there is a creek down there you can have all the turtles you want. ;-) ;-) ;-)

LOL!! Turtles and windows...I am in heaven!!

Count me in, I need to get motivated to take off more weigth. Don't mean to make excuses or chicken out, but can I start on Feb 1st? Just got word yesterday that my mom will be passing in the next couple of days and my sister & I will be down with her until she does & then the funeral and all. I am sure I won't be able to stick to a diet as we will be eating out all the time. I guess I will start in Jan, will give me something to look forward to.

Does anyone know how expensive canned grapefruit is?????? Highway robbery, however I buy it since I can't go grocery shopping. DS went grocery shopping fro me yeterday since he is home for Christmas break. 18lb bag of grapefruit was $5 that is a lot of grapefruit so I canned some tonight. Only 4 pts since the other canning jars are in the laundry room and I hate to go down there when it is dark. I am having a Janice night. All the grapefruit peels I put in the blender with a little water. I am going to go do pilates then give myself a grapefruit body scrub. It has alpha hydroxi (SP?) so it takes off the top layer of skin and gives you a shine. I will do it to my face too. It deminishes wrinkles. Before I start this PROJECT I will make a pot of tea when I come out of the tub I will check back here and then work on the baby quilt quilting. I should be finished with that by Sat. I feel if you take care of you, body, mind and soul you will feel better and the wieght will come off. If you look like sh** why bother to lose weight. I can say this cause I was/am fat I haven't taken care of myself even though I had lost 30 lbs. I still have between 30-40 lbs more to lose. However I now want to be motivated to not look good with the weight loss but look GREAT with everything. :thumbup:
