Look forward to the encouragement from you all here. I am also planning to do the weight loss quilt, I'm going to work on my FWS that I started last summer and only made a few blocks for before getting sidetrack. Maybe that way I can work on 2 goals at the same time. The weight and a UFO.

Life happens, doesn't it? My FWS has about 15 blocks done & then we decided to put the house up for sale. Quilting completely stopped as we remodeled for that. No one has even looked at the house but it looks good for us anyway :roll: Let's keep each other going! I really want to finish that quilt...hmmmmm, maybe it will be my lose a pound/sew a block quilt.

Well now I know I have really been out of touch this week, I lost my regular status. I do hope the chaos my life has become will calm down some with the new year. I don't usually make resolutions, but this year my plan is to strive for less. Less clutter, less stress, less chaos, less spending, and of course less weight.

:( :shock:

try the figure 8 stretch extender. everlast's is only $6 today at amazon the other thing is for around $12 everlast has a rowing action exerciser that comes with a DVD. Part goes under your feet so I don't know if you could use it with your foot problem. Because you are rowing it is building arm muscle. I bought my about a year ago it didn't come with the DVD.

I was wondering about that Regular status thing, I seem to have lost mine at well. Maybe posting on this thread will give it back to me.

Strive for less sounds like a great plan, I think I'll adopt that too.

Okay; I got on the scale this morning & it passed the 200 mark, *gasp* I'm starting at 203.5 and will keep going untill I see less the 160!

trupeach, I think I am opposite of you~ I was born & raised in Ohio & now live in Ga. I assume that you are from Ga cause of your screen name but we all know what happens when we assume, right?
