    I would imagine, especially the first couple of months that there will be ties. I would be happy to send these lucky winners a FQ as long as there weren't more than 10. If there are more, that is great!!!! I would like to be more informed on becoming Vegan or at least Ova-vegan. I tried it once but can't eat nuts. what is the next best for protein. DH isn't thrilled with tofu. I need lots of help!!!!
    Think long and hard before going vegan.You must get enough protein or your body will not function properly.I figure we were given canine teeth for a reason.If you do go vegan you will need to do supplements.Have you thought of just cutting out beef and doing only chicken and fish?

    If you need a little incentive to lose weight then check out the fat quilts for fluffy people thread. This was started by thelondonzoo. You make a weight loss block for every pound you lose. Some of us will need to make more than 1 quilt but that's ok.

    For Gwyn and Mary Jane, Carrie did start a thread for making a weight loss quilt http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-68430-1.htm. You won't see any of my blocks there, since I haven't lost a pound since we started it, GRRR. Actually for December I gained a pound. Sigh
    When I tried to access the above site this is what I got:The requested resource (/t-68430-1.htm.) is not available.
    Try it without the period at the end. :)

    Big sigh, I would like to lose 30-40 pounds...I CAN DO THIS!
    For those who hate exercise as much as I do, here is a motivational saying to keep you going.

    Everytime I walk, I leave fat in my footsteps :thumbup:
