My husband has his 20 years class reunion in July so we have already set our New Years Resol. as loosing weight. We have a home gym and treadmill in our garage. So I have to start working out (at least walking with him) and start back watching what I eat.
I always put on a few pounds during winter and had lost 25 lbs. 2 years ago on weight watchers (kinda really just realizing what you were saying, if you look at weight watchers it is about a life change as well. Really looking at what you eat as well as how much you eat). Anyway, I lost my few pounds back this past summer. Well Fall semester killed me. They don't have a microwave at school so I just didn't eat till I got home. Well I have gained 15 of the 25 back and winter isn't over. And classes start back on the 9th.
I can use the support as well.

My stats:
Age 33
Height 5'
weight :( 157 - 159
Goal: to start with get rid of the 15 lbs so I can fit back into the blue jeans I just bought but life goal would be back to 110 - 120lbs. or size 5 or 6. My height kills me.

I can't promise that I will post results weekly (nursing school is pretty demanding) but will post as often as I can. I would like to add my stats to the record and participate as much as I can in the weekly stats.

Good luck all and great idea for a posting..........Christie

Good luck, girl! 20 year reunion! Oh man, my husband has his 50th high school reunion coming up in April! I just want to be ALIVE!*! hehe

It is a shake plan...you take vitamins and drink 5 of their shakes a day...each shake is 100 cal...and really does fill you up...if needed you can also have bars they make or meals....plain popcorn for a snack too...the idea is to stick as close to 500 a day as you can....

Oh man! I'd be gaining weight if I drank 5 shakes a day!

Who are the shakes made by? How big are they? Did you make them or buy them?

Too funny. Years will put your life in order.
And why is it that we can't know at an earlier age what we know as we get older. Seems like life would be so much easier. Suppose learning is an important part as well.

My husband and I both have said a hundred times "If only I had know then, what I know now.....," we wouldn't be in the shape we're in.

OK everybody! Today is the 1st day of the year and I hope all of you have made good on your promise to yourself to make a few lifestyle changes.

It's the beginning of a whole new year for all of us.

I've already walked a mile twice today and am getting ready to walk another mile right now!

Let's get with it - most of you might have tomorrow off so you can workout then, too.

I am a memeber! I joined right before Thanksgiving! Just hoping I would not put any on thru the Holidays! And I haven't!! yayay!!! I have lost 10 since then! But I will find out more tomarrow! I know I blew it this week! Lots of wine last night! Oh well. I go to meetings every Monday morning at 9:30--to get the weigh in and to stay for the meeting! Its great and well worth the 12.00per week to go! Very motivational! But you can never have to much motivation!!!!
Thanks!!

No not shakes like ice cream...unfortunately.....they are a health mix and you add water to it...anywhere from 4 to 10 ounces depending on your taste preference...we really liked the plan it shrunk the stomach(I think)...and they taste good....you have to buy them from them....the linkI posted earlier is one off of their website...

now that sounds like a great way to jump start losing weight - is it expensive ?

Oh no! I was just holding back to see who would jump at this one. Why am I not surprised? hehe
