We meet here to explore, share, celebrate and (sometimes) agonize over how we do (or don't) incorporate weight loss guidelines into our daily lives. "It's a lifestyle, not a diet" is easily and often said, but sometimes not so simply put into practice.

This is a thread for everyone. If you're new to GoaD, or to weight loss, your questions and comments are always welcome. If you're maintaining, or a long-term loser, your thoughts on the topic may be just what someone else needs to hear. If you're reading this, join in the discussion!

Each weekday, a new topic is offered up for discussion.

Monday - crewahl (Charlie)
Tuesday - whathapnd (Emmie)
Wednesday - Al_Howard (Al)
Thursday - misterhub (Greg)
Friday - imastar2. (Derrick)

Today's Topic: Your January Haiku

Whether you love or hate haiku, there's something to be said for the discipline needed to express oneself in 17 syllables (5/7/5.)

Create a haiku that expresses how you're feeling about your diet/ health/well-being so far in January.

    Prone to distraction
    Chipping away at the weight
    Need to re-focus

    Getting back on track,
    slowly starting to focus,
    this time I mean it!

    Wow, we haven't had a good explosive thread that evolves/devolves into haiku in years!

    Making good choices,
    No more excuses allowed.
    Success looking back.

    Making some progress
    Better than alternative
    But still a struggle.

    I'm mostly on track
    Moving, mindset, sleep, eating
    Feeling so, so much better

    And not weight related:

    I am exhausted
    Grandgirls talk and talk and talk
    Oh sweet silence, sigh

    I don't do Haiku
    I never understood them
    Some things never change

    Red lips rustling silk
    Crickets singing in the night
    Stars for my lantern

    I guess that is more of romantic warmer weather wishes.
