    Welcome, Pam! Not sure why you're waiting until April 1, hopefully it won't simply be an April Fool's gag!

    Welcome to MFP @PamelaGenner

    Don’t wait.

    Every so often for years, I was going to “start on Monday”. I’d go to the grocery store and stock up on all my favorites because “I’d never get to have them again”. And every single time, Monday came and went, and I was that much heavier from the weekend’s fattening session.

    It wasn’t until I flipped the switch and said “I’m starting now” and emptied the pantry and freezer and gave everything I perceived as “bad” to my neighbor, that things took off.

    Speaking from my own experience, postponing is simply…..postponing. Indefinitely so.

    And, as far as projects go, I was as big a project as anyone here, ultimately losing just under 100 pounds. There is no shame on this site. We all paddle in the same boat. So if you’re a project, think in terms of one of my needlepoint kits.

    Beautiful soft and colorful but still in pieces, ready to begin, til you take it all in hand and create something wonderful with it.
