So I am over the moon right now about my 1 pound loss! :happy: I joined MFP about a week ago and I love it. I lost 6 lbs in the last 5 weeks, prior to joining and I weighed myself this morning and I lost an additional pound this week. Yay me. :bigsmile:
I never really introduced myself....so here goes....I am a mother of a wonderful 3 year old daughter and a wife to a wonderful man. I am from good ol' Alabama. I live about 5 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico, so I love the beach. The beach just doesn't love me right now!! lol :laugh:
Right now I am participating in a program called "Scale Back Alabama". It was started by Roger the contestant that was on the Biggest loser a few seasons back. He was on the couples show with his teammate that played alabama football with him. If anyone else from Alabama is participating let me know how you are doing. So I am about 5 weeks into the 10 week program. The object is to lose atleast 10 pound in 10 weeks. I think I am off to a good start, although I hope to lose more than 10 pounds by the final weigh in.
So.....its been about 2 weeks since I have lost a single pound and when I weighed myself this morning I had lost one. I am so proud of myself for sticking to my calories and drinking all my water. All you guys are an inspiration to me!! Thanks

    laughingdani, you hav every right ot be proud. You have done a great job. I hope you lose the 10 pounds in 10 weeks. It takes strength to stick through it when you are not losing, and you did. That is awsome! Congradulations and keep it up!
