Some of my neighbors and I have agreed to set a goal of losing 40 lbs. in the next 17 weeks; our measurements start today, so we weighed in and met this morning. We're so excited! Going to work on motivating each other, connecting here and on FB, and overall keeping each other accountable while we remove this weight once and for all!

  • What a great idea, so much more easier when you have others around you doing the same thing - good luck

  • Hello,

    That's so funny you posted this because I have 35lbs to lose and I gave myself until the end of August (6months) ... good luck to you on your journey! :)

    This is great! I'm really worried about the challenge, but I'm looking forward to us motivating each other. I've done so many diets that I'm lost at what to do to lose weight, but tracking my calories, exercising and drinking lots of water is working.

    Thanks Geri,

    Rosemary.. If it's working don't change anything. You can do this, I know you can. And just think, you have all of us here to cheer you on. You can call or text me anytime you need...or just walk two doors down and ring my doorbell.
  • Don't think of it as a diet. Diets are temporary. This is a LIFE change...continuous healthy eating. Healthy eating and exercise then you can afford those cheat days :))
