Hehehe- I already replied to someone on here before I saw this message board section!

Hi all!!!
I'm on day two of a weight-loss plan in order to 'compete' with my work friends in our own "biggest loser" competition. We're going till Christmas and seeing who can lose the biggest percentage of the weight they plan on losing in total (since we're all very different sizes/body types). We've got a cash incentive (everyone put in $50) and whoever wins gets all of it! Even $50 keeps me motivated.
And since diet or exercise on their own do nothing for me, I'm doing it all.
I can't wait to check out more stuff on this site and have the support of all you lovely people!!
Cheers!!!

    Welcome! :flowerforyou: I am so happy you found this site. I have lost 6 lbs in the last 2 weeks with this plan. It REALLY works!!! My advice to you would be to fill out your food diary a day or two in advance and stick to it. Also, do your best to get your workouts out in because they really do make a difference. If you need any advice or encouragement, I'm only a message away! :) Blessings to you and have a GREAT first week! :happy:
