    Hi tearose, welcome... I don't think there are any rules... I think we all just use the website and the message boards in whatever way will be of help to us, and share whatever thoughts or questions or recipes that we have. I'm posting my weight just because it helps me to be accountable, but if you don't feel like posting your weight, it's no big deal.

    Lifestyle change it a good idea, that's what I'm trying to do also. Tired of starting diets and want to just make it so I don't need to deal with the weight issue anymore.

    Hi everyone! Hope you are having a good day. It is day 4 of my new eating habits and I feel good. I have a positive thought I wanted to share. I was talking to a co-worker who I always talk to and she showed me a picture of her. I couldn't believe it! She was almost 300 lbs. and I never would have guessed it were her. She revamped and took control of her life and eating habits and now wears a size 4. I never would have known! She looks like she was born skinny. I asked her her secret and she said - change of lifestyle!!!! She started watching what she ate and working out a lot - I believe she started walking and graduated to a treadmill - but she is one inspiring chick!

    We can do this. We can be inspiring to others! What a neat concept. I want to be somebody's inspiration!

    I'm not sure when we weigh in but that would be good to know. Today I start my home exercise program "Kettlenetics" Today has been good so far. I think I will be able to stay within my calorie count and I havent eaten any sugar today! Usually I can't go a day without it so 4 days without it is a milestone I havent accomplished in a very long time. I hope everyone is having a good strong day today and if youre not, tomorrow is ANOTHER day!:flowerforyou:

    Hi All - today was a good day... busy again but I was able to keep the eating under control. I am done for the night except some water which I am craving. Looking forward to the weigh in to see how I am doing. Isn't that a good thought?

    The county I work for is doing a biggest loser contest. If you wanted to join you have to pay $10. But the one with the highest % lost wins. This the 3rd year that they have done it. Maybe this time I won't donated to some else cause. :bigsmile: and I will be the big winner.

    I still have some calorie to get in because I couldn't eat the portion sizes Ii weighed and put on my plate. I stopped when I was full and reweighed what was left and subtracted it. So now I get a little snack when the kids go to bed. I'm on glass 9 of water intake for the day.:drinker:

    Can't wait to weigh in tomorrow morning!

    I hope all of us will be someones inspiration, my little brother is mine. Today has just been a bad day for me in general. I feel hungry and nothing seems to do the trick. If I eat something it makes me hungrier. I also am on here more then facebook now. So my mom is starting to kick my butt on my games but thats ok this is more important.

    Today I had a talk with my husband and let him know that I felt like he wasnt supporting me like I thought he would. So I am hoping it worked. Just a few people know I started the year out on a mission to eat healthier. So I dont have much support so you girls are a big part of my support group.

    So tomorrow weigh in..... ? I am in Washington so it might be later then some of you.

    thicansxy, we are here for you!

    And you need to eat breakfast. You can totally get to 1200, easy, if you ate an actual breakfast instead of just coffee (if you drink an ensure, that will add almost 300 cals to your day, and get you up to 1,000). It really is the most important meal of the day!

    Hi Everyone,

    Ok my weigh in today was 305.5 lbs. Down 5 lbs from last week. I'm very happy with that. that's really more than I would have managed in several months before. It just goes to show that logging your food really does make a difference.

    Yah!!! Lets kick some butt. Rather, let's lose some butt :wink:
