    I would love to join in as well! I'm 42, live in Pittsburgh and have yo-yo'd for far too long! I hit my highest yet last summer and managed to lose 10 lbs, but haven't been able to lose any more than that. My issue: sugar (cookies specifically). I contemplate 'detoxing' from sugar, but that means I have to give up coffee too -- and that my friends is HUGE. Not sure if I'm ready to do that. Has anyone else quit sugar?

    Thanks for the motivation!

    Welcome to everyone! I've been a yo-yo dieter for faaaar too long too. However, the last 3 months have been amazing. Sure I've had my ups and downs, but it's much easier to get back on track and I don't feel as guilty when I take a splurging day (or weekend like I just did). Before, once I fell off the wagon I was off for a good 9 months or a year, sometimes even longer.

    Patty - I'd say cut sugar out slowly. For example, cut out the cookies but keep the coffee. Eventually you can cut the coffee back to 1 cup/day or something within moderation. I've cut soda out of my diet before, but it was gradual. When I went cold turkey I found it gave me daily headaches. It's a process, that's for sure!

    I'm excited for this challenge - if only to take of the 20 pounds I just gained in the last 3 months - argh! :)

    I am 39 years old, work full time, have two children, and just feel so sick and tired of being sick and tired! :)

    Nice to meet everyone! I'm ready to go! Drinking water and actually brought healthy food with me to work today - that's half the battle.

    I see to do much better when I am held accountable by other people. I am logging my food already for the day and will fill up my cup in a minute to start drinking my water.
    I didn't really give an introduction...My name is Jacqueline. I am 23 years old and engaged. I am getting married in May 2011. I definately want to look and feel healthy on my wedding day. I have been stuggling with my weight most of my life but mainly for the past 3-4 years. I have a down fall for going out to eat and eatting sweets such as chocolate and cookies. I can't seem to ever get below 140 lbs. And when I seem to get close I gain it all back.

    Good Luck to everyone on having a healthy day!!

    introduction for me...
    i'm denise, working mom of 2 kids, nick 6 and emma 3 (well they will be on the 18th and 15th of this month)....i work for a general contractor as the office manager/accts payable/receivable/RIGHT and LEFT hands to the owner....we build high end residential homes mostly in Palm Beach, FL...i have been working for him about 3 months less than i have been with my husband - 10 years......mike and i will celebrate our 7 yr anniversary in november and live in south florida (palm beach county)....

    i started my journey in january 2008 after having my daughter in september 2007...i realized it was really time to get the weight off that had always been there plus all that i had added with each pregnancy and just living a happy married life....my highest was 260 after having my son and the lowest i remember in the last 10 yrs is 190 for like a minute....i have no idea what my ultimate goal is but right now i just want to be below 200 - 199 has been my goal weight since i started in january 2008....the way i'm working it right now i could actually be there before the end of this year, 2 yrs later than i planned but i'll take it....

    this new way of life makes me happy....my kids actually realize that exercise is important and that mommy is doing this to be healthy...my son has done about me papers at school and has written/dictated that mommy's favorite thing to do is exercise...who would have ever though that oh so long ago.....i just want them to realize that being active and eating right is the way to a good life - when you add chips or doritos to your pizza or sandwich order you are not necessarily making the best food choices...no blame, my single mom did the best she could but let's just say, i didnt get healthy eating habits or fitness advise from anyone in my family growing up....anyway, that's me....i'm really excited to continue my journey with you folks and look forward to the challenge of beating you all each and every week with percentage lost :wink: just kidding :happy:
