I would love to join this group. I really need a swift kick in the rear & it sounds like you're volunteering . Just kiddin, I know its a joint effort - kicks all around. I think weighing on Saturday is a good idea. I need incentive to stay on track during the weekend.

Pick Me ~ Pick Me! I would love to join. I do have 10 lbs to loose to reach my goal and this is SO the motivation I am looking for. I started MFP in May 2010 (SW 186 - 5'8"). Got to a weight I was happy with in Sept (155), but man the holidays are hard! I stopped logging for a month, and although I am between 151-154 now, I realized that I need to get back on track. I have eaten the Christmas cookies and had a few too many cocktails, I don't want this to start the weight gain going again.
I not only feel good on the inside, but on the outside too and I want to keep it here!
See you all on 1/1/11 - totally pumped!!0 -
This is great. I need to be held more accountable!

January is a perfect time to renew our goals and reflect on 2010. :flowerforyou: I had to share below with you all! Happy hump day!
Daily Inspiration for December 28, 2010
Katie Jay, MSW
Reflect first, then plan.
On New Year's Eve, many people talk about their plans for the coming year. They make resolutions and hope for better times ahead. But before you start down the resolution path, pause for a moment and truly reflect. What can you learn from the past year about yourself? Have you discovered what works in terms of your health and what doesn't?
You can make resolutions soon (or better yet, set goals), but today look back. You owe it to yourself to learn your lessons, so that you can grow wiser and healthier in the coming year.
Action for the day: Even if you usually don't journal, take a few minutes to do this exercise. Make a list of things you wish you had done differently this past year, and then a list of what you did well. Next to the things you wish you had done differently, write down a step you can take to ensure you won't repeat that mistake. Next to the things you did well write down what you can do to continue having success in that area. Read this list every morning in January.0 -

My starting weight on Jan 1 is 152 pounds.
I waited to see if I will re-lose the 5 pounds I gained during Christmas weekend and I successfully did. I think a lot of it was water gain from all that sodium and sugar.0
