I started January one...I'm sure like many others...lol...I started at 321...my first week I focused on getting the crap out of my mouth..I lost 5 pounds..the next week I began focusing on getting more water..and I started to exercise a bit...I think three times...I lost 2 pounds..it was better than a gain..lol..this past week I worked out every day of the week..I went to Curves, I worked out on my elliptical...30 minutes...This week I lost 5.5 pounds..it was great..so far for this year I have lost 12.5 pounds!!!! I starting blogging on myspace.com/alanaspring, so that all of my friends and family would know what I was doing, and they have been so supportive..I even put pictures of my scale on there..and my big ol butt!!! It was my way to give it up..stop hiding..tell the truth and repent....I am 30 years old..and I dont want to go through anymore of my life overweight..I want to wear cute clothes, I want to ride a motorcycle, I want to drive a bumble bee...I wanna run with my daughter..and not bounce..lol...I am one hot mama on the inside..i just want it to show on the out....I notice that a lot of people have a lot of questions about calories..My post this past sunday is about calories..which is exactly what brought me here...to count away..1,1 glorious pound loss HA HA HA....lol...

    That is a great success story, well done and keep it up.

    Im a little disheartened my self as this is my 1st week and I thought i'd done pretty well but the scales are'nt telling me that.......I still weigh the same I did when I began. :brokenheart:

    That is great, I like you, also started on the 1st of January. I started @ 222, I have cut down what I put in my mouth and go to the gym every day but Saturday and Sunday. I love this site and log all my food and exercise everyday like clockwork. I really don't like the scales so, I am choosig to get on it only once a month. My clothes already feel much looser, so I know I am losing but won't find out that magic number until the 1st of February. You are a great inspiration, keep it up, so that I can keep it up also...
