I did it when everyone told me it was pointless!

I have shared the fact that I'm trying to lose weight with people. Most of the comments I have gotten is that it's pointless to try to during the holidays. Well, I did it! I made my Christmas goal of 139.3 pounds! So to all those that say it's pointless to try and are waiting til Jan...what is the point in waiting another day?

I don't believe it is pointless to try! I know if someone really wants something they have to go for it and just do it! I am happy for you!! You have done great!

Wow! Good for you!:drinker: :flowerforyou: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

It's not pointless at all! I got through the holidays last year (right after starting my weight-loss) and lost also!! I think I read somewhere that the average person gains around 5-7 lbs from Thanksgiving to New Years.........and I lost like 15 lbs in that time last year!! LOL!

You can do anything you put your mind to and The Holidays don't have to be JUST about food!! hehehe!!!

Excellent job girl!!!

You don't know how many times I have heard people say that. And most of the time, they say they will start in January, and then they never do. I figure the holidays is the best time to start. That way you can loose weight during that time, instead of gaining. You're right... why put this off until another day?!

I agree darlin. For me it's like, do I stop brushing my teeth because it's a holiday?? Nope, and neither am I going to change my "new-formed" eating habits:flowerforyou: denise

No u did it like a winner and ... good job to u

I did it when everyone told me it was pointless!
