Yes, here I am back at it again. I haven't given up and not going to, just get distracted sometimes (too often really). I have a definite short term goal of losing 12 pounds in 6 weeks. Losing 2 pounds per week for this amount of time might prove to be a challenge but I know I can do it. Then I'll slow it down some to 5 pounds per month; much more attainable. Letting weight slip up on me and keep putting off what i should have been doing all along has now put me in a worse position. Will I ever learn?September 15 I will weigh 12 pounds less than today!!!
