Ok, this group came about from one of KandyJo's posts.... Here is the information regarding the group in her words...


"It seemed that a lot of us are in the same spot (I'm in the middle of my second week) so we thought how fabulous to start a group for all of us on the "same page" so to speak.
So, for now, I am identifying us as JUNE STARTERS becuase we haven't came up with a name yet

Ok, in this post....
People in this group need to have started their new journey to weight loss and/or a fitter person in June....recommittments count...that is where I am right now.... I'm a recommitter and I started two weeks ago... So, if you fit this description, welcome!
We want to start by you posting your starting weight, current weight (ew, I know) weight goal and any mini goals that you may have. If you want to share a little about yourself that is fine too.
We want to really good a good idea of who our group members are, so be sure to reply to this post!!!
Ok.... "

Side Note: I added this so that newcomers would know what the group is about if they come across this thread.

    Sorry everyone, things got really hectic at home this weekend and I ended up without a computer. (At least until we finish the computer room.)

    Here's the spreadsheet: http://junestarters2009.weebly.com/index.html

    Congrats Magglett!! You rocked that challenge!!

    Detenshi, good job! Another great loss this week!!

    Probably because my stomach is a mess rather than self control. Oh well.......at least it is a loss.:brokenheart:
  • kevins(ex)girl - Your son is probably upset about the recent split. Have you considered having him talk with someone or is he just too young?

    On a personal note, I think the Excel spreadsheets motivate me the most. :) Nothing like seeing all those averages and everyone's success right there with mine, even if we've stumbled this week, those total changes and % lost always make me feel all warm inside. (and makes the competitive part of me wonder if I can bring up my stats just a bit. :laugh: )

    I am sorry to hear of your troubles. I hope you can find a quick and painless solution to your trouble with your son. After my separation from my first husband I took my son to a family counseling. He resented it totally, but it really helped. Things always get better!

    Anyways, I am glad to hear you are not eating yourself into a stuppor, but do take care of yourself and eat. You have done an awesome job since the start. Focus on the good things.

    Yay for babies!! :) Congrats to you and your man!

    Congrats to everyone on their losses. I have been feeling so blah lately, with it getting colder and having to study basically 8 hours a day for my finals which were last friday, this monday, and the mega test on friday. It's wearing me down, but the end is near! This weekend should be fun, so I cannot wait for that. I am literally counting down the hours.

    I am trying to be more positive, as of late all I feel like is a debbie downer pessimist stick in the mud. I know this will pass, so I'm trying to focus on things like playing with my dog and watching my fave tv show for a little bit each day. Exercising has completely fallen off the map--I just don't have time. I don't even really leave the house except to go to class for a few hours or to eat dinner with friends. UGHHHHHHH I think the stress has impacted my weight loss too. I just feel crappy, and all I wanna do is eat a bunch of junk or not eat at all, which I know hinders me as well. Ok enough ranting; thanks for listening you guys. I hope to be back to my happy self next week, so until then I will sit back with my notes and my coffee and be buried underneath all my papers :laugh:
