I have been running on empty the past few months, so I went back to it as my "pick me up". I don't drink coffee or tea, but I…

I added myself to the spreadsheet - I am official. Love this idea and the idea of maintaining yourself on the spreadsheet. 3. Think about (and share if you feel comfortable) what got you to where you are today. Why did you let yourself go? What was your awakening moment when you knew something had to change? What…

I have quit before. I feel much better when I am drinking water, however, I have slipped back. I like the idea of soda free September. I know it is the 2nd, but I am starting today!

Hi all, Congratulations Julie & Maisie (and proud daddy) I don't know what my goals were, but I know that I have only lost 1.2 lbs and my water and exercise have gone to hell.
