  • Let's get a jump on our New Year's resolutions and lose some weight before New Years! Who is in? I've lost 10 pounds so far with doing low carb/Atkins and I'm going to try to lose 20 more before New Year's
  • I will join you. I'm starting the old 1972 Atkins diet in the morning (November 6). I am moving to a new place the day before New Year's day and I want to lose several pounds before doing that.

    A new place and a new YOU! Good for you
  • I'm in! My goal is between 10 and 20 lbs down by New Year's. I leave the range because I tend to plateau and then "whoosh" - even though my body feels like it is changing throughout. Excited to continue on the journey with you all!!
  • I'm in - going for a low goal this time I figure I can add to it if I go by -

    and my NS Goal is to do 12,500 steps every day ....
  • I'm in! My goal is 15lbs by New Years!

    NS goal is to get back into running - 4 times a week.
  • Count me in,, im way over due for a tuneup!! I will also ride my recumbent bike once a day , which is a big commitment for me. I tend to slack of exercise equipment.. Looks like winter is here so wont be going out the door much. With two new knees im so scared of falling. I took a nasty fall last month and it sure has made me gunshy. I will be lowcarbing and using atkins which has always worked for a good program. good luck everyone...
  • My other goal is to rejoin our nearby gym - at least for the winter months. My kids are finally old enough that I think I'd trust them in the childcare room, which I guess takes away my final excuse that my hubby gets home too late for me to go. When I'm in the swing of things, I look forward to my gym time. I've managed to take 5+ years off, though, so it's just making that first step that feels overwhelming. But I can do it!!
  • Yesterday was a test in resolve -- went out with the girls - went to Panera for dinner -- ate the Asian Sesame Salad with no wontons and the sauce on the side - and happily counted the 15 carbs for a great treat then we went to the new James Bond Movie "Skyfall" which was good

    but I got home at 10:20 and walked in front of the tv to get the last half of my steps in ... so 12,660 steps done YAY
