Have no fear shellfish---I'll add you to this weeks pledges...you're only on the "new" list for a week, and I only do that so that the rest of the platoon can throw in a welcome or two. Nice job on the loss, btw!!!
jdub--welcome! Are you male or female? Just asking since you mentioned you were gonna marry "the girl of your dreams..." soon. Workout advice for most around here range from Jillian Michaels "shred" dvds, to c25k running programs (couch-to-5K race), and my own personal favorite, this free link...(lots of tough challenges):

Pokey--Glad you're back...you better get your butt-er burning booty butt to the gym or else you and a few others are going to be facing the disciplinary board! You get some leeway tho because you did workout and we knew you were going to that wedding. This coming weekend is your 5K, right?
Courtney--Sarge is thrilled with all your new found enthusiasm. I really, really hope you keep if up. You'll be so happy and so proud of yourself in the long run, but you're right...one day at a time! One pound at a time!
Josey--Just noticed your siggy...maybe the 50lb mark this weekend!!!!
Me1st--Will power dust on nixxing those "cancer sticks"...you can and WILL do it! BTW, lol on subtracting a bunny...too funny!
Anon--You've "caught up on all the posts..." Wow...you're in a better place than Sarge right now. Our platoon has grown rather quickly. I'm still trying to catch up and try to get to know everyone as best I can.
Feel free to post away...that's what we're here for. The more accountable you feel to the thread, the better you're gonna stay on course.
BNH--One-derland is calling your name!!!!
Kendra--Good luck in the new job. Please, please keep us in the back of your mind as stories arise during the day. I gotta believe your hours at McD's are going to provide excellent fodder for stories to keep us all on track. Like maybe instead of asking for $'s from customers you can mistakenly tell them the total number of calories they're about to consume.
diyana & others on the "old" kick. You may have missed Sarge's birthday bash and weight loss goal, but Sarge is 55! No more "old" talk... Anyone in the platoon older than 55 or is Sarge the old fart?
Rmc--Yes YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT than conference calls and cr*p. WTG on scheduling workout time for yourself.
Chesh--We've known all along you were nuts! But it takes one to know one...nuf said.
MadamB -- Sarge done with Round 1. As soon as personals and updating finished here Round 2 begins and you'll be eating my will power dust!
Dumplin -- You said it best yourself, "I am whining which is getting me no where.... I want this bad ! I am sorry..... I did not lose those 2 lbs I pledged. I'm sorry I did not walk those 20 miles I pledged......I want to do this . I think I have just been lazy. I don't have another excuse!" Lean on the strength of others in the platoon...MAKE IT HAPPEN THIS WEEK!
Envelope -- Way to stay the course. Wooshing occurs when you least expect it! If you find yourself on the cusp again, just take some time to read the little hidden gems in the signatures of many in the platoon. Or, simply type in large, bold print, SOMEONE STOP ME BEFORE I EAT AGAIN!
Reso--Congrats again and thank you for posting your photos. I love how your just lit up the board with inspiration!
Peanutt--Way to go on cutting your
PR in that 5K...especially with the breaks! Also, I'm thinking you'd make an excellent head of our disciplinary board! You and MadamB in a good cop/bad cop kind of commission. You offer those struggling with a plan to overcome their obstacles and Gooey just breaks out the can of Wup on them.
GET YOUR BUTT-ers TO THE BATTLEFIELD TROOPS! Left, left, left, right left....
