I have read about this website in Oprah magazine, so had to check it out. I have been trying to loose for 7 months now, was down 13 pounds but went to Mexico and gained 5. Depressing.
I am excited to be writing and even if no one reads this, I hope that this journal will keep me accountable to myself.
I know what I have to do, I have to eat less and exercise more.
I will finish with a wonderful quote that I read in prevention magazine,
"Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels."
Last week I weighed in at 157, my goal is between 145-140. When I started this diet in Sept of 2006 I weighed in at 167.8.
I wish all my deiting chicks the very best in their weight loss journey

Welcome! I'm new too. I started at 165 a few years ago and got down to 132. Just a few pounds shy of my 130 goal, and then I started gaining it back. I got to like the low 150's then started losing weight, but on Jan 1st I was 148 and despite getting down to 142, I'm now bouncing around 148 again! I just can't seem to get it to budge, but I'm determined. I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet! I'd love to hit my pre-pregnancy (127) weight fro 9 years ago, just once before I die!
