Right on board with you, sister!
My Why:
I just hit my breaking point with my weight and forced myself to conquer it. I really started to fear dying of a heart attack at a premature age
My January Goal:
Lose 15 pounds.
I will be checking in here regularly Good luck to all! Or should I say, strength!
I would love to join you all! My goal is to lose 60-70 pounds and get back to my healthy weight. I am doing a medically supervised fasting program with shakes, entrees, etc. I start on Jan 6, which is my first meeting. I would love to start Jan 2, but was advised not to by my weight loss counselors.
Count me in! What do we do to motivate each other or set little goals? I'm new to this site, so am not sure about the informal rules and regulations.
I'm in! Nataliejo, you are such a rock on this board, thank you! And your determination and success is heartening to the rest of us!
My Why...........
To get healthy and in shape so that I can participate in the active things my family does instead of sitting life on the sidelines. To get my blood sugar levels and blood pressure down.
My Goal for January...........
To break my psychological glass floor of 230 pounds (my goal is 229 or better!)

Okay, I started today....I could not help myself and I really wanted to start. I am HUNGRY, but so far, so good. I am going to be a 10 this year, for sure!
What was the big dal about starting earlier than the 6th. DId they say why they wanted you to wait? This way you can go in with experience, though, no?

I can't start yet as I just ordered my meals. But my little goal is to lose 10 lbs in Jan.
My big goals are to be a size 12 again and to lose 139 lbs. That's an entire person........I call her Mable. I wish to lose Mable, I'm tired of carrying her around.
So you all did great with your WHY and your small steps to get you there.
It's also important to reward yourself for your success. We never want to use a food as a reward so think of something to pamper yourself like a warm bubble bath, a new nighty, quiet time with a book or a chat with a good friend.
Anyone want to share their reward?
I'm really close to goal so mine will be some new clothes that fit the new me.
Everyone has great WHYS and are setting small goals to get there. It's one week into the NEW YEAR so everyone should have a weigh in to report. You can add it to this thread.
Make sure you post your WHY where you will see and read it everyday. Everyday you should do something, no matter how small, that will get you closer to your WHY.Reward yourself for making each little goal you set for yourself.
How did everyone do their first week in to a whole NEW you?
Hey Natalie!
So, I fell off the wagon, but just stopped to check on you all. GREAT JOB on the 75 pound loss!!! WOOT WOOT!
I am going to be back on, thinking this Monday. Hopefully the second try is better (I was too poor to afford MF with Xmas and could not order!) Should have shipment by the end of the week!
