    Weight Losers

    Hi, everyone!

    Quitting alcohol was my first goal to a healthier lifestyle. Now, I'm committed to lose 30 extra pounds.

    Would love it if anyone would like to join in and keep track of weight, share ideas, motivate each other so we can reach our weight goals.

    My plan: skip dinner whenever possible, cut carbs, and treadmill/just dance on wii every night.

    I want to lose 1-2 pounds a week.

    Ok, here we go:

    Day 1: goal 30 lbs (0 lb. loss so far)
    Alcoholic (or Ally)

    Please feel free to block/ignore my posts through your control panel.

    Hey Alky

    I'm with you on this! I want to lose thirty lbs also. Like everything else it just takes a commitment and patience. I mean this fat belly didn;t get there overnight!

    I have lots of great clothes that I can no longer wear, etc etc. It makes me almost more depressed than alcohol (not really)

    I can do it with sensible eating and moderate exercise. I'll have to start tomorrow since I already had 5 red velvet mini-brownies. Sugar is such a HUGE issue for me when alcohol is no longer in the picture! Ordinarily I would never eat so much junk!

    So it's on, and we can report in every week if you like. I really have no choice. I cannot afford to buy any more FAT clothes. I have yet to figure out what to wear on my work trip next week. And my closets are full of great business attire, but NO! Cookies,cake etc have made it impossible to wear all that , LOL

      Ann:
      So glad to have you as a weight loss partner!

      Me too about the business suits. Clothes always look better on skinnier people! So annoying! Shopping for clothes is no longer fun when I keep getting discouraged at how the clothes look on me!

      So you can report weekly if you want. I'm going to record daily of my weight, knowing it will fluctuate due to water. I will weigh in the morning cuz most people are the lightest in morning. .

      Lets get this weight off!!!

          OK GUYS IT"S ON!

          I am miserable with this fat! Seriously-just miserable! Very uncomfortable. I have never been this fat except with pregnancy!

          I don't cook and I'm generally lazy about food preparation. I've done this before and I can do this again.

          Let's roll

              Anna, you can do this, we can do this! Good home cooked food helps with depression and general wellbeing too. I hate carrying extra weight. Never had a problem until alcohol entered my life :-( I too have a whole wardrobe I can't fit in to. Nearly got there a while ago but spiralled down again. As you say, let's roll! :l

                          Hi all.....I would like to join you. I need to lose 15 lbs. I too have a closet full of clothes that I'd love to get back into, and hate the way clothes look on me now....especially bathing suits! Not that ill ever look that good in them again, as I'm 59 years old and the old body will never be as firm as it once was....but a slimmer one would be nice!

                            So good to have partners in wt loss! I am appalled at being so fat!
                            I have not been this fat since ny daughter was born!

                            SO off we go! I cannot handle it anymore.

                            AND my bf cooks and eats a lot and tries to get me to eat eat eat. It's ridiculous

                            Ladies-this is the beginning. Weight loss starting now

                              Hi all.....I think I'm the one that wants to lose the most.
                              I would like to lose 50 pounds. (The truth is that I want to lose more than that. But, I'm going to say 50 for now.) I lost quite a bit a few years ago but now I've gained some of it back. So, here's to losing it for good. :thanks:
