    I am new "again"

    Good Morning everyone!!!

    I am very excited to start again (Ok not really excited about this induction flu that will hit me about Monday) but since Monday isn't here yet - I AM EXCITED!!!!

    I am going to set some mini goals for myself and maybe I wont give up like I did last time (and the time before that).

    1st Goal - 200 pounds by Feb. 10th (Valentines Dance)
    2nd Goal - 190 pounds by March 16th (St. Pat's)
    3rd Goal - 175 pounds by May 23rd - (New York City)
    4th Goal - 150 pounds by June 29th - (40th Birthday)

    That doesn't sound so bad - does it?

    I love looking at the before and after shots - what an inspiration!!! I will someday put on pictuers of me - but the thought right now gives me the willies! I will post photes but I want to see some results first. Yes - I am a coward!!!

    Lots of luck to all!

    Welcome to the board and your goals look reasonable to me.

      Welcome. We're very happy to have you join us. There's a lot here to keep you focused with the before/after stories and photos...journals, challenges and informative posts on life/health issues.

      Don't become overly concerned with the numbers you projected (you may lose faster or slower than the goals you set)...but do take your measurements as that is the best way to stay motivated as you watch the inches melt away and your clothes become looser.

      I'll be excited to see your before/after photos when you post them. Best wishes...we are all here cheering you on! You can do it!
      Starting Date 3/12/04 285/165/145 - F



      Dedication gives wings to our dreams and keeps them in flight! In One Word...COMMITTMENT.
