  • This time is going to be different than any other time!

    Hello everyone! I am totally excited to be a part of ADBB. There are sooooo many success stories that there is no way I cannot be motivated to succeed. My goal is to lose about 100 lbs. I know it can be accomplished and I know it will take time. This will be my finest hour because it will be done little by little!

    Hi there Minofex! Welcome! Nice to have you join us here.

    You're so right not to want to lose all in a rush. Slow and steady (though you might find it goes quicker than you think!) is the ticket.
    Use the board for all it offers and post lots. We're all in this together!
    Before and after:






    PLEDGING FLIGHTS
    Completed: 1st set of buildings and mountains (Everest,M.Blanc & Kilimanjaro, twice); Tower Masts & Chimneys; More virtual buildings; Challenger's Choice x 2 (volcanos and mountains on Mars). Currently climbing: Mount Snowdon again: 416/475

    Start 10 Jan 2005. Maintenance since Aug. 2005.

        Great attitude and congrads on your start. If you want it bad enough, then you'll get it. Stay strong, stay focused and keep yourself motivated. Stay true. God Bless,Joe

          With that attitude, there's no way you can't succeed! Well, so long as you follow DANDR to the T! Also, try adding in some light exercise... even walking. I think you'll find that you really will lose quickly, which is even better motivation!

          Best of Success!
