I'm in... I need to lose thirty pounds, but I won't be losing it fast... Can't run or even walk, due to a joint condition. But I go biking three times a week, averaging eight miles.  So here I am! smile

Good luck to all of you! I won't be joining now, due to being pregnant (actually, I always LOSE a bunch when I am pregnant!), but after June/July I hope to be able to start losing again! big_smile

lol  No-I can't do a chart- sorry, don't know how. hu
I actually USED to be Babymakes5, and changed my name with Declan. Only one username change is allowed, so I am stuck now! lau
I will be here reading and cheering you on-and as soon as I can I will be trying to lose again. For me, the 17-day-diet works well-especially in the summer when I am getting fresh eggs and lots of fresh fruits and vegetables from my garden!

I'm not sure what I weigh right now. I refused to keep a scale in the house before now but I have one arriving next week. smile I don't mind a weekly chart but would be fine with monthly, too.

*sigh*

Ok, committing to doing this.  I'd vote for monthly charting 'cause sometimes you just have a bad week....

Biking is good!  Swimming too if you want to be easy on the joints!   Even lying on your back, doing the bicycle movement with your legs will add activity.... good while one is watching tv!

hey BabyMakes7  what is the 17 day diet?

I am gonna start with a 6 week goal to drop 10 pounds. 6 Weeks from today is February 11...  They say to reach a goal you need to set up "mini" goals along the way, so my 3 mini goals are: excercise 3 days a week minimum, eat at least 4 servings of fruits or veggies each day, and lose 5 pounds in the first 3 weeks.

Anyone want to join in with some goals and mini-goals?

Well here's to a small victory today... instead of my usual 9:30 A.M. snack, I got on the elliptical for my 35 minutes then did my weight lifting.  Craving was gone and I can hold out until lunch now.  smile

Sorry to butt in but what kind of chart are you needing? For all the participants?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
