I am GF also, have been for several years for health problems. Don't think I could give up my cornbread though. I have such few bread options. I eat is a couple of times a month. And in the summer love the buttered corn on the cob!!!!!

I also am trying to lose a little weight, around 20 lbs I would be happy, 30 I'd be exstatic!!!!! I already have a pretty good way of eating, being GF cuts a lot of eating issues. I really need to exercise more. I do yoga, have been off the wagon for a few months, but this last week got back on. I do Steve Ross Inhale, but have found a new one on my local college tv station called "power yoga" I've been dvr'ing it and adding it to Inhale. Has anyone tried the yoga video of the "biggest loser" woman (sorry don't know her name"? I have dabbled w/ Windsor pilates have the video set, should really give that a better try.

Well, I'm almost at 180 but was trying to be realistic in setting a goal of 20 lbs. Man, 40 pounds and I'd be at my high school weight. For ME that's unrealistic...I'm over 40...
okay, over 45....so I don't want to punish myself. I'll be watching you closely MeatKing

since were about the same size.

Tea's a good idea. I like mint so maybe I'll get some for myself.

@ arabianequine...just isn't the same

Sounds good Knock kneed

I'm gonna try to drink more water too!! Please let me know, if you think there 's anything else we should do...

Also I was thinking we should have a weigh in day, for everyone who joins us? What do you think, like everyone friday or Monday.. but just every something.. What do you all think?

I know in order for me to succeed I have to be held accountable, have a deadline, have a gun to my head...

I'm all for a weigh in day and a weekly update...but it may not work for others.
How about a friendly competition MeatKing? Of course, no way I'm losing 40 lbs, but for the first 20? BTW...how old are you?

Am I setting myself up for instant disaster?

I'm terrible about drinking water...hate the stuff...diet Pepsi and coffee for me. I will definitely have to drink more water.

Friendly competetion sounds good

For the first 20
Yes, I work better under pressure too..

I'm 32, does that make a difference? I don't think it's a instant disaster... I'm not big on water, but I like it with a slice of lemon and that's supposed to help with weight loss

Nah, 32 isn't instant disaster...I have 14 yrs. on you...it's like giving you a head start

First to lose 20 lbs. gets a chicken inspired gift from the other person....do we have a deal? Do you want my address now or later?

Sounds good lets put a price limit on it, young kids here.. How about $20.00, don't give me your adress yet.. I think I may win..

my only concern is my monthly cycle is about to start so I weigh more, then I really do

we should do our official weigh in this coming Monday or something, although I really like fridays I always weigh less on them

Not that it's any of my bussinnes, but we should plan around your cycle too, since I want to beet you fair and square

what day of the week do you want your weigh in? Anyone else in with us?

Should we do daily water counts?
