JoJo...sweetie...I'm from Arkansas... We're close to Texas and Oklahoma, but my heart and body lives in Razorback Country....ARKANSAS...HA!!!
Well, I didn't make it to TWODERVILLE In fact I gained 1/2 lb. back...so 303 this morning. No excuses, just not POP! Be that as it may...new year...new day...new me! That's going to be my motto this year!! I know I can lose 2 lbs. a week to reach my goal of ONEDERVILLE by Jan. 1, 2010. So, I going to take it week by week...small goals...huge success at the end...HOPEFULLY!!!
I wish everyone God's blessings for the new year!
Trish

WELCOME Barbara!! This is probably one of the best group of ladies you could ask for support.
Oh, Barbara...what state are you from? We have this map of members that JoJo put together.
I'm going to try to get my pics taken and posted by tonight...maybe in the morning.
JoJo...I know this wouldn't be fair to you cuz' you're right at your goal...but as for me I have a loooonnnnngggg journey yet. What do you think about having some mini challenges and the BL gets some kind of reward? I don't know... one group sent out baskets with body lotions etc. I don't know if everyone contributed to one person and they were responsible for getting the prizes or what. I've got to have some accountability....having lil' challenges like this make the journey more fun and exciting. Come on ladies...what do you think?
School starts back on Monday and I am so ready to get back where I don't have idle time on my hands. Those precious 5th and 6th graders I have keep me pretty busy!

Welcome back Barbara!! And welcome to the others that I may have missed these last few weeks. Things have been busy and I didn't get a chance to respond to all.
Well, this is it. Another new year!! I am getting myself psyched up. I have two more parties this weekend, but I am in control of myself now. Today has been a pretty good on-plan day!!
I got the black"bible" out and went over info in there again. I was at the dollar store the other day, got a journal for my writing, and a weekly calendar to write my food plan in so I am all set. Tomorrow I will go and get my ground turkey or chicken, some fresh fruit, and I will be set to get things in motion. I am feeling better already!! I just have to keep asking myself one question,"Patti, how bad to you want this to happen?" I will ask myself everyday. Challenges are good, Trish, but we have to think of something to include skinny JoJo in. I am going to set myself a short term challenge of Valentines day, which is 6 weeks away. I want to lose 15 lbs by then, I will take more if it comes off, but I don't want to get discouraged. I will meet you in onederland on Dec. 31, 2009, how about that for a long term goal!? But, first we will have to take the short terms first. Let's see what we can do for a challenge to get JoJo in on it too.
Time to read more in my little black book.
Happy new year to all!!!!!

Hi. JoJo the map is really going nicely. Don't we have someone in Alaska? Is it Leslie maybe? Its really nice to see where everyone is.
Margaret, I see your Hamster is hanging around again. I think he gave you good luck last time. Maybe he will eat all the ick and save you from it!!!!
Hope everyone is doing well. Still working on my 100 lb avi. Hope it is sooner than later. I was so sure that I would have it for Christmas and now it is New Years. Just have to keep working at it I guess.
Well hope everyone had a Happy and Safe New Years day. My daughter, son in law and grandson were on hand to help us celebrate last night. They came in from Maryland and were heading for New Jersey today. It was great to see them.
Guess thats it for now. I think I am going to drag out my magic bullet and check out some new recipes. I think a change is in order. Best of luck to evryone.

WELCOME BACK BARBARA....CRYSTAL!!!
Listen...as much as I appreciate everyone wanting to include me in on the challenge, I understand it is harder for me to be included. Please...my wish is for everyone on our thread to have SUCCESS and get to their goal!!! I have different struggles right now. I still need to lose about 25 lbs and I need to get strong. I sooooo appreciate you all supporting me on this. I count on that and that is so good for me right now. So, I will continue to document my weight with you ladies but please don't worry about the challenges being "FIT" around me. I am so grateful just to be a part!!! I mean it too...I want you all to start getting those high number avatars!!!! So whatevery you ladies want to do...gear it for you all and I will be here.
I need to change Trish's location on the map...and update. Crystal, where are you?

Well, I got my Jan 2009 pics up. I guess you can see a little difference from my very beginning. It's discouraging that I had to take down my 185 pics.
Susan, I think 'hammie' does give me luck! I have been so very good today!
Welcome Barbara!
I hate to have to say this about the challenges. Although I love the challenges and the weekly weigh in, I just don't think I would be able to participate in sending out a 'prize basket.' Money is just really bad right now at our house. Sorry. If y'all decide to do it, I would love to be 'in' the challenge, but not in the getting or sending basket part, if you could understand. Thanks.

Birthday: May 9th 1967
Marriage Status: Happily married for 10.5 (2nd Marriage) to a very wonderful and supportive man named Bo
Children: 19 year old son from 1st marriage

Tell us a little about yourself: I have been morbidly obese my entire life. I was 167 lbs in the 6th grade: 267 lbs when I graduated from HighSchool: 342 when I decided to get serious and do the 6wbmo. I am also HypoThyroid.
What is slowing you down from reaching your goal: My body is not cooperating with me right now. It is a slower process than what I have patience for. I need to eat all my 6 meals and get all my water in. I am also a food-aholic so ... every once in a while I am out of control on portion. Even though it is OP food, it still creates havoc with my metabolism.

Hi all ... enjoying my vacation in Mexico and thought I'd check in.
I live in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada ... south central part of the province. But for the next 8 days I'm in a small town called La Penita which is about 1 hour north of Puerto Vallarta in Mexico.
I had a fairly early night but actually made it to New Years ... didn't over indulge so was feeling pretty good this morning and a bunch of people at the RV Park we are in did a "Polar Bear Swim" this morning. It was lovely and refreshing, but definitely not cold. Then our friend took us for a tour of the Thursday Market at La Penita and drove around some of the sights in this area. Very relaxing.
Just had roasted chicken and potatoes and veggies for dinner. (Pat, pat, pat on the back.)
Lesley

Tell us a little about yourself: This is what I have listed in my MySpace profile:
Daughter, sister, Black sheep Aunt, lover,
friend, Fed, biker, Parrothead, SCUBA diver, keeper of an old row
house, companion to Albert, the best dog evah!(Even though he gets
stinkier every day!).
I am a hopeless romantic, hopeless being the operative word!
Passionate, left of center, Christian (Methodist) in deed if not always
in dogma, a blend of Donna Reed and Marilyn Monroe, sucker for a
Warrior-Poet, fetish for dimples (among other things!)
What is slowing you down from reaching your goal: Myself! I take the easy way out instead of doing what I need to do. I go for the quick, easy, bad for me foods instead of the program foods. Another bad thing for me, being single food is a huge part of socializing for me; restaurants, 'coffee'.

I just want to say that I am PROUD of each and every one of you!!! Sticking with this program is not an easy thing! It is a commitment and we are ALL doing well. 2009 is sure to bring some serious large avatars!!!
Some thoughts for the 6wbo loser challenge. (please add your 4 cents to this)
1) It should run for 6 wks at a time.
2) A dollar figure should be placed on the winning prize. Person collecting the money should do the shopping and shipping. Money should be collected by week #3 from those participating.
3) Commitment should be for the 6 weeks.
4) Rules should apply and no exceptions made.
5) Whatever day is selected for weigh in should be the day that weight is reported. Person taking the weights should provide a Telephone number in case online is not available to those reporting.
I have no problem doing this task unless someone else would like to do it. I don't want to "take over" the group. This is ALL of our group.

OK...I updated my original post to include weight wanted to lose and weight lost so far.
This is a work in progress...I will know when I get there!
I am in for a challenge! I will be more than happy to be the point person for the challenge. It will help me to be focused on the program.
Does anyone have an issue with me doing it?
What day would you like to use as our weigh-in? I would kind of like to do Friday's, keeping it on Tuesday is fine too. I seem to remember that someone has a specific day they weigh-in (sorry, can't remember off the top of my head who!), we could use that day too! Just let me know what you'd like to do!
