Guest guest Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Twenty-one ladies have made a commitment to this group, but most important to themselves, to lose weight. Each of you have set realistic goals. I believe you can meet them. I will be keeping a chart, listing each name, your weight in July and your predicted weight for Aug. Each month, your predicted weight for the next month will be added. This chart is set up to be used through July 2004. Once it is completed, it will be sent to each participant (for framing or whatever you want to do with it.) LOL If anyone else is interested in making this commitment, please post your weight and how much you would like to lose by the first week in Aug. hugs Eunice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 Well, I think I was 329 and now I am 325 so I didn't lose all that I wanted to but this month was my birthday and I have celebrated some. I should have taken that into account when I set my goal for 9 pounds. I am tickled to death that I am continuing to go in the right direction. My goal in August is to lose weight as a result of staying on my food plan each day and exercising some each day. I'm not going to commit to setting a goal in pounds because it kept me obsessed with the scale all month and even though I want to be a part of this accountability with you guys, I am going to commit to eating my diabetic food plan each day and also exercise. Whatever I lose, I will be happy. Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 Lorna--I feel the same way about my weight. I am still ashamed of myself but knowing that I am not alone helps a whole lot. Let's stick together for better us!!! Good Luck to all!!! Sharon in CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 Dear Group I'm typing from a friend's computer. We are still on holiday. My weight now is 190 pounds. I have lost 2 pounds this month. My goal is to lose another 2 pounds in August and start losing a bit more in September. Since being diagnosed with Diabetes in March of 2002 I have lost 80 pounds and have 40 to 50 pounds to go. I hope to be down to my healthy weight by this time next year. I am glad to have a chance to be public about what I weigh. Because my size has always been a source of shame for me. Being up front about it lifts a guilt weight off my shoulders and helps me stay on track. Thanks and good luck and blessings to all.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 That's good. Let's see, the 4lbs I've gain this month and then the 5 I've committed to losing, that's only a lb a day for the next 9 days!

They reported their weight at the beginning of July and how many lbs they wanted to lose by the end of July. Each month, they set a goal of what they want to lose for the month. Yes, you can participate. It is open to anyone who wants to make a commitment to weight loss. You can either post your weight for Aug, or you can wait until I ask for weight loss and goals for Sept.
