Fresh start

Postby Elizabeth » February 7th, 2007, 7:20 am

Hi all. I'm coming back to the forum. I've decided to start posting again because I know it will help me to be consistent with my plan. I've been goofing around on and off plan and I'm ready to get serious again. Also, I am going on a cruise (for the first time ever) with family members I haven't seen in a couple of years in June and would love to feel and look better by then.....just 16 weeks away.

I didn't weigh today but will adjust my ticker tomorrow morning. Looking forward be back.

Welcome back and I think posting on the board will give you a lot of accountability, support and suggestions.

Thanks guys. This is day 1 for me. I started in August at 308.5 and got down to 274 in December (34.5 lbs lost) ...I was feeling pretty good...probably too good. My weigh in today was 295. This really sucks....my own fault. I'm on plan and with reading and posting daily I hope to get this off again plus get to a comfortable weight for my cruise in June.

Unca, you put me back down to 10 lb club.

I got to it first. I'm still learning. You were the first one I did this for. :mrgreen:

I have to be careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business.

Thanks Carrie, Nat, Smarti and Hulagirl. I got through day one just fine. I woke up with a bad headache today but its gone now since I took some ibuprophen. On to day 2 now. I've been using the bathroom alot so I know I'm dropping some of the water weight now.
