That is a great thing Diana! If we can't have one here, I'm just going to post my weight weekly. Being accountable is very helpful!!!

Very helpful indeed and embarassing ...lol...at least for me. I do need to try harder, but when you're not very happy it's hard to really care. I'll tell you one thing for sure....I will sure be happy when I see all of you!!!!

Just think Janet.. one of these days Ricky will have kids, and they will need a healthy grandma to play with

I can't wait to meet up with everybody, too!

Well, it's Wednesday evening - so tomorrow must be Thursday. How did everyone do this past week?

I didn't do as well - I had to eat out more than I would have liked (when I am trying to control my eating). I think I lost a pound, but could have lost 2 if not for too much restaurant food.

How 'bout the rest of you?

For you ladies that want to lose weight I recommend you have at least 5 small meals a day. Quantity matters alot when your in a diet, what you want to do is train your tummy to take in less food. Pack your refrigerator with veggie trays so you can snack in between. Also remember fruit juices have tons of sugar too, better than soda thought. If you do cardio excercise, feel free to indulge once a week in a meal you've craved. Fish is good for dieting but keep in mind salmon has alot of oil, so a white fish is a better choice. If you want to substitute sugar I recommend you use Splenda I think natural sugar is healthier but hey. Steam all your veggies, make sure you don't overcook them or they will lose there benefits. Use herbs for seasoning, throw away the salt. Fiber-Fiber-Fiber

When it comes to exercise, weather is not an excuse. Walk on your tipi-toes going up the stairs. When your sitting down cramp your stomach in and out ( you can squeeze your buttocks muscles too). When nobody's home march (raise your knees as far up as you can) everywhere you go. Those are little things you can do to fire up your body. Then next thing you know you will be craving to go out and start joggin. Cardio-Cardio-Cardio

That's all I can think of right now, hopefully it helps a little.
