This month I will........................

Hi Gang,

Well, it is December 1st, so I thought it might be a good time for me to reflect what I want for Christmas/Holiday.

Hmmm....what have I been wanting for a really long time? The first thing that popped into my mind is to get healthy and maybe while that happens, to lose some weight at the same time.

So, I am committing to losing 3 pounds this month. Now I know that isn't a lot, but it is a start and I seem to be having trouble getting started once again. If I make the goal too big, I will fail even before I start, so I have to keep it within a goal I think I can make. Really, 3 pounds is not even a pound a week, so with Christmas being in there, maybe I can make the three pounds.

One Day at a Time, One Step At A Time, Five Minutes at A Time, whatever it takes to make my goal.......I think I can, I think I can, I THINK I CAN! Maybe, this time, I really can.

So what do you want for Chirstmas and what is your goal this month? It's a new month, a new beginning. Let's be good to ourselves and there is power in numbers.

I THINK WE CAN, TOGETHER! LET'S SEE, O.K?

Great idea!

This month, I too will lose 3 pounds! That won't get me to my 10 pounds lost for the year, but it will put me in the black and give me the first yearly net loss that I've had in 5 years!

3 pounds of fat from Kyle!

Thanks Kyle,

Just think, if the two of us each lose 3 pounds, that is 6 big ones already. Just think if everyone joined in, I can hear those pennies flying into that candy corn jar already!

You have been doing so well this month, what a loss three weeks in a row and it all started just because you decided to get sick. Imagine that!

Seriously, just keep on keeping on. We can do this together and let's see if anyone else wants to join us.

Have a great week and I'll see Less of you next week, I hope!!! Get it?

Hi Rita,

Just read your post. Thanks for the 2 pound offer. Just think, if we can all pull this off, we will total be down 8 big ones! How great is that?

Anyone else want to take the challenge? I think this is the last week to weigh in before the holidays, we I know I need to be extra good this week.

I think I can...I think I can...Guess I'll find out!

Jean... Rita..... Anyone else.....

Ok ladies.... we have to make a HUGE push this week to reach our goals! It is SO do-able! Just eat right (and enough), EXERCISE, drink the water, and get enough SLEEP. Stay focused this week. We CAN do it....

I know we can.... I know we can.... I know we can ....

I believe in us!

Thanks Kyle, Jean & everyone who believes in (me) us.... It means sooooo much to know someone else believes in me also... It makes it easier and more worth while to believe in yourself IF you have people to back you & encourage you.... Thanks Rita
