Another jumping in with y'all!

[vital]

I just introduced myself on the challenge sticky thread. In summary, I need to lose about 25lbs. I'm going on a cruise in October of 2007 and want to be comfortable and confident in my bathing suit. I'm not talking thong I'm talking whatever I wear!

I need some tips on how to get started. Do I check in everyday or how does this work? I'm looking forward to getting to know y'all and encouraging you through this rough spot in our lives~!

vital to WISH! this is a great forum to help keep you focused and encouraged on your journey toward a new healthier you!! cyber high five for making the commitment and outloud to a wonderful group of understanding and friendly folks to keep you accountable and share in your successes!!

you can check in as often or as little as fits into your schedule and yet still keeps you accountble really you set your goals and we are here to encourage you to them! i just noticed the New Year New You August challenge is a buddy challenge -- maybe that would be a great one to start with? otherwise just jump on in any active challenge like Lose 5 for August, August monthly exercise, etc -- or start a new one that suits your goals and you may be surprised at how many others will join you!!

ONWARD AND DOWNWARD!!

YAHOO!!! You're going to feel sooooo good on that cruise and you have a good time frame to make some great healthy changes before then! I would go out and pick out a "fantasy" outfit that you'd love to wear when you go...hang it up and KNOW you'll be wearing it! Or pick out a nice suit..they're all going on sale now!

WELCOME!!!!!

Hmmm, a bathing suit is a good idea! Especially since they are all going on sale! Thanks for the idea! I haven't done very good this week so far. I'm a nurse and have to take call for one week out of the month. This is that week and we have been very busy and I've had to work late. Working late equals bad eating around here! Hopefully I can get more into it next week!

Welcome to Wish!

I am so glad you have come to join in on our quest.

Sorry about that working late and bad eating thing. That is difficult for many. I WISH I had the answer to that for my DH.

Come often, post lots! You can make it!
