Stopping in to say hi!

[FantasticDisFamily]

Jody (WovenWonder) posted a thread on the cruise board inviting those of us who are working our way to better health through weight loss to stop on over here and say Hi! So that's what I'm doing!

Am at 45 pounds in 13 weeks. I've never done so well in getting my weight under control in my life. Guess the doc managed to get me motivated to doing something for my health this time and it is working!

I wish (oops bad pun) I could say there was a magical formula but there isn't. Simply started a very managed eating and exercise plan. You know use more calories than you consume.

Thanks for the welcome.

CONGRATULATIONS!! What great success you've had!! You'll have to treat yourself to new clothes for your cruise

ZPT1022 - the new clothes are a given. I have absolutely nothing in my closet anymore from "before". At the moment I have 3 pair of chinos )a black, a khaki, and a black and one pair of black jeans that fit. A few blouses that were on the snug side and are now quite loose!

I have started shopping for the cruise - formal, cocktail dress, one pantsuit - but since I've always carried and am now losing most through my hips I'm holding off a little longer on the shorts, etc.

Although I have to say it is FUN to go clothes shopping and I can't remember the last time I said that.

Hi Deb....

We would love to have you come visit us often. Lots of people over here, doing almost every diet imaginable..from Atkins to Weight Watchers...to their own special diets. We have lots of exercisers too. I do hope you decide to stay and visit with us. We would love to have you....

Thanks Glo and everyone. Such a warm welcome I think I'll just have to add the WISH to my regular boards! Well, dinner time is over - I'm off to a classroom to teach. But to quote MacArthur...I shall return!

Deb,
I'm so glad that you stopped by! Now grab a WISH clipart and stay awhile! There are instructions to add the clipart to your signature at the top of the WISH board. We all start the challenge with the plain WISH clippie and as we lose pounds 'during' the time we are in the challenge we get to upgrade our clippies in 5 pound increments. Many people such as yourself (me included) had lost some weight before joining the challenge. Feel free to add that information in your signature also (like I did under my clipart).

You will be so glad that you ventured over here to us. This is such a supportive and friendly board. My favorite place to visit! It was worth the post on the Cruise Board to just have one person get to join us in this WONDERful, MAGICal, WISH experience! (no cruise pun intended -- honest)

I hate it when people drop by and I miss getting to say hello

Sounds like you have done very well with your new healthy lifestyle. What a great example you will be for me. Will you be joining my support group? Please say yes.

We have lots of fun here and I just know you would help keep me motivated, my goal is pretty far off still.

She says with great enthusiasm and then stops to ask, uh...how do you do that?

I just noticed that you've transplanted to Michigan! Which part of our fair state are you now residing in?
