So is dumping that darn scale. :) Not knowing what you weigh is going to change the decisions you make because that snapshot you get every day is missing. My guess is that by January you will feel better than you have in a long time about your weight, even if it hasn't changed. :)Kyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12496930376646300796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-33815530188029400622007-12-20T00:05:00.000-05:002007-12-20T00:05:00.000-05:00Hope you don't mind me dropping by! I feel for you...Hope you don't mind me dropping by! I feel for you...and don't worry about whether or not it's a cop out..it's a goal-that's the important start! And it's all up to YOU....that's the key to remember. Once you've achieved that goal (and if you want to, you will achieve it) then you can set the next goal starting from January 1...walking for an hour a day instead of just 1/2 hour-and throw out the worst diet culprit and replace it with something healthy. Try that for the month of January-and each time you reach these goals-you will feel better and better about yourself-and realise you can lose the weight and set the bar higher! <BR/>Hope this helps!

I recently downloaded something called "Inside Out Weight Loss" from the podcasts section of iTunes (and it was free !!) and I am finding it very helpful. The author (speaker) addresses lots of the issues you are struggling with ... I'd highly recommend it. And feel free to e-mail me, I'm a regular chatterbox.K-Fabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05034353443364935220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-35370246618413660712007-12-15T22:48:00.000-05:002007-12-15T22:48:00.000-05:00Bloom where you're planted...who said that? :)Bloom where you're planted...<BR/><BR/>who said that? :)Queen Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01125455043064482964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-57943681787559916062007-12-14T09:33:00.000-05:002007-12-14T09:33:00.000-05:00I'm doing the same thing right now.

I'm using these few weeks to make sure I know my plan, organize my pantry, plan a few menus, put together an exercise routine and get my support system in place so I'm ready to kiss this weight goodbye starting in Janaury! <BR/><BR/>We can do this!!Diana Swallow https://www.blogger.com/profile/06617104284642930333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-34292704582572298552007-12-14T06:14:00.000-05:002007-12-14T06:14:00.000-05:00Why do I imagine you banging your head against som...Why do I imagine you banging your head against something before you wrote your blog entry? I do believe the holidays can drive anyone crazy. Temptations at work, family cooking, people talking about succulent food while your trying to stay in focus. I hope and pray you do "hold the line". You may even surprise yourself.

I know that helps me. If I think, god its still 20 something pounds utnil my goal I feel overwhelmed. but when I think ok, only 2 pounds until I get to 179, etc., I have something to look forward to each step of the way.<BR/><BR/>I know that you can do this and be successful and you are right, the time is NOW to keep on going with this, not after the holidays.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02938217552213908906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897733797182084069.post-46361618261001775462007-12-12T08:48:00.000-05:002007-12-12T08:48:00.000-05:00You CAN do it :).
