Well, my first weigh-in was today :( I didn't do as well as I had hoped. I can only hope that the reason could be water retention from that certain time of month (GRRR). My hardest task through all of this is making myself eat. I have had poor eating habits for so many years....Sometimes going 2 or more days surviving on only coffee. That's right. I could go 2-3 days without eating, and not think anything about it. That was a few years ago. Lately, I never eat breakfast, rarely eat lunch and then eat dinner. My goal this week is to make myself eat 3 times a day, and have nutritional snacks. Oh....And the water.....I must drink more water. I will not get discouraged. I will get results. That is my new mantra!!!!

About Me
- Name: Janet
- Location: Washington, United States
I have been married for 10 years and have 4 children, ages 16-26 and 1 grandson, aged 9. I met my husband in an online chat room, and it was love from the moment we met. We recently moved to a litle piece of heaven in the state of Washington last year, with my youngest son. My oldest son is also here to go to college. I picked up knitting again 12/04, while my daughter was going through cancer treatments. I am self-taught, in knitting, crochet and cross stitch.

Don't get discouraged! A reading at that time of month can be off by up to 5 pounds. I applaud your tenacity and you will see results.
I'm rooting for you!

Positive thinking is a good start in reaching your goal. You're not the only one trying to lose weight... and the good thing is that we can support each other! keep us posted though about your progress.
Keep positive Janet! it will all start to come off in great leaps and bounds all at once! You are doing a great job! I really hear you about the not eating thing! I never eat breakfast and barely have a small something for lunch and then a normal dinner. Seems funny that when I did that prior to my 40's, it kept me thin! Now that I'm 40+, not eating is what is making me plump! Go figure! Keep up the good work! You will be so happy you did!
