Waiting patiently

Well we have heard from some of you :) Hoping to hear back from the rest of you.

As for me, I am not doing so great, but I am going to join CalorieKing next week. When I was a member of eDiets (before the changed everything so dramatically), I really lost a lot of weight and I was eating healthier. CalorieKing is so much like what eDiets used to be like, I can't wait to try it again

New Member!

Welcome Claire (aurie)! Glad to see you made it!

I'm still here to

I'm still around, eating terribly but exercising a little :) have exams starting on Monday so i'll check back in once its all over with :)

A Helpful Hint

I doubt people know this, but I am not big into completely cutting out sweets and snack type foods. I just don't think this is feasible. I really like what one of my roommates does. She buys the snack foods, but she keeps them in the highest shelf in the house, and not in the typical pantry area. That way: a). they aren't the first thing she sees when she opens the pantry to get herself something to eat. b). She has to go through a bit of work to get them down when she wants them (so if she doesn't really want them, she won't put through the extra effort.

I think its a great idea, and thought I would share.

And as for why I didn't start my diet today after all please see my regular blog :)

Hi

Thank you for the welcome, Leslie and I love the new look. I've decided that next Monday is going to be my offical day one. This week has been awfully busy and I've been eating out heaps. I'm going to be basing my eating on Weight Watchers since that's what I'm familiar with, although I won't officially be attending the meetings. I also aim to exercise more, though now being in winter that is certainly going to be a challenge in itself! Maybe I'd better find the legs to my rebounder. The mat is tucked between the computer desk and the wall and keeps looking at me reproachfully!
So next Monday will be it!

Starting Over

I am starting my diet over! I am bound and determined this time :) As most of you know, my birthday was on Sunday. I want to be healthy again and buying brand new clothes by my next birthday!

I was going to try today with working out, but after my bit of insomnia last night there was no way I was getting up early to workout.

I still need to create a menu for food. I really like Calorie King's website so I think after my next payday I will subscribe to it. It creates menus for its users :)

New member

Welcome Jayne!

I'd say "Settle on in" but that would be an antithesis of what we are trying to accomplish :)

We may also have two more members soon.

This makes me wonder just how many contributers we can have in one of these blogs :) We may end up finding out.

New look

I hope everyone likes the new look. I noticed that Blogger now has its own comments (shouts of joy!). I'm sorry but our old comments got lost.

Claire, you should have email.

If I missed anyone else please either email me ( greyfort AT gmail.com ) or leave a blog comment here!

Please note: at the the bottom of where you type in your entry there is a little section that says "More post options" If you click on it, it will allow you to turn comments off for your entry (only) and/or change the date/time of your post.

Now for a bit of housekeeping.

I am guilty too! We have slacked off tremedously people. I don't know if we are slacking off our health goals or if its because we have gotten to busy to post.

That being said: If you don't post here by June 7th to let us know how you are doing, then you _will_ be hearing from me! :)
