Diet and Fitness Buddies Community Group
A group to help us on diets support eachother.
Happy New Year's girls!
Let's try our best to stay focused and keep motivated. We can do this. We've already done it.... and then life happens and we gain some back.
Let's post daily so that we are held accountable for our actions and will hopefully get the scolding and/or encouragement from eachother to keep going.
Good luck.

Wow. Where has the year gone? Crazy.
I reached my goal and then some but I couldn't maintain it because one of the craziest summers of my life dawned upon me and I couldn't teach myself how to sustain and maintain my weight!
I absolutely enjoyed my new body and how the clothes fit on me! I loved going to any store and immediately know my size and had great pleasure in the fact that the item fit well and looked good on me!
I also throughly enjoyed eating what I wanted, when I wanted and all to my heart's content!
It was fabulous... It was wonderful....
The reality of it is that I gained back some weight. Of course, I knew I would.
I still can fit into those clothes but some of them are quite snug....
The new year is here and I've been waiting for all the gatherings to finally dissipate. I still have to go out of town for a family gathering this weekend but I will focus on myself and my eating habits once again when the dust clears.... hopefully by early next week.
I'm back and with a vengeance to rid myself of the weigh that I KNOW I can!
I finally came back into town (Canada actually) yesterday late afternoon. I tried to get in before a huge snow storm was supposed to hit. Unfortunately, the roads were bad and were getting worse when I got closer and closer. I ended up having to shovel at least one foot of snow before I could get the car into the driveway and unpack. It was crazy!!!
It kept snowing all night and this morning the busses and schools were cancelled! Yay! The kids were still exhausted from our revolving door two-week holiday and they could use a day of sleeping in and getting settled!
Well.... they got it!
I still have to go out and shovel yet another foot of snow! I should do it soon as there seems to be a lull in the snow falling right now. Also, the temperature is supposed to plummet to record breaking frigid temp. I don't want to be out there then!!!
Okay, enough of the weather forecast. lol
I've gained weight. Yup. I knew I would.
My weight this morning was 153.5 lbs. So... I've got to lose 13.5 lbs to get back to my goal of 140.
I don't have any groceries in the house and don't want to go out in this weather! I'll have to ride out the storm and get out and get some fresh veggies and fruit! I don't even have any meat in the house!!!
I want to do a detox soon... to jump start my weight loss....
It is freezing around here! There is unprecedented cold mixed in with the wind chill that makes it unbearable!!!!
So.... school is cancelled for another day!
It will be 2 1/2 weeks of holidays before my kids get back into the groove. I actually think they want to go back badly!!!
Weight is still the same....
WISH YOU VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR SHY AND SIMBA

Hi Raymh!!!! Glad to see you back around here!
Wow..... what can I say???? You're doing FANTASTIC! Keep it up! Wow.
You will be in the 70's in no time. I know you will. You seem to have a fire under you and motivating you to seriously lose (obviously, your brother's wedding) and I'm glad you have something like that. Sometimes that's all it takes to really motivate us....
I think this is the lowest I've ever known you to be at. Way to go.
It looks like we both have the same goal weight. That's great! You will really like how your body starts to take some shape right about now. You might have to lose another 10 lbs but the difference will keep you motivated and keep going.
I was there once, so I know!
I'm sooooooooo proud of you. Just keep going!
I can't wait to hear that you've gone into the 70's.
BTW.. thanks for breaking down your weigh and posting it in pounds..... it really helps to know exactly where you are at. I've done the conversion before to know where you were at but this time it really made it easier to see.
Well the kids are back in school and it looks like we are going to thaw soon! It has been crazy cold....
I hope to do a detox next week. I'm finally going to go out and buy some food!!! I've been making do with what I have around the house..... pasta etc.
My weight seems to have gone up slightly... it must be all those carbs I've been eating for the last few days. Mind you, they were warm and comforting with this cold.
Last time I did a detox I lost about 4lbs and it kept coming off because I jumped right into my plan. But, unfortunately, I had to go out of town unexpectedly the next weekend and all my efforts just failed.
I need to reboot again. Hopefully there will not be any gatherings in the foreseeable future.
