Scale Back Alabama?

Hey all, I joined the Scale Back Alabama program/contest and I am just wondering if anyone else has joined it or has any ideas on how i can achieve the goal? The goal is to lose 10 lbs. in 10 weeks ... easier said than done. I've cut back my calorie intake and started drinking more water and I've lost 5 so far but gained back 3. I'm trying not to get discouraged by the gaining back of those 3 lbs. but again easier said than done. So if anyone has any tips or advice it would be very appreciated! Thanks! Chanin

I'm in Alabama and I haven't even heard of it. I start my 10 day pre-op diet on the 11th so that's when I plan to start scaling back....lol. Sandi
