Hi All,

I've been lurking regularly, but have many months to post.  truth is, I haven't lost a single pound in a year.  A couple weeks ago, i did some deep soul searching and faced up to some harsh truths about my diet this past year.  So, long story short, I've been working out 6x/week for te past 2 weeks, cut out most unhealthy snacks (I get ice-cream on Sundays) and have lost about 3 1/2 pounds!!!

I have about 50 pounds to go.  My partner and I are going on a trip to Greece and Spain teh end of June and my goal is 30 lbs by then. 

So, there's my update.... :-)

Hi John, nice to meet you.

Congratulations on the recommitment! And you are to be commended on the soul searching (which I believe is the ultimate key to success in this journey). Personal integrity is worth hours in the gym, IMHO.

That you are choosing to continue the work is sooooo much more important than what has been in the past.
You are back on the horse (or bike, your choice, lol) and riding again and you deserve .

Please allow me to join in by saying welcome back and get the support you need here as well.

Hugz,
Raven

Welcome back John :)  I hear ya on the weightloss stoppage.  I've been toying with the idea to do the 5 day pouch test.....getting back to basics and everything.  if I can get enough people interested in it, I think we should do it!

I'm in for sure babe! Just let me know.. (if we do it I might be forced to break down and weigh...)
I have found a new way of life that has kept me at Goal since 2008.. And keeping it that way!

Welcome back! You can get back on the wagon. And I'll bet you continue to loose during your trip - some serious hills available for hiking!
