Apparently we all have a little junk in the trunk that we are looking to lose. Some are apprehensive of the Biggest Loser thread elsewhere so we thought we would do a thread amongst our group. Any and every one is welcome to join in. Doesn't matter if you wish to lose a little or (in my case) alot.
BAMB and I do a weekly weigh in on Tuesday mornings. I was thinking of doing something along those lines here. We only give our last digit of our weight. For example, when we started mine was 5, the next week it was 3, the following it was 0, the unfortunately it bounced back to 5, this week it is at 2, so tracking I know I lost three pounds total. For me I lose weight best my weighing myself everyday, it keeps me in check for eating right (I never use the nasty four letter word, diet, GASP) and makes me more accountable each week
So lets have ideas how people want to do this; a weekly weigh in? we keep tally ourself and post when we reach a certain milestone. Give me the feedback, ladies.
