I was in the top five biggest losers for my team. I am so excited about this. I lost a total of 12.4 during the 12 wk challenge. This is big. I stopped eating fast food and for lent I did not eat out or sweets at all. I rode my bike 26 miles for a charity ride and I worked out every day but 1 every week. Sometimes I worked out on my off day. Something light. I am now getting ready for the next round in our challenge. My team the Amber Amazon Warriors is very good. They make sure you show up which is what I need. I'm pressing for the 1st of January 2013. This is when I plan to look back and say YES I've finally made it to my goal. ttyl 01/11/2012 Today is the start of the new challenge I joined. Go team Amber Amazon Warriors. I feel happy, strong and determined to finish the 12 weeks stronger and smaller. "If it is to be it is up to me." With Gods help of course. 01/01/2012 Seems like I missed out on an entire year. I was working out last year and trying to make it happen but I don't know. At least I'm not all the way back in the 270's. I started the year at 265. I'm now in a new 12 week challenge and I'm going to do everything I can to kick butt. I found out a secret the other day. God specializes in the impossible. YES!!!! I have help I just have to tap into his power so I can finally get to my goal and stop messing around with this. Thank you Lord for all of your help. I truly need it.

I stopped my journey this year. My Mom passed and that threw me off for a long time. I kept trying to get back on the horse but I had a hard time. So know I am preparing to start fresh. I have been collecting recipes and cooking more. I'm also getting ready to get back in to my exercise. I will, I must get it down this new year. 12/28/2009 - 78.00 (not bad coming from Christmas dinner) Hi I'm Joyce. I have been trying to loss weight almost all of my life. I was that overweight kid in school who grew up to be the obese adult. I looked back at my pictures as a child and if I had just stayed that size it would have been fine. Everyone seemed to catch up to me and I just kept going. I like most of you have tried just about every diet out there. It just keeps coming down to the same lesson. Cook my meal, work out and the weight lost will come. Simple right well not really. I am an emotional eater so this is a big problem for me. Yet I will keep trying. Sometimes I think I'm afraid of the success I would have after the weight loss and wonder if this is why I always sabotage myself. hmmm. Yet I will keep trying. Now putting my weight out front on page hoping it helps me to move forward. When I get back to 256.00 I will start using the weight tracker and my page but for now this is good. 03/15/09 - 268.0 03/22/09 - 265.0 Yeaaaaa. 03/29/09 - 264.0 yes slow and steady. 04/13/09 - 263.0 going to do it. 04/19/09 - 262.0 I wish it was more but better to 1 lb less than 1 lb more 04/26/09 - missed - had a bad weekend of eating. (didn't weight)

My goal is to take this step by step. So three things I want to accomplish by the end of the year: 1. work out 6 ds/per wk, eat out maybe once or none per wk, and get 7.5 to 8 hours of sleep. Good luck and blessings to me :).

Cooking my own foods, controling my portions, and working out.
