Oh I’ll have to check this out…..I just joined Weight Watchers on line and my best friend who lives 3 hours away, has joined as well. We are buddying up and being supportive to each other, sharing recipes and ideas over the emails. Congrats on your weight loss. I have a goal of 30 lbs. to shed before next March – knee surgery. Love your knitting as well.

This is very cool–I know many people who will get a lot out of this, and I’ve forwarded it on to them. It’s interesting to start assessing one’s progress on resolutions in February, but it’s about time I did so–I didn’t have any fitness goals, but I’m doing badly on some of them (going to bed at a decent hour). I did get a doctor’s appointment and feel good about taking care of that, at the very least! It’s nice to be reminded–and to publicly state–that i need to reinvest my energy into keeping those resolutions.

I met a woman today who resolved to eat out MORE! she and I are going to be friends, now, eating our way around the city

Thanks for sharing this great resource. I had just found calorie-counter which isn’t bad, but it’s not as good.

Health/weight wasn’t a NY resolution, but I had a healing crisis over the holidays that got me back on track as far as eating healthfully and I’m trying to keep up the momentum.

Best to you while you continue your journey – you’re an inspiration.

Dana: Poseymom created a TEAM, which can have unlimited number of people. In fact, there are already 15 people signed up under the Losin’ Knit team.

Since only 4 people can be in a group, I’ve created Losin’ Knit 2–great idea and would love for people to join me.

Where I am–I’m a mom of two, working on getting back into general health after having baby E six months ago. I’m on day 18 of a 21-day “exercise every day” challenge. Would love some partners. I’m a running/yoga/swimming/walking kind of person.

Thanks for mentioning this website and (in one of your older posts) the cute pink heart rate monitor. The integrated calorie counter was something I missed with my old (black) heart rate monitor and it was an good excuse to buy myself this one – a pink one.

When you are looking for motivation I like the website of Janice Taylor (Our Lady of Weight Loss). She does have a free newsletter which is called KITT (Kick in the Tush). It helped me a lot to get back on track. Her website and newsletter is not about recommanding a certain diet. She is more into making weight loss an art project, make it fun…that was something that made me laugh and finally got me back on track.

You can do it Lolly! I’m so impressed by your resolve and positivity! And I love the reference to the Tao Te Ching.

I’m going to hop right over and check out that link. I have not stuck to my goals. Perhaps I will find inspiration from you. Thanks for the link, and the nudge to get motivated!
