I started to clean out my closet - made good progress yesterday

Wow, You are doing awesome. I have a similar goal as well. The habits you set now will go a long way to helping you take off the weight and keep it off. Remember to enjoy the process, you are important and deserve to feel great. Keep us posted. Bill

thanks Bill ;0)

 Right there with ya!!

 How's it going?  Just checking in to see how your day went and how you're coming along with your goal.  Will check back.  

it's going great - I've been doing really well on my eating and working out.  I started weights today and feel pretty good about it.

2 1/2 weeks in and I am down 8 lbs so far -  I think the last 10 is going to be hard but I'm in it for the long haul.

 Oh, you are good - already adding in the weights.  I need to start doing that too.  8lbs in 21/2 weeks T??  That's fantastic!  I'm so excited for you and looking forward to more updates.  

 Hey, I came to check in for an update.  How's it going today?  Hope you're having a great day!!  Happy to hear you're in it for the long haul.  Having a healthy lifestyle is a whole other mindset than just dieting.  Will check back again soon.

hey Andrea - thanks for asking - I am doing great at not eating items I shouldn't and avoiding bread - that's a biggie for me.  Went out with the girls last night and had white rice - just a bit - first time since Jan 1st.  Not going to make a habit of it but I was suprized that I didn't even want it after a few bitees!  I haven't weighed myself yet but will on Monday.  Since I started weights I am not looking for a big loss but hopefully I haven't went up...

 That's awesome Tammy.... little success all add up, but this one seems to be a big one.  One of the ladies supporting me on my page just wrote about how our cravings subside as time passes - maybe it just takes 21 Days??  Love reading your updates.  Thanks so much for sharing and for checking in on my page too.  Monday is my weigh in day too, but the weekends are always more challenging for me, so I'm thinking I might change my weigh in days to Thursday once this challenge is complete.  Talk more soon.  Keep up the great work.

 Hi Tammy, how's your weekend going?  Gearing up for a new week?  Headed into the home stretch with this process too.  Have you invited anyone else here to support your goals?  I'm getting a lot of positive feedback from my friends who are enjoying the site.  I'll send a note to Jacqueline and Sandra K to come check out your goals too.  Do we share any other contacts?  Let me know.

hey Andrea - thanks ;0)  This weekend was hard... had a big breakfast here for the hockey team and someone brought an amazing hashbrown/sour cream/mushroom soup mixture to live for!! oh my.... fell off the wagon hard - hopefully it won't hurt too much for tomorrows weigh-in... guess the good thing is we can always start fresh tomorrow.

 Hey Tammy, checking in to see your progress.  Yes, I agree... this weekend was a challenge.  I would have fallen off the wagon with those choices too FOR SURE.  No worries though - it's a new week and a fresh page.  You'll be great.  I propose we change our weigh in day from Monday to Thursday.  What do you say??  That way, we've got the benefit of three days to recover from any wagon falling off of we may have done on the weekend and get the best result!  Let me know if you're in.

sounds good ;0)  Sadly I still have to weigh in on Monday's for a challenge I have going with some friends but will do Thursday also - it will be a good 'eye opener' for me - how far did I fall on the weekend....

ah, I see.  Well, that's probably a good thing... keeps you on track better, I'm sure.  Are you using a trainer?

 Good Morning Tammy.  I hope you're having a great day.  I have no doubt that it started better than mine.  Wishing you a great day today and will check back for your update.  All the best.  

nope not using a trainer - just Gillian Michaels ;0)

 Ah, I hear good stuff about Gillian.  Haven't tried her out yet though.  Wishing you a great weekend.  Sorry I missed yesterday.  This flu's killing me.  

 Hey Tammy, I was just checking if you'd let us know how your weigh in went this morning.  How's it going?  Still leading?  Let us know as we're wrapping up the challenge today!

Cleaned out my closet totally today - between my husband and I we hauled out 9 full bags!!  Feels so great!

Hi Tammy! Hope you've been making progress, on this goal and any others you've been working on. 2011 has flown by and it's nearly that time of year again ... we're madly planning the next 21-Day Challenge.

Hope you have lots of good stories to share, your participation was so strong last time around. Start thinking of a new goal or refocus on one you've already set, because we have some really terrific surprises for our top collaborators. Holidays are creeping up on us now, wishing you and your family a wonderful few months ahead.
