Thursday, April 26, 2007 - No Longer Accepting Members for 12 Healthy Weeks

The small support group--12 Healthy Weeks, is no longer accepting new members. We are full up. I even extended it to 3 dozen. In the future I may consider hosting another one and allowing more members, maybe up to 50, that might be too many to make it work though. I'll just have to try this one first and see.

Thanks to everyone for the overwhelming response. I had no idea there were so many of us in the same boat. I'll continue updating my blog as per usual, and keeping everyone updated on my progress (or lack there of if necessary, hopefully not)

For everyone who has been accepted into the group, be sure to register as soon as you can. On Sunday afternoon I will be shutting down all new registrations, so if you aren't registered by then, you won't be able to participate. I would hate to see that happen to anyone, so please, make it a priority.

On the home front, things have smoothed out nicely, it's been a lovely peaceful day. I've caught up with my dishes, enjoyed the sunshine on the deck and done a lot of prep work for my dietary goals. I'll be starting officially on Wednesday next.

Aww, I sure wish I had visited your blog sooner!! I have a 100 lbs to lose to make my ideal weight, but right now I'm aiming at 50. Ugh, if I could just lose 10 I'd feel so good about myself!! If you open up another group, let me know!!

Just wanted to suggest that Dr. A. Weil's book, 8 weeks to optimum health, might fit in well with the idea of a healthy weeks program.
Good luck! I am sure it will help to have a support group.
My first mammogram was also easy and painless, incidentally.

MM, if you have a few free moments, it would be wonderful if you would blog some of the group's brainstorming ideas, suggestions and recipes.

Thank you for all you do.

No fair we can't be there to see how well you are doing and share your hard days and offer some encouragement!

I think you need to re-think this 'private' group idea that disciminates those with less to lose. People who need to lose even 10 pounds are sometimes just as bothered by it as anyone with more to lose, especially smaller people who can't carry it well.

And on a totally selfish note, I'll totaally be going crazy that I don't know how well you are getting on! LOL

Wednesday, May 2, 2007 - weight loss and mamogram

Posted by Anonymous

Good luck on your weight loss efforts. I have over fifty to use and it seems like I always have to lose that same 10-20 when I start because I gain it back. www.sparkpeople.com is a good free site for tracking exercise and calories. Don't sweat the mamogram.
I have had one every year for 10 years and it is just uncomfortable when the machine squashes you for a few seconds. The technicians know that you are uncomfortable and they help make it seem like no big deal the way they fit you in the machine. Good Luck with everything.
