THANK YOU and a SAD FAREWELL

Dear BL friends~

I just wanted to say before we all go our own ways how much this has meant to me. After all was said and done last night and I was quietly at home I realized how much of a sense of loss I feel (no pun intended). I appreciate with all sincerity the HARD work you have all put in and how much you have helped me along the way. THANK YOU! I hope that you will all know that as you continue to work towards and reach your goals that I will be here cheering you on and working towards my goals as well. So, a new day begins and as it does I greet my unlikely best friend, the treadmill, and looked for the joy in the next 12 weeks.

Keep on keepin on~ Julie D.

Week 10 winner?

Hey everyone!  It is time to let me know how you did with the weekly challenge.  Were you able to get rid of some of those nagging bad habits?  I hope you all did better than I did.  Get me your points and I will announce the winner! Good luck this week!

Week 9-10 Challenge, Host: Amy L.

We all have bad habits that got us into the whole "wanna lose weight" point in our lives.  I, for example, while on bedrest with the twins picked up a habit of eating while reading, eating while watching movies, eating while on the computer and pretty much eating any time my hands were not busy.  (Bedrest is really, really boring).  Unfortunately those habits have stayed with me.  Some of you have already shed some of your bad habits but I am sure you can find another one.  So this weeks challenge is to replace a bad habit with a good one.  One of the first steps to that is accountability.  Confess your bad habit to someone or hear on this blog as a comment, and then state what you are going to replace that bad habit with.  I have a few hobbies I would like to replace my bad habbits with.  Maybe I should scrapbook while watching a movie, or maybe when I feel a craving to eat while reading or on the computer, I should drink water or chew gum instead. 

Scoring:  You get one point for posting your bad habit and the good habit you will replace it with or you can tell someone you trust to hold you accountable.  You also get one point for every full day you actually replace that terrible habit with a good one.  I chose this challenge because I need to kick a few more habits that I have.  I hope you all are successful and Happy New Year!!!!
