Curves for me is 29 a month

[JennyD]

OK - I took the first step! I signed up at Quick Weight Loss Center. They are a southern thing, I think. We didn't have them in NJ. I know someone who did really well on their plan a few years ago and has kept it off. I figure it can't hurt to try. It's one of the few I have not tried yet. And it's my last attempt. If this does not work, I am having the lap band put in.

I don't know how, but they GUARANTEE that I will lose 100 pounds in 29 weeks. That would be phenomenal if it's true. So let's see what happens....

I think I'm going to use my SheKnows blog as a diet diary. I start Sunday. SuperBlob Sunday.

LOL Stacey no fair!

Jenny - that's got to be hard to see from your POV regarding your mom. DH's dad must be around 400lbs and it just scares the heck out of me to think his life could be cut short for it. My mom has always been the opposite too so, I had to deal with that as a big girl. She's about a size 6 and I've always had that kind of hovering over me as pressure.I even dreaded my visit to CA for that reason...I was just waiting for her to say something about me not losing my baby weight yet. Thank goodness she never did...but I knooowww she wanted to!

I'm determined to lose weight for baby girl, too. I want to live long enough to see her grow old...and take care of me jk well sorta! LOL

Allie ... dont feel bad, I havent made note of my points this year yet. I'm still burnt out from last year! LOL I;m so tired of always having a weight loss plan, kwim?

Jen - hey we can blame our hubbys and the weather! I havent walked for a good while because of the wind and I dont want it in Molly-Fae's face.

My neighbor just started a gym close to us and is encouraging me to join too ... I'm sure I'll check it out sooner or later. Being sick, I have zero motivation for that right now! I would love something like Curves where you go and do it and wham you're done. I need child care though I really gotta research more!

Ok ... the Super Bowl is over and regardless of your team being in it or not, people party for the SB! So ... how did you do?? Munchie wise that is! I ate a lot of chips! I rarely eat chips and today I had Utz ruffle chips with onion dip ....I couldn't resist and then I couldn't stop LOL Oh well, I didnt have any of the beer I bought, I stuck to water instead. Then I had some baguette and a salad for dinner....but ohhgawd all those chips Now I'm checking out the local gym online

We just had dinner around the time of the SB. I am really going to call my sister tomorrow after she get off of work to see if she would like to go to the gym. She is pregnant but it would be great for her to "walk" on the treadmill since our sidewalks/roads are all ice. Not safe for preggo mommies to walk on. And I need to do something ASAP!!!

I lost 11 pounds in my first week!!

I still have 112 to go though. Sigh.
