Yesterday Sheila Anderson shared "Two Lies And A Truth" with us.  

The reminder is below:  

1) I used to weigh 102 pounds and people told me I needed to gain weight.

2) My Doctor told me that my ideal weight could never be attained because there is no such thing.

3) Most of my friends are fat, and I hang with them so I can feel thin.

Which one is the truth?

The answer is #1.  Sheila had the crowd going yesterday, many were stumped.  Thanks for participating Sheila.

Now for the "What" part of my post.

What motivated me to "drop" 6.2 pounds last week?

The truth is, I was motivated by fear.  Oh, it's not what you're thinking, but it probably should have been.  It wasn't fear of a health issue, it was fear of possibly having to attend the "Lenn Harley Boot Camp for Losers".  I don't think I could keep up with her.  So the lesser of two evils was to get back on track, get serious and stick to it, so that's what I'm doing folks.

Now for the "Who" and I don't mean the singing group.

Who is our "Star Of The Week"?

Since I was the one who lost 6.2 pounds last week, that would be me, but I wanted to share the spotlight with another member of the group.  Some one much more deserving of the title than me.  She has become a non-smoker in the past year and is also working very hard to  Take It Off In The Rainso the honor goes to her this week for "dropping" 4.8 pounds. She's worked much  harder at it then I ever could and I am truly proud of this fantastic young lady and friend.

Please join me in congratulating our "Star Of The Week"

I weighted in yesterday and am only down 2 from Jan 1. BUT... I could be up two... so I'll be happy and move on! YOU ARE THE BOMB! 6 pounds was my goal for the MONTH. You did it in ONE WEEK. If I didn't love you so much, I would petition for a dislike button on this one! HA!! ☺

Roger,  My new lifestyle starts on February 6th. I've got the book, the workout DVD and my shopping list ready to go.  I know I will be posting here much more frequently once i get started.  I have a good 40 lbs to vaporize.

Roger, way to kick that major poundage in the butt!  Keep up the good work!

Amy, you're a rock "star"!  You continue to inspire us all here in this group!

I dropped 1.4 this last week, and was feeling pretty good about that until I read this post!  Actually, I love it, it will inspire me to do even better next week!  :)

Last week I was such an ass about not wanting to weigh in because I had gained so much weight and was discouraged, so I didn't think I was deserving of any star for doing what I should have been doing since I formed this group.  I weigh more now than when we began, so that's nothing to get all excited about and it certainly doesn't deserve accolades.

Amy on the other hand has worked hard to be a non-smoker in addition to taking off the extra pounds that she put on because of the struggle with smoking, so I thought she was much more deserving of the gold star than me.

As for the rest of you that "dropped" weight last week, kudos to you!


We're all in this together and I think it's great how we can all support each other.  The group isn't growing quite as rapidly as it did in the beginning, but it's great to see some new faces and people who are comfortable enough to share their stories with us.

 

Any time there is no "gain", you are a star as far as I'm concerned.

 

Sheila was a very cool Featured Guest.  She pretty much had most of you stumped, which makes this game of "Two Lies And A Truth" that much more fun.  Thank you Sheila.

 

Remember, you can submit "Two Lies And A Truth" to me at any time.  Just e-mail them to me by clicking on the link below.  Make sure you let me know which of the three is the TRUTH so I can post it in my Wednesday post along with the "Star Of The Week".


Thanks to All!

Woohoo! Congrats Amy, I can relate to the non-smoking status, quit 8 years ago! Best decision I could have made for overall health. Good choice Roger!

Great job on the weightloss.  I will hopefully get a handle on my schedule enough to join you on this journey this year.  I am looking to drop 90 lbs.

Good job Amy diets never did work for me and I had the gastric bypass.  Dropped 90 pounds in 10 months and I've been able to keep it off.  I congratulate each of you who can do it the old fashioned way my hats off to you
