I am coming up on the end of round 1 in my secong transformer. Yes, I joined a transformer in November, just as we are heading into peak holiday madness! Crazy? I don't thing so. Challenging - oh yeah!

As of today I have lost the Thanksgiving weight I gained and I am 2.2 pounds from my round 1 goal with 8 days to go. Not bad for the week after Thanksgiving, a week in which I had 2 huge meals with family and friends preceeded by a wild and crazy weekend with my girlfriends. Can I just say - I LOVE DietBet.

I've been motivated to stay on track and keep going because of this site and the people I've met here. I've been inspired to keep going no matter what becaue of the people here and I really hate to lose money :0)

My message to anyone and everyone is DO NOT QUIT! No matter what, just keep going. If you keep going you WILL reach your goal. It may take you a while but you'll get there. As we head into the second month of the holiday craziness just do the best you can, check out the community on the site for inspiration and above all forgive yourself if you slip up. Don't let a slip become a slide. Enjoy the holidays, your family and friends and what ever you do, don't quit.
