Today I am starting this in hopes that this keeps me motivated to take off 40 lbs. I have many things coming up in my life this year and hope I can look and feel better for them. 1st off my first grandchild is coming in February. I want to have the energy for him. 2nd. I am going on a cruise in March, hope to look a little better by then and be able to keep it off while I'm gone, 3rd. I am moving back home to Iowa, hoping being around friends and family I will be more motivated and happier, 4th its my 35th class reunion in August, would love to look good for this, last but not least it's my 30th wedding Anniversary November 9th, I would love to be down my 40lbs by then. Would like to renew our wedding vows on the beach in Maui. Gotta look good for that!!!

Sign in to CommentHere we go Suzanne R. I am ready!! So glad to have someone to share this months journey with that is similar to my own. I am 52 so we are also close in age. Congrats on the new grandbaby! It is so exciting! Just bought and exercise bike and elyptical off craigslist, already had a treadmill not that it got used that often. Excited to start having more energy, and feel better about myself. Haven't heard of Ester Hicks I will have to check it out. I do listen to a few positive thinking audio books though. The Power by Rhonda Byrne and Feeling is the Secret by Neville Goddard. They help. Wish you the best! : )
Rock on, Shirley P!! You're my inspiration and I'll be yours this month because I'm in a similar "boat" with you ... heading on a cruise to the Galapagos Islands in March, 50th birthday coming in April (yikes), first grandbaby coming in May (from my step-son and daughter-in-law) and a long-time goal to get back under 150. I have 40 lbs to lose too!! It wasn't that long ago that I was there too. How did this happen, right? So, Shirley P ... let's DO this!!! I'm also listening to some Ester Hicks Youtube videos these days and it's changing my life. Hoping this first attempt at DietBet will help me too. ;-)

What an exciting year you have coming up! Congratulations on all of the changes and celebrations! :) Nothing better than having something to be working towards to keep you motivated! And I definitely think that being around friends and family is helpful - good to have people to lift you up if you're having a bad day or encourage you to continue when you're having a good one!
