HELP! We Need to Meet and a Catchy Title to Our Blog!

Hello everyone.

Welcome to OUR weight loss blog! I have never done a blog that has multiple users like this, so please feel free to offer any ideas, advice etc. I have not been blogging for long, and have only done a family blog so far. (You can visit this blog, if you wish, at
www.thesooner7. blogspot.com).

We would like to see all kinds of people bring a variety of plates to the table! If you can offer advise on physical activities, food, anything that contributes to a healthier us, please feel free to!

Some of us are here to for support in losing weight, while others may be looking for a healthier life style, or want to get in better physical shape, or just want to help out by offering some "wisdom" whichever it may be, you are welcome :)

So, what we need is get to know each other and a cool title for our blog! Please copy and paste the following and fill out and leave under comments. We can then start adding blog authors as people want.

  2. NAME: Dee

    AGE: 45

    WEBSITE: None; can catch me of Facebook or MySpace, though!

    I AM FROM: Tulsa

    WEIGHT LOSS/OTHER PROGRAM I AM ON (if any): Diabetes management plan & Weight Watchers

    ORIGINAL WEIGHT OR HOW MUCH YOU HAVE LOST SO FAR: During '06-'07 I lost 60 lbs. because of being scared by my diabetes diagnosis; in '08 I stalemated and fought 20 of those lbs. off & on all year. Since joining Weight Watchers 7 weeks ago, I have lost 19 lbs.

    CURRENT WEIGHT OR AMOUNT I WANT TO LOSE: 120 lbs.

    GOAL WEIGHT OR I STILL NEED TO LOSE : 101 lbs.

    HEALTH GOALS: To keep off diabetes meds, to stave off having to have my mitral valve replaced as long as possible, & to be able to do what I want to and go where I want to because I am HEALTHY and ACTIVE enough to do so.

    NURSING MOM? 17 years ago! haha

    IDEA FOR BLOG NAME: I am so not good at names!

    MORE ABOUT ME: I am a single mom of one teenage son; have been single for 11 years and enjoy it for the most part, but it is tough. I have gotten back into my Christianity in the past 3 years and have been extremely blessed for returning home to my Father. I have a job I love, and many friends that I have known since I was a youngster. I used to be thin (weren't we all?) until I reached my mid-20's, then I filled out somewhat but was not really "fat" until after I had my son. Depression over my marriage contributed a great deal to my overeating - not an excuse, but by all means a contributer to my becoming an "emotional eater."

    MORE ABOUT ME: I am a wife and a mom to 2 boys. I unfortunately struggle w/my weight..and I hate it. I have to firmly stick w/what is right or I pay for it. I am not one that can eat whatever I want...I wish. It's going to be a long bumpy road. I am trying to just take it 1 day at a time. Some days are better of course. I just have to remember to not give up. If I want the rainbow then I've gotta put up w/the rain=].

  4. This is from Dee. Just wanted to let you all know that I just came from my Weight Watchers meeting and have two bits of news. The first is that in my 4th week they miscalculated my weight loss; it should've been 4.8 not the 4.2 they recorded. Small amount, but I'm working hard to lose it so I want it counted. lol Second bit of news, I lost another 4.6 lbs. this week so my current total is 24.2 lbs. in the past 8 weeks!

    Weight Watchers & God RULE!!!!

  5. My week was great! I weighed in Thursday night & have lost another 2.8 lbs. for a 9 week grand total of 27 lbs.! I got a "medal" for reaching 25 lbs., which look like a heavy duty washer (as in nuts, bolts, washers). I put it on my key chain as a reminder of what I've done thus far. I have to tell you all, I give the glory to God for giving me the determination and focus to stay on-track. I went to a company picnic Friday night, & one of my co-workers didn't recognize me! She works at a different location & only sees me every 3-4 months. It was GREAT to know the loss is showing to other people. I also wore a pair of jeans to work last Friday that I have not been able to get into for two years!

  6. Erin, I tried to take the poll, but the names weren't visible. The circles to PICK a name were, but not the names. ?????
