My friend and I have started food logs in Google Docs and share them with each other, so we're accountable to each other for what we eat. I've put my weight goal in big numbers on the fridge, and some of our pantry cabinets. I've also been spinning every morning at 5:30am and sometimes squeeze in lifting/more cardio after work at night. My friend and I call ourselves Team UberSexy. You are more than welcome to be a satellite member! I find having a buddy really helps. I've also told my boyfriend to try his hardest to encourage me to eat less... he's really been trying to help, but it's hard for him to understand, because he's as skinny as a stick! Another thing.... for the longest time, I was hung up on "numbers" and could never tell my weight amount to anyone... but I told my workout buddy, and she told me her weight, and now we're checking up on each other to see how the numbers are dropping, etc. I think it helps me accept the fact that I need to lose weight by accepting the number and saying it out loud. Anyway, keep up the great work, I think your blog is a great idea and a great way for your friends to share ideas and give input. I've definitely gotten some ideas from your blog! Hope you're well!

This past year I have been trying to lose weight- I was very successful for the most part, but have hit a stand still. I am trying to push through it, and I think it is important to remember that we are trying to change our lifestyles, we aren't on a "diet"! So a few weeks up and down on the scale, I am going to have to live with and move on haha!! :) And love the SlimFast products, by the way! So easy!! xoxox Holly This is my first visit to your blog and I really love it! This past year I have been trying to lose weight- I was very successful for the most part, but have hit a stand still.
