Welcome to the Gone for Good Club

The members of this "club" are like-minded people who want to challenge each other to keep working toward our goal of weight loss and keeping it off! We have no illusions of the band being a miracle cure, nor do we believe that we will achieve our goals without working for them. We understand that if we continue the lifestyle and eating habits that got us fat in the first place, we will not achieve our goals. We come together in order to strengthen our determination by sharing our dreams, our struggles, and our victories with one another.

Everyone is welcome to join the club - banded, pre-banded, no band - all are welcome to join at any time. To join, please post a brief introduction of yourself and list any information you want posted on the main page. See the list of members below to get an idea of what info you can post. The only requirement for joining the club is a commitment to your own success in your weight loss journey, and the ability to say NO to Girl Scout cookies! (club joke *winks*)

Wednesdays are weigh-in days for those who wish to have us update your progress on this page. Please post a brief note on Wednesdays in the following format: C 265 (-42 lbs total, -3 this week)

We encourage everyone to get to know one another while sharing tips, support, struggles, and encouragement... and a kick in the rear when needed! *grin*

This is not a contest, there is no deadline, and everyone is a winner by being a "loser"!

Way to go mary!!! I am so happy to see that your scale is moving!! :eek:

My dh constantly tells me that When you move the body, you move the scale. He is very right!

Come on everybody (you too pnut and dawg...i know that gym membership is just growing mold) lets move are bodies and move those scales!!!

:cheer2: :banana :cheer2: :banana :cheer2: :banana :cheer2: :banana :cheer2: :banana

89 pounds!? Mary that's wonderful! Go Mary Go!

Half way there Lianna! All you have to do now is do what you've already done - again! hehe

Youre right Funny, its growing mold! LOL! We are working on that though. :eek:

I'm going to update everyone's stats now. So pardon me if I'm quiet for a few minutes.

Ok...I want to share my morning. I woke up this morning dreading today. My mom is flying in. She will be here a week. I love her, but this is stressfull when she is here sometimes. She is supposed to be here at 9am, and i know the house is not nearly as clean as I would like it to be. Plus I still haven't washed the sheets for her bed yet.

So I get a call from her at 6:30. Her plane has been delayed, she is in Texas and won't arrive till noon. Ok. Cool! Thanks God. I need those extra hours. Now I don't feel insane.

I get on the scale today and I lost a pound and a half yesterday. Sweet! Bigger smile now. This really is working.

I go to get dressed. I put on my yoga pants and something is wrong. I washed them but.... they aren't stetched tight around my thighs! My butt and tummy, hell yes. But they are actually baggy in the thighs!! wow. Ok. Bigger smile. I grab my bottle of water, throw my hair in a ponytail and head downstairs for some tea with rob.

I walk up to the table, give him a kiss and he stops me, pushes me back, and says "wow...those pants are getting loose on you." I throw my arms around him and give him a VERY passionate kiss. LOL But honestly I think I would kiss anyone like that if they paid me that compliment. LOL

So I went to the gym and just worked my ass off this morning. I worked really hard. Came home, showered, and found that Rob did my mom's sheets and made her bed while i was at the gym.

Today will be a great day. I think I am coming out of my depression. woohoo!!!

goodmorning guys.....

FINALLY....I have FINALLY dropped a pound!!!! I have been maintaining 210 for about a month, I need a fill, but no money right now to go and get one, fixing to move in a couple of weeks....sooooo....

Great Job, everyone.....keep up the good work Telly.......

C 209 (-87lbs total -1lb for the week)

He is such a stud. LOL (notice he had to sit in the pink girly chair. That made him less happy that day at the beach. But it made me giggle)
