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"!

Hi Heather,

Thank you, I need lots of support, I have been pigging out everyday for the last 2 weeks.

Here is some info on me......:faint:

H(283) S (278) C(223)

I am from NY, married, for the third time.....lol.....Life is good.

I am a Teacher Asst. in Middle school......I run the I.S.S. (In School Suspension Room.) Have had the same job for 25 years......and I am crazy, to still be there....lol.

I don't know where to get the score card.....

Am I doing ok with all the rest of the stuff here?

Need more info?

Thanks for letting me join, I hope this will motivate me some.

LMAO ...lol p'nut that was funny..fortunatly i don't like cheetos to much...now doritos....bah, i just started the challenge and im already crap..i work to damn much....i dont have many great expecations for this month but I'm going to keep track of everything any way, and next month when things are back to normal at work (right now I'm working from 8am to 10pm with about 2 hours in between for lunch) ill be shooting for that perfect score card (looks around to telly and a few others) tee hee... :heh:

Jorget - to get a score card, highlight the blank one on page 1, and then right click your mouse and select copy, then create a new message and right click your mouse inside the message and select paste...then volia! you have your own score card!

hi all-i have been gone for over quite a while...no excuse except my life got extremely busy. i am still plugging along with my weight loss...ninteen lbs to onederland...i can not wait!!

my eating habits are still fairly good....i had a house full of people over memorial day....everyone noticed the way i ate.....like a normal person instead of eating every thing in site...i have come a long way.

i promise to check in more often...how is everyone else doing? any challanges coming along?

P'nut-

you could always divvy up GFG club between "active members" and "dormant members." that way you're not erasing them, but we also have a concise list of who's participating.

also - i added pics to my scorecard on page 1. check it out and tell me how hot i look

Hi,

So TellyMelly totally motivated me today, ate well, drank Water, came home, got changed for gym. Took son to basketball practice, got on freeway, got off ramp (on way to gym) at stop light that just changd friom yellow to red...talking to my sister (who's ratass she just got cheating with a skank yesterda) in middle of consoling her, checking my eyebrows out in mirror (that i just waxed) and I saw this big truck barrelling into me and I thought, wow, is he gonna stop??? then BLAMMMMM I hear crunch, glass breaking and i'm jerked forward...the mofo slammed into me!!!! I checked to see if I could drive my car, pulled off freeway and jumped out (I should have been like OHHH my back)lol then saw my back end and lights all smashed, called 911, police came, made report, drove home and now my back is KILLING me! Yes, I will go to doctor tomorrow, need to get a rent-a-car, yadayadda, but damn, I'm sorry y'all I will have to do photos tomorrow...at least I did well on diet today:p....

BeacheeGirl -- OMG I'm so sorry to hear about the accident.

FIRST THING tomorrow morning - CALL your Insurance company back - let them know you are hurt -- most of the time they will then cover any and all expenses and then turn around and hit up the insurance of the guy who hit you - but you MUST call them before heading to the hospital or doctor! Best wishes on a fast recovery!

Well I went ahead and took pix anyway since I have my hubby here, car-accident,smar-accident, lol! Yes my back hurts but oh, well, here it goes, me fatty in a bathingsuit....

I look so much worse then I think! LMAO

Wow, you are more beautiful than you thought Alysha. We are our own worst critics. Gorgeous even!

Oh gosh, I almost forgot! I'm sooo sorry girl. I feel bad that you got hit. I was hit the same exact way about 1 year ago and now it's finally gonna settle. 7k pfffft, that's it! I was at a stop light sitting there and a Mack truck (city dump truck) comes down the hill about 50 mph and full of dirt and it's soo heavy it can't break and I hear the breaks and see the smoke and looked in my rear and bam, in the back of my brand spanking new Toyota 4Runner. Just muscle pain and 3 months of therapy but all is well.

Pfunkem, I just saw your updated photos! omG! You lost alot and I see a major major difference. Keep it up soldier! Lookin pretty sweet there suga!

Telly - YOU are gorgous, you are exotic and fierce and you could stop losing NOW and still be the bomb. But, thank you for the boost, but I really know I look horribly ugly (in my perspective), don't need an ego boost but putting those pix up really made me face the FACTS! Can't wait for lap surgery and to maybe, just maybe, have an after photo a gorgeous as all you sexy ladies!

Pictures Taken June 4, 2006

June 29, 2006

Ok, now that I'm blushing, I'm gonna go take a shower All of the women in this club are soo beautiful.

Dang Beechee! I've heard of excuses for getting out of exercising, but that one takes the cake! LOL! I'm glad you're ok. Sincerely.

I was rear-ended by a drunk driver in a truck a few years ago when I was on vacation. When I finally came to my senses and got out, the guy was trying to put HIS license plate on MY car, and my plates were still on! Anyway, I told the police that I wasn't hurt and went on with my vacation. My jaws starting hurting so bad that night, but eased off within a day or so. I came home a few days later and my shoulder was killing me so I went to the ER and told them about the accident. I ended up in therapy for my shoulder, still have problems with my jaws, AND I got a nice settlement from the drunk cowboy. So, I dont think you need to worry about not reporting it right away, but you should start seeing a Dr asap for your own health.

By the way.. I LOVE your cheeks!
