Kimmie - We do them in increments of 5lb so it is something you can easily focus on! So your next increment is here - enjoy!! I couldn't find any free clip art of gardenias on the web, and I don't have any in my own photo library, so I went with the lion   I love it. I haven't been in here for awhile. Too busy trying to make my goal before Christmas. I'm doing really good, if only I could stay away from the eggnog. ITS MY WEAKNESS!!!!!

You can definitely make eggnog without sugar. It's not really good for you still, still about 15g of carbs per glass, but that's still WAY better than the high-sugar variety. Bob likes eggnog so we'll test some recipes out for you!

I'm on my way. Took a step backward and gained a pound during the holiday but I'm back on track with everyone out of the house this week. Thanks Lisa.

That's great news, Kimmie! We all slide up and down a bit, but as long as the general progress is forward, that's what really matters

It's 2009! Does anybody need a new milestone sign? Let me know and I'm happy to make one for you!
The milestone sign should be the number just BELOW your current weight that has either a 5 or 0 as the ending digit. That is, if you weigh 203, your milestone sign is 200. If you weight 256, your milestone sign is 255. You are aiming to lose **5 or less pounds** to get to your milestone - something easy to focus on, something quick to celebrate!
If this confuses you, let us know your current weight and we'll tell you your milestone!

Renewing my offer!!
Whatever your weight is right now, figure out the next "multiple of 5" below you. So if you are 189, you would say 185. If you are 297, you would say 295. Let me know what milestone you need to aim for and I will make you up a sign! If you're bored of your current sign, let me know and I'll make you up a new sign!
The key is to aim for ONLY FIVE POUNDS for now. That makes it a small number that you KNOW you can reach. By taping these signs on your mirror, carrying them in your purse and so on, you get regular encouragement that you can do it!

I keep bouncing between 129 and 135 so I am really stuck on this "130" sign on my wall. Maybe I should do them in a number of colors so at least the sign looks different and catches my eye again.
Is anyone else stuck and would like a fresh sign?

OK to go with the August 5 pound challenge, I'm happy to make up new signs for anyone who wants them! What sign would you like to help encourage you on your way?
Just post here and I'll create one for you!
