Introduction Text Started using this site after news article I saw Apr 08. First just went on to get recipes and then decided to see what else there was on the site. I've learned alot from the articles, I know more about food than I ever did. I gave up smoking in Sep 07 after about 20 years and put on a few more pounds and then decided enough was enough. Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. unknown June 08 - half way to intermediate goal of losing 60lbs. July 08 - changed goal to 70lbs. Had first setback on first vacation gained 2 lbs. July 08 - I've lost the two I gained on vacation earlier this month and an additional lb. Need to work harder for vacation in Sep. Aug 08 - lost a few more lbs - still working on goal for Sep vacation, have some new clothes I want to get into by then. Sep 08 - lost a few more lbs, not quite where I wanted to be by Sep, but I'm still going on vacation. Oct 08 - vacation was great, but now I'm on a pleateau, got to get the scales moving down. Nov 08 - the holidays are recking havic on going down on the scales. Dec 08 - Gained 10 lb over the holiday - just another excuse I need to avoid in 2009!
