Websites that help us lose weight and track our progress

January 20th, 2007

I found this great post listing all sorts of websites that can help us lose weight by providing nifty graphs and extra accountability. Does anyone use any of these or are there any other tools that I’m missing?

I’m thinking of signing up for Gimme20 account and a traineo account.

Anything that helps right?

Can losing weight really be that easy?

January 16th, 2007

Researchers in London have released results that say they have a chewing gum that helps you lose weight. I would chew gum non-stop if that was the case.

Anyone who has tried to lose weight knows how hard it is and i think 99% of us would try some gum if it would actually work. I know there is no miracle pill but man… I wish there was.

Happy New Year Fat Girl Friends

January 12th, 2007

So far my new year has been incredibly BUSY! The holidays were actually pretty tame at my house which was pretty nice. The kids were out of school so we got some good quality time in there and we played a ton of video games to include the great fat burner, Dance Dance Revolution. We did some travelling durin this time and I also worked a ton! I had some work for clients as well as personal projects I’ve been working on. I had a deadline for something for today which I have met so now I get to relax, sign back online and catch up on everyone’s lives!

I’ve never been someone who makes resolutions, but I do like the idea of a clean break and starting fresh. We all should have that once in a while, don’t you think? I have plenty of things I would like to accomplish this year and instead of making resolutions, I like to make goals. On the personal front I would like to run more and participate in more organized running events. There is a monthly beer run here in town where people run a 10k and then everyone gets drunk. Sounds like a party to me :D . I don’t want to set any weight loss number goals but instead I just want to keep losing weight… even if its just a couple pounds a month. Progress is progress and I will take it! In april I will have a complete physical done and I’ll get to check the status of the PCOS. It will be neat to compare the results to the results from last year.

Time to go catch up on all of your blogs now :)
