Preview of Teresa's latest edition: "Poems Suitable for Losing Near"

Okay, for starters, here are a few motivational words to inspire you on your journey:
"Lose some weight
Reduce emissions
Then your future
you can envision"
Please people, lets help out the enviornment here! We need to do our part and lose some weight and maybe put less toxins into the air!! I know I would sure appreciate it! Ok, well we've got some good progress to report and some of us now feeling sufficently guilty so we are going to get on that. I know a lot of people who have...

Go Ryan!

Ok, so I'm sorry I didn't post last week, I'm a little busy and my computer is broken. I feel bad though cause Ryan actually gave me an update. Well, I'm doing horribly but hopefully soon will get on track. I did get accepted to graduate school in case any one wants to know. I will be doing an online program through Boston University!! Well...enough about me. I heard that:
Craig lost 5 pounds
Ryan lost 9 pounds!!
Aaron has lost 20something pounds
Jeana I think in the teens somewhere??
Wow, I guess I'm not very good at this! I did find out that the reason most of you don't update me is because you are not doing so well..that's me also. Let me know if anything good happens and umm..keep workin at it!

Week 2??

Well, I did not get to many updates this week so I don't have a lot to post but I will put up those who did inform me! Don't quite yet you guys, it's only mid January!! I know I have struggled but it's like a fight every day!! You can do it though!!! Okay, here it is:

Eric lost 3 pounds
Gretch lost 2 pounds
Teresa lost .6pounds (okay, that's less than one but it's still something!)

No body else really talks to me, if you need my email address, which may be helpful, refer back to my first post. We all want to know how you are doing. If you have updates on anyone else, also let me know! Thanks.

The First Week

Well, I only got updates from a few and now I'm trying to remember what they were. Don't forget to keep me updated and I will keep everyone else updated as well. Ok, so far, the first week went like this:
Eric: still workin at it
Gretchen: Still workin
Mom: lost 2.8 pounds
Dad: lost 5 pounds
Teresa: lost 2 pounds
Aaron: lost 8.5 pounds
Jeana: lost 5.5

Aaron and Jeana are having success using the wieght watchers program, talk to them if you want any more info about that. They also have tickers that keep track of their wieght lost so I will post links to their accounts so that you can keep track. Jeana's is:

If you would like info on how to set up a ticker you may leave me a comment on this blog here and I will post that later. You may also leave comments just for the heck of it so that I know that you are checking this and I am not just wasting my time here at the library!! Thank you. Have a great week 2!
