I will start by saying that I am down 17 pounds. It’s the most weight I have lost on any kind of a diet. It has been hard, but so worth it. I have not been to Renew for a while, because of conflicts with my work schedule. I can say that they set me on the right path and I am working to continue to lose weight.

Last week was so hard. There are so many pre-Thanksgiving activities and sometimes it is so hard to say no to the delicious food that is offered. I have decided to continue with the workout and the diet, until Wednesday. I will enjoy my Thanksgiving meal and the leftovers on the next day. On Saturday, I will go back to my current routine. One month left!!!

Still going to the gym. Trying to go every other day. I am up to forty minutes on the elliptical machine. It’s tough, but I am trying!! I will weigh myself on Friday to see how well I am doing.

Thanks to my “sister” Leslyn for your comments! You have been so supportive through all of this! Thank you again for the Jillian DVD!

I just got home from the gym. I was stuck at a 13 pound loss and I decided to get moving even more. I started back at the gym last week. I lost just one pound but I am sure if I keep it up, I will at least get within reach of my goal by December.

I know I have not done as good as the other ladies and I could just give up, but I will not. I know that there are a lot of you out there, that like me, you sometimes feel like giving up on losing weight. Keep going! It is the hardest thing in the world, but one day you will reach your goal!
