Hi Yall,

My Name is Audrey and I am fairly new here on calorie count but I am going to hopefully start out with a bang.I actually lost about 3 pounds without trying much in December.  I have a 8 month old son and am finally starting to lose some of the baby fat.  My heaviest weight was 228.5 the day I gave birth to my son.  I lost about 12 pounds the firsts few days after giving birth and it has taken almost 8 more months to lose another 10 pounds or so but not really trying to lose weight just eating a little healthier.  Just bought a treadmill yesterday and it should be delivered sometime on Monday.  The kitchen cupboards are also getting a makeover.

Well, I gained 4 pounds over the Christmas and New Years binging...
NOT surprised.
I ate so much.
But I enjoyed every minute of it! :D

Betzc - Thanks, if I end up going away to the beach again in a few weeks, I may get you to help out then!

Sorry I was late - just got home tonight. New Year's at my Mom's was a disaster, but, boy, did those butter tarts taste great! Don't regret a morsel. Back on track tomorrow.

Lilygirl1970 - Well your weigh-in weight is your start weight so at least the slight gain doesn't effect your overall result for the month!

 So..everyone's start weight is the Jan 1st weigh-in, not the "Start Weight" from above? I'd love that (since I gained), but what about the ones who've lost since they signed up on the 29th? That loss should count for them. They did great! I'm willing to admit I was a pig over New Year's. lol

That's okay, I understand...this way we all start at '0' on Jan first!

Good luck everyone!

Yeah, exactly.
Everyone begins on the 1st and everyone finishes on the 29th.
It's just easier.
Everyone has the same time frame to lose the weight, so at the end it is easier to give the badge to that who has lost the most! :)
