ROLL CALL (with sign up info) 12/30/03

Good Morning Beach goers!  Please read this...  I've got a few things going and want to make sure I get everyone in on everything they want to be involved with.  For roll call state your name AND your ivillage id (easier for me to copy/paste if it's in the post itself), then let us know what phase you are in & how long on the beach.  Then state which things I can sign you up for.


#1 - - Board Pride!  (A challenge)


Let's show ivillage how well south beach works...  Look at these stats http://www.ivillage.com/diet/boards/  (it shows how many lbs other boards have lost, how far they have walked, etc. in November).  I want us to show ivillage how wonderful & easy the beach is.  If you sign up for this challenge, I ask you to measure and weight yourselves Jan 1st....  you can keep these numbers to yourself (just save them where you can easily access them).  On the last day of each month I will post a Monthly results type thread, and ask you all to share your progress with us (how many lbs lost, and how many inches).   so we can proudly display our board's progress.

 

What do you say?  Who is in?  If in, measure your chest, waist, upper arms, hips & thighs... and diaphram (that spot right under your boobs).  Just record those stats somewhere (in email you send to yourself, or a document), and also your weight.

 

#2 - Board Buddies

OLDIES: I need lots more Experienced members to buddy up with newbies (our membership here will soon be EXPLODING!).  Please sign up if you can offer support to a new member.  You just need to have been on the beach for at least 2 weeks (which means you are starting phase II).  You can buddy up with more than one member (I plan to have 4 buddies) - PLEASE let me know how many I can pair you up with!!  You can email with them or just look for their posts here and offer support.  PLEASE sign up!  I have individual sign ups in each phase's folders....  Please tell us about yourself there, and browse the phase I sign ups.  If there is someone you are especially interested in being paired with email me (include your & your buddy's name AND ivillage id).  Otherwise I will start pairing up on my own.

 

Newbies: Please tell us about yourselves in the Buddy sign up in the Phase I folder.  Then browse the other folder sign ups and see if there is anyone you think you might want, otherwise I will just pair you up with a friendly beacher.

Thanks Susan and Catherine! It's good to be back! DH is a little less enthusiastic, but he'll come around soon! Catching up on the posts today inspired me to get moving, so my boys took me for a 50 minute walk. (They rode bikes, I walked briskly to keep up) I felt so good when I got back I washed & detailed my car! My promise to myself now is to keep up with the walking. I love it, but seem to find excuses not to go more often! I read someone's post about charting progress "walking off the pounds" by recording how many miles she walks....that might be a good idea for me!

Catherine, thanks for remembering my nursing program! You're too good! It looks like you're also into designing and organizing....I'll have to check out the other boards!

You ladies are wonderful! Thanks for supporting us all!

Suzy (suzypenguin) from Nebraska here. I lost the weight I wanted to last year, but ate too much bad stuff over the holidays, so I'm back on P1 today for a week or maybe two, then back on P3 for maintenance. Feel free to sign me up for everything. I will start with one or two buddies...I'm new to this. :-) I just love this board!!

Happy New Year!

Suzy

Hi!! I'm Kat....katindyus. I'm a stay-at-home mom with 3 kids who keep me running 10, 9, and 3. With last kiddo I had gestational diabetes and have been watching sugar intake since that time. My weight and exercise motivation have fluctuated greatly since that time and would love to take some control in 2004. My buddy Susan will keep me motivated--she's so good at that--and I have a local buddy in Teri (tmaquilter)....so if I misbehave she's in driving distance and will come kick my franny. I will be starting when the kids are back in school-- and the honeybaked ham is out of the house--Monday Jan. 5th. Will post start numbers on Monday and try not to be too out of hand till then.

Hi all! I'm Karen and have been on the beach since 9/30. I truly love it! I am interested in the challenge and will keep the measurement/weight records - however, since I am in P3, I have already seen more loss than I will going forward. But, I will do what I can for 'the cause'. Yes, I would love to have a buddy. I will look around in the phases, as susan suggests. Good luck to all!
