I just set a new minigoal, and it's a major one!

arewethereyet wrote Jan 12, 2008 : Friends, Good weight news to report. I am down 2 pounds this week and have achieved my last mini-goal in the 200s! I just reset the ticker and have placed my next mini-goal at 6 pounds from now... 198. That is a number I haven't seen in 15 years. ... more »

Woo hoo NSV!

Here's a first for me in a long time...

arewethereyet wrote Oct 21, 2007 : I took the weekend off. No walking for me. I've been fighting a horrible headcold since Friday - running a fever and everything - and I decided it wasn't worth it to do the walking this weekend. So I will officially miss my weekly walking goal of 25 ... more »

They say you learn something new every day.

arewethereyet wrote Oct 03, 2007 : And what I learned yesterday was a bit odd, and certainly too much information for many of you to hear. That said, I feel like sharing. Did you know that a thong can actually be too big? I found that out yesterday. I don't normally wear them but i... more »
