I did my homework for the day! yeahhh great idea Joy

I'm afraid I'm not doing a good job at being your leader. I'm still doing great at losing weight, but I'm trying to plan a wedding. My fiancee and I our getting married on October 18th and we still have tons to do. I'm so stressing out about the wedding its not even funny.
So, I guess I'm asking for someone else to step up and be the leader. I'm sorry April, I thought I'd have the time to be a great leader, but because I've been stressing out about the wedding and money I don't think I'm good for it anymore.
I'd still like to do the weigh ins, if that's ok with everyone. But I don't think I can be your leader anymore.

Cathy, Will you be my acountabilibuddy?

Your what, what?

its okay Cathy believe me i completely understand..i will take back over until someone else wants to do it..and is able....now that i have my priorities straight i think that i will be alright...and it will be a little easier if someone else is doing the weigh ins....are you sure you want to do the weigh ins?? i mean if you are busy i understand really...i know that there were a few others who volunteered to do it....and they dont seem to have as much going on.....(just let me know what you want to do...)

as long as i have this much help...who needs a "leader" anyhow..? Gosh...yall make being a leader too easy...and i appreciate it...now i can focus on what i need to be focusing on....i dont want any one person to be overwhelmed....we do have to be able to function and enjoy life outside of buddy slim....! anyhow....im going to catch up now on the last few posts...and i have some more messages i need to get out...
and start working on our accountability buddy list...

im excited...there are some amazing things going on here...and its just going to get better!! HEARTBREAKERS ROCK!

Hi I am new to the site and April told me about your group, if you are still accepting members I would love to join. I need to lose weight not only to be healthier but to avoid surgery on my right knee and ankle (old sports injury thats acting up because of my weight). Keep up the great work!

Are you guys still taking on new members? I'm doing soso, but feel the need to join a challenge to keep myself more accountable.

You know, it used to be 'cool' to smoke, but look where that got us. Of course there are those who diet to the point of poor health....so, as with everything else in life....moderation is the key. Thanks for the interesting insight. And it is so good to have you back!

I wrote this in response to one of Rachel's blogs. She was just mentioning how when she gains weight she feels worse about herself. And I did say that I thought even if health wasn't an issue many people would still want to lose weight just to fit in with the popular culture. At least that's what I was trying to say. Thanx for the welcome back. It feels good to be back.
