Ranae, glad to see that you are back. You can count me in though I'm getting a bit frustrated because I am not doing so well with my weight loss. Just can't seem to lose anymore. I have been stuck at the a182 mark go quite some time. I have tried counting calories, different diets, excecise and who knows what else I'll be trying.
I'm in ... didn't gain, but the little I lost I gained back .. so I'm in for 2009!
Barb - Love your eternal optimist attitude and team spirit! You've been a strong community supporter and we appreciate another year with you!
Cheyenne - Very well done and many congratulations; we look forward to your tips and participation.
Me967 - What a thrill it was to see you post and have you join us!!! Many here are struggling with other health issues that make our progress a little slower than normal, but it CAN be done and we'll all work together in 2009. Glad to see your determination and we alternate between swift kicks and many hugs .. ;) (Sometimes it takes both.)
Trudie - You're a steadfast teammate and this is the year we will both realize our goal weights .. your friendship and support has been most helpful and your advice sound. What a calm and knowledgeable voice you are.
35MomofBoys - Welcome; it is a pleasure and honor to have you join us! I, too, stopped exercising and it is going to be a top priority for me this year. Perhaps we can help monitor or exercise trackers. Losing weight can definitely help with higher chances of getting pregnant .. so perhaps your year will end with a new life .. for you and a new little one. A friend of mine in Washington did this last year and is due to deliver soon.
gokuangel - You are one of the cheerleaders here and am so pleased you are seeing the physical changes that come with weight loss. We looking forward to your participation again this year.
lucinda - Welcome and thank you for joining us!!! It is with great anticipation that we enter 2009 ... another year of fun, friendship and weight loss. May even try a 5K with you .. if you think you can teach me.
bet - Plateaus are absolutely no fun and I'm willing to work with you to decipher why you are remaining at the same weight and how to get past it. Lucinda is another one who can help in that area as I've seen her do this with great success. If we need to look at each thing you eat and each activity, I pledge to do so ... you can get beyond that point. Thanks for hanging in there .. and I know the other members of the community will help and support you as well.
ChitChat - 2009 is going to be our banner year and we look forward to your continued involvement and spirit!
Look, everyone, you all make up a wonderful community of friends who are interested in healthier living and supporting each other. Your participation and willingness to share your own struggles and help others is what makes us strong and gives us the support community we are. Thank you for picking up the challenge and agreeing to be here in the new year. Let's make a promise to each other .. through ups and downs .. let's hang in there, be honest and get the help we need when we need it. That is what community is all about.
Please help us enlarge our circle of friends and invite a few others to come join us. All of us can benefit from this and/or know someone who can. Very best wishes .. Dream .. Believe .. Achieve !!!

I am definitely in. Lost 11.2 pounds so far got a lot more to go and need the support. I love this website and forum so a huge thanks to everyone. Here's to a fantastic 2009 filled with many of us reaching goals.
LOL! Ranae....5Ks are easy...you just keep putting one foot in front of the other until you cross the finish line. No sweat! (Well...actually lots of sweat!) It's actually easier for me to finish the 5K when everyone is watching...much harder to do on the treadmill when no one really cares. ; ) Of course....the treadmill training is far more important to be ready...but the masses at the races don't see that preparation portion.
