I plan to lose 12 pounds by Christmas 2007

Ahh Summer....! Warm, sunny, beer, bar-b-queues...more beer...


Uh oh! Anyone else slip off the wagon over the summer?

I know I did, and now it's time to get back on track in a serious way. Not sure exactly how much "extra" I put on over the last few months - definitely some because my pants are a bit tighter than I remembered them being... But not too too bad since I still tried for the most part to be conscious of choosing low gi options.

But September is upon us, and my wife and I have committed to going back on a low gi eating plan in a serious way. 12 pounds of weight loss should be achievable. Just gotta get past that Thanksgiving hump...

Good luck to everyone in your quest for a healthier lifestyle, and thanks for participating in our little contest - hopefully it will one day develop into a vibrant support group for us all.
