new to buddy slim
I have been a member of another (sort of) similar website but have never been as serious as I am today. I found this website and have decided to restart everything with a clean sweep……fresh start. I have to lose this weight. When I look at myself I am completely disgusted! I am so out of shape and my entire family needs to learn better eating habits. My husband has a major sweet tooth, and so do my step kids and diabetes is coming at my husband and I both from all ends.
I tried the Atkins diet a few years ago and its really not my thing. I have thought about starting weight watchers but first I am just trying the-eat healthier, exercise, and drink lots of water thing……hopefully this will help give me, at least a jump start….ActuallyI think I am going to do the WW deal as well……I think this will help keep me on a strict guideline. I will start the WW counting on Sunday….so I can use the rest of the week to learn a little more about ww.
I only had two 24 oz bottles of water yesterday, my goal for this week is to have three bottles a day. I am starting my goals out small this week and will increase them gradually. My goal for the first two weeks is to exercise at least three days a week, drink lots of h20 and healthier foods.
I have decided to reward myself after each long-term goal met. My long-term goals being pounds lost. My main goal is to lose 50 lbs (of course I want to lose more, but this is my “long-term starting goal”. SO…..here’s the deal…………
- 10lbs lost—–new makeup
- 20lbs lost—–pedicure
- 30lbs lost—–a few new clothing items
OK….so that’s all the rewards I wanna do for now, and hey….I may change it around a lil…who knows. Well, I’m gonna go figure all this buddyslim stuff out since I am completely new to it………however it really is ALOT like myspace so I should catch on okay.

Let me be the first to welcome you to buddyslim! There are some great ppl here. I decided to start my weight loss again yesterday so I came back to this site because it helped to motivate and inspire me. You seem to have a pretty good plan laid out. You can do it!
Welcome. I think you are on the right track.
Hi and welcome to the site. :o)
It’s like listening to myself!! I do the exact same thing (rewards like manicures,pedicures etc)actually I do them anyways whether I lose or not(who am I kidding!!)Best of luck to you I just started this system myself and as a WW veteran let me offer you some advice..Go with your instinct to re-join WW..Accountability is EVERYTHING-even if you ditch the meetings cuz let’s face it they can be pretty BRUTAL! Good luck!
Welcome, I agree with phatcat WW is a great way to go. I lost weight with them before and let life’s little problems get in my way. I am going back to them now. Good luck to you.
thank you for all the words of encouragement..lol i definitely need it. i had actually contemplated whether or not to do the meetings or not and i think i am going to go to the meeting next week…probably.
I do Weight watchers online because of my work schedule. I agree its a wonderful program. Congratulations on making the decision to get healthy!
