Count me in Y'all! I need a little motivator right now. Man, I've been considering that BodyBugg myself. I just don't have the funds right now. Besides, I'm still big enough to where I don't really need it that bad. I'm sure that day will come though!

I haven't lost any weight in a week or so (thanks to TOM). I'm hoping for some big changes soon!

Might be a bit skewed as I finally got around to purchasing a new scale (hopefully accurate). It says i've lost weight, so i'll go by it.
Actually, had fill on monday, so its near what dr.'s scale was, and since its been a couple of days, I think its accurate.

I haven't lost even 1 pound!! Hopefully that will change after my surgery on 6/18 and I'll still have time to meet my goal!
