Ela ...yes...I too need to jump on this LC Red Wagon...have always hated January because of all the mandatory celebrations wish I had been born in July.. also mandatory to have all the trimmings ie (cake and ice cream) as it is a family thingy especially with the cutey patuties...know I have put on weight since Christmas (once I got back on my feet, I had to sample all the goodies Mom and everyone seemed to think I needed and missed out on at Christmas and of course I willingly obliged ) but will seriously jump on board after the festivities are over...want to make this year the big one that I finally quit fooling around and reach goal weight ...this thread seems to be where it's at and where I will find all the help I need achieving that objective ...B
