Well, today is day one of this first go around. Nothing too exciting, except for the fact that I’ve let most of the people know about this site (and why I only have 13 votes so far is a mystery to me). In any case, come Friday, I’ll be ready to contact the ‘winner’ and let them know what I’m up to.

Also, I don’t want folks to think that I chose this first period of Nov. 1 to Jan. 1 mistakenly. I realize that it’s pretty much the time when most Americans add to their waistline…all the reason this becomes more of a challenge. Though, I would like to point out that part of the time frame in which I lost 30 lbs last year covered the Holidays as well.

I can do it again.
