I'm jumping on the bandwagon.
One of my sisters has started a blog (I"d link you to it but she might kill me) to help hold her accountable while she is on a diet. I think it's a great idea. So if you can bear with me, I think I'll do it too. I'm debating on whether or not to show my weight on my blog, but I think I'm going to do it. Hopefully, in 6 weeks I will have lost 12 pounds and I won't have to blog about my weight anymore. And don't worry, my daily posts won't be about dieting. I'll just include a short paragraph at the end of each day that will somehow - hopefully - hold me accountable.
I"ve been trying to lose ten pounds since Sunshine was born (4 and a half years ago!). But calling it post-pregnancy weight makes me feel better about it. Unfortunately, this ten pounds has become more 14 pounds. I stay on a diet. Actually - that's not true. I am always dieting, but I am always cheating on my diet. So that means that I always feel guilty for eating that Reeses or that York peppermint patty, or those double-fudge brownies.
Anyway, I don't want to scare you away, but heed the warning that I've jumped on the bandwagon!
Wish me luck and have a great day!

I think it's a great idea. I've even heard of internet sites that you can get to send you emails to remind you to work out. Good luck. I know how that feels. A little over a year ago I lost the 15 pounds or so that I had kept on since Jacob. It really is amazing how much better I feel now... I finally feel like myself again. We create such negative energy when we're always inwardly criticizing ourselves for the extra weight, so losing that last little bit as ended all that criticism for me. Whew, what a relief! Best of luck to you -- I'll be thinking about you. And remember... that piece of cake has NOTHING on feeling like you look like yourself again!!
I will only be posting my diet updates on Holley's blog! (nobody knows the name of the blog but the three of us!) LOL
Amanda - THANK YOU for the encouraging words! I needed that! How long did it take you to lose 15 pounds? I need to lose 16. I'm going to post my weight tomorrow! Yikes!
MM - I need the accountability by not being anonymous! How is yours going??
