We Have a Winner!

Sorry it's taken me so long, I just moved! I'm all moved in now though. So on with the highly official random name picking.

It's hard to read but it's Ikikinalala, who submitted a recipe for beetroot broth! I can't wait to try several of the recipes recommended. Now that I have my own kitchen I'll be doing a lot more cooking. :)

Ikikinalala please email me your address and I will send the Noro out to you ASAP. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Motivation!

I found this cool thing called My Virtual Model at That One Blonde Girl. This is what I look now, and what I'll look at my goal weight. What I look like now is pretty accurate!

Tomorrow is a new day!

So I tried to start my diet plan this week, but fell off the wagon last night (why did I have chocolate covered pretzals in the house, why!!!!!) But tomorrow is another day. I plan on either going cycling with Megan or going to "Body Attack" at the gym.

I will be having to leave my gym soon, or transfer locations. More about that later, I need to tell someone (my roommate, like that's not a huge hint) and then I can spill to the world!

Look for our first competition on Monday, I'm finishing up the specifics.

Stay healthy!

Support Megan!

Megan and I will be riding in the Tour de Cure this February. We'll be riding 25 miles! This ride raises money for the American Diabetes Association. Millions of people are affected by diabetes in the US, those with the disease and their families. Megan is fundraising by selling a gorgeous sock pattern. It's a really good cause and a really cute sock! You can also donate $10 directly to Megan's tour page and be entered in a drawing for wonderful prizes!

I'll be in Houston until Sunday so I don't know when I'll have a chance to check my email but when I return hopefully I'll have a button and I'll get everyone on the sidebar.

Welcome!

This Fiber-along is for crafty people who are trying to shed some pounds. We're here to support each other, celebrate our accomplishments, promote activities (knitting instead of eating!), and inform each other of crafty projects relating to weightloss.

There will be challanges. The challanges won't be associated with how much weight you have lost, but with effort and spirit! There will be fiber related prizes and exercise related prizes.

I also encourage you to pick up a project that corresponds with weight loss and exercise. Pick something sexy or knit up that yoga bag!

All fiber crafters are welcome! To sign up send an email to me at brena80@gmail.com with your name and webaddress (if you have one!)
