How to lose 10 pounds
It took me
5 weeks
It made me
happy and proud

How I did it: by going to weight watchers meetings, and keeping a food journal.  it's a little difficult at first, getting the point systme down, but that is why you go to meetings.  they help you, and give you lots of ideas.  there is no boredom on this plan, and you don't have to deprive yourself of anything.  just make better choices.

lose an additional 16 after that and become a liftetime weight watchers member (read all 7 entries…)
it has been done, although...

...weight watchers never recognized it, so i lost faith in them in that respect. it’s a great program though, and i highly recommend it.
also with another although… i did gain a little over the holidays, so i know i have to lose that 10 pounds. but i feel great, and considering that i am an old lady, i look great…. LOL
the program works. if you work it.

make BELLY DANCERS FOR CHARITY a real thing, and plan the next fundraiser (read all 7 entries…)
haiti, pulmonary fibrosis, local pet shelter, autism...

check.

next one should be to benefit vets, hopefully in relation to pets, as in a pets for vets group, but something local. (and i mean vets is in veterans, not veterinary.
also would like to do smile train.
and i want to do a rock show for doctors without borders. that one is going to be on a larger scale so there is more to work out.
and all this takes money.
which i don’t have at this time.
