Hey I'll join. Im too young to be obese but I am! In the last three years I have ballooned from 120lbs to about 178 lbs. Im telling ya the extra weight on my frame ain't lookin' good for me.
So here I go:
Name: Dixie
Final Goal: 135-125lbs. Somewhere in there for me. Any less than 120 lbs and I start looking sickly.
1 month goal: 12/3/07 - 10 pounds. (10 pounds in 30 days? Can she do it? Can she stop gaining weight to become the biggest loser of the month?? 
) Hey if you're gonna do this ya might as well have fun doin' it.
What type of diet: More balanced. Im eating too much junk and not enough of the healthy stuff. I've started ordering a salad from the cafe' for lunch on Saturdays, but I'd rather have a good leafy salad everyday for lunch, then something meaty for dinner.
Oh yeah here's a free tip from Dixie:
when you get the urge to munch on something - go eat some ice cubes. You trick your brain into thinking its eating a sneaky snack, but instead your'e eating ice cubes and it adds to your daily water intake keeping you hydrated.
