Hope everyone had a great Christmas, Kwanzaa, Chanukah, Winter Solstice, or whatever else people celebrate at this time of the year. We spent Christmas in England this year with James's family and had a wonderful time.

Have been trying to decide whether to continue blogging. The main purpose for starting this blog was to give me incentive to lose some weight. I thought a public forum would help to keep me motivated and on track. That certainly hasn't worked, though I have met lots of wonderful people in the process. I do think it is nice to be able to check in with others who are on the same path I'm on from time to time so maybe I'll limp along a little longer and see how things turn out.

Well, we're at the end of another year. Wow!!! How did that happen??? Can't believe how fast it went. Gosh!!! When I was a kid time dragged, now it flies.

Many thanks to all my faithful readers ... all 2 of you ... ;P and a very Happy 2009!!!

  3. I had the same motivation as you with regard to blogging. Though that hasn't worked out as yet, I remain hopeful. In any case, I value a number of the people I've "met." You are one of them. I hope you continue to blog even if only in spurts.

  4. HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I think that blogging can give you a crank-start, like going to the gym would, or joining a weight-loss club or going to a weight loss clinic, etc. It is mental. The actual blogging is just about socializing with others on the internet and also about having a forum to post your opinions and photos. I enjoy it as long as I use blogging as a tool for me, and not when I try to please others or be politically correct or otherwise feel like I need to say what people want to read.

  6. Quit Blogging!?! Oh I don't THINK so!! What would I do without my Diet Travelogue!? You keep it up Ms. Nona, YOUCAN DO IT! Dear, I know all about starting over again. If this thing was easy, everybody would be thin!

    Have a great New Year Sweetie!

  7. Hey, Nona - I'm struggling with the weightloss blog or not. I find that I tend to ignore it unless I feel like I have something to say, but Kim made a pretty good point when I said I would give it up. I will probably post after each doctor appointment (every three months) which is a pretty good barometer of how I'm doing. Next appointment is February 23rd!

    Do what you feel like doing. IF you go, I will miss you, but if you decide to call it quits, I absolutely understand! Feel free to visit me at my main blog - which is about life, not weight!

  8. Okay - I've changed my mind again - keeping the weightloss blog. But still come see how my other half (the part that's not about weight) lives at SayreSmiles! That's the real me!
