FunnyDuddies 6 Posted July 23, 2006 Mousecrazy, got you added. Welcome to the christmas wish list! Nana, do you have a wish to add to the list? Either a weight or a personal wish for yourself? Everyone else I hope all is well. I actually am doing the same as Nana and starting to address and do all of my christmas cards. if I don't do it now they will get out the day after christmas. I like to try and send them out the day after Thanksgiving. That way i know they have plenty of time to get to everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mousecrazy 2 Posted July 23, 2006 Thanks, FunnyDuddies! This will be great inspiration! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FunnyDuddies 6 Posted July 23, 2006 I think that because Christmas is the time that the whole family gets together, and that most of them I will not see until that time, I want to make a huge difference in my appearance for my next visit with them. I want them to see that not only I could do it, but that the band was not the huge mistake they think it is. I hope they will Celebrate with me in whatever weight loss victory i have by that point, but I really hope that I get my wish for Christmas and get almost halfway to goal.

jenn28 0 Posted July 23, 2006 Count me in!!!!!!! My goal is to be at 205 by Christmas!! I am currently at 230 and I have been at a standstill for about 2 weeks! SO hopefully this is the kick in the butt that I need! I to LOVE Christmas! It's been fun ready all of your Christmas memories, ideas and recipies. Our fun tradition we started in our family about 4 years ago is playing dirty Santa and Christmas trivia. Since most of the family is over 20 years of age (with the exception of my 2 little ones and my cousin's two new babies) we decided to do the dirty gift exchange and call it Dirty Santa! (this is where everyone who wants to participate brings a gift at a 25.00 value and we draw numbers and #1 grabs a gift , opens it and then #2 grabs a gift and can either take #1's gift or grab an unopened gift, then you keep going until all #'s have gotten a gift. We had to put a 3-steal limit on it! It can get pretty crazy in our family! We usually have about 15 people participating! After this is done, my aunt gets us all together to do Christmas trivia. She has a bunch of x-mas related trivia questions and the winner of each questions gets a Lottery Ticket. Good luck to all of you on completing your goals!!!!!!! Thanks Funny for starting such a fun thread!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the best me 6 Posted July 23, 2006 Awright awright awright!!!! I come into this thread kicking and screaming and grumbling and mumbling and rolling my eyes, okay already!!!!!! I saw Cindy's (mousecrazy) sig with the Christmas Challenge and HAD to come, now I'm reading through the thread feeling like a dope because I am NOT crafty and giddy and I don't decorate a tree in each room with THEMES?! for goodness sakes! However, I would like to be at my Tummy Tuck goal weight by Christmas. And I would like to send out my Christmas cards this year. Forget on time, I just want to get them sent out. I missed them last year. DOH! So, in a way, this really is a thread for me, even though I'm a dope, I just don't wanna be such a good one! LOL Join/Goal/Current? is that It? Nope it's J/G/C...here, I'll fix it. J 179.2/ C 179.2 /G 165 And I will have my card envelopes addressed BY Thanksgiving. I will have them mailed by Dec 10th. All of them, with a picture of the kids enclosed. So there. Thanks to all you nutso freaks out there. :heh: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the best me 6 Posted July 23, 2006 Its the quietness the season offers... the air seems to be filled with peace... the joyfulness in strangers voices... the willingness to help those in need... communities actually work together... neighbors speak to each other instead of just waving by... people seem to have a little more patience with each other... friends/family make special plans to visit one another... more laughter, more kindness, more love during this time. Christmas IS magical. THAT's it for me, too! I love that, Paula. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
