Hi All
Starting with the new year I am going to relly focus on losing 25 lbs by summer.
I am into scrapbooking so I will make a "My journey to thin" scrapbook. I have alot of pics of me at my heaviest and I will measure myself and weigh myself and take pix of the scale and go from there. I will take monthly pix so I can see m7y progress. I feel seing me getting thinner will encourage me to work harder.
Anyone else have a scrapbook of weightloss?
Happy New year to all of you

I don't have a scrapbook of weight loss, but it sounds like something I'd want to do. I do a lot of digital scrapbooking, and although I avoid the camera like the plague, I do have quite a few pictures of me lately. I may start one for motivation.

I bought these cute embellishments form Jolees called at the gym, and then all the food ones and I plan on doing a page when I get caught up. I figured I better, because I know when I look at pictured of y mom from when she was about my age I would ask her "were you pregnant?" she would say no and I would ask "are you sure?" I dont want there to be any confusion, so I will definately chronicle the hard work to get here. And if it is in my scrapbook hopefully that will be motivation to keep it off for life.

I love scrapbooking, but I'd never thought of creating a scrapbook for this weightloss/fitness journey. What a great motivation to keep you moving forward and to look back at when you're feeling like slipping. I think I'll try it too.

I love scrapbooking too and it is so funny because when I get together with other women they are always saying "look how skinny I was" and lamenting over the loss of their old thin bodies, and for me I am so happy to not have that body. I can just sit back with a pleasant smile feeling all warm and fuzzy on the insaide. You gals will too!

it sounds like a good idea, not sure what to put init though. any ideas apart from photos.

I found a picture of me when I was nice and thin at 19 so I will start my journey with that picure and me at my heaviest. I am also looking for some cute stuff like food Mc donalds and a scale. I got some cute ideas from "two peasinabucket' under about me there are several people who are also working on a weightloss scrapbook. I had my daughter take pictures of me while I was working out at my tradmill and my other exercise equipment and I took pix of like my favorite Doughnuts and my water bottle some of these ideas I will incorporate into my journey. Even took pix of some of the diet magazines and the exercise tapes I use. So there is alot of things you can use and just let your imagination run wild.
let us know how you are doing and what kind of an idea you had for your pages
