Dear Jenne;
My oh My! You are pulling in those numbers! You are getting there, sometimes we are called through slow and difficult times, this may be that week, where it feels like its slow moving. But remember to stay the course. Its not about the daily or even weekly numbers ( most of the time), its about the lifestyle change of working out and eating sensible. You are getting there, I see it, I hear it and I know it to be true as well. You can do this, I know you can. I believe in you Jenne Aguirre. So don't you even think on any other thoughts other than. I know I can! And I know you can too!
Be Strong!

Hi Miss Jenne.....I am so proud of you for the effort you are makiing & so excited to hear your 1st upadte!!! You are absolutely going to do it!!! You have so many people praying for you & pulling for you. Ok, I have racked my brain & came up with what I think are 2 good incentives. If you don't agree, we'll come up with something else. I am honored to cheer you on!! At lb #55, I will make you an appointment with my "stylist extraordinaire" at JCon. If you want a cut, color, highlight, new style, you got it. By then, you'll feel like a new woman, might as well look like one too. THEN........on the 6 month anniversary of the time you reach your 82lb goal (this as a motivator to keep it off) We'll hit the mall for a fabulous new swimsuit & I'll get a 4 pack of tickets for Adventure Island for your family & the 4 of you can play & celebrate your accomplishments together!!!
Stay focused!! You WILL do it!!

I just want you to know that I'm very proud of you. What you're doing is remarkable!!! As believers we know that God has blessed us with our temples, and it's up to us to take care of them.

Thanks again and I can't wait to hear the new results!

Update One...
Hello everyone!!
First I want to say that God has given me the strength and dedication to do this. I would not be able to do any of this without His grace and love-He is faithful!! Secondly, Thank You to everyone who has encouraged, pushed, checked in, and cared. I started this not knowing what would come of it. I want to say I was just amazed and in awe at the responses that I received. I got emotional just to see how many people cared. These last 11 days have been challenging but to tell you the truth any time I even think about giving up, one of ya'll pop into my head and I remember the accountability.
So, now for the results. I did my "weigh in" this morning and....drum roll please....I have lost 7.5lbs to date!! I am so excited and encouraged!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!

Hi Jenne,
I want to encourage you to keep on keeping on! There are times when circumstances around seem like they are going against you, and maybe they are, but you must push through to the other side. You have done it this week and and you can continue. If this doesn't make sense then that is a good thing, if it does then its meant to encourage you to press on!
"You are beautiful and wonderfully made"
God plus one,
Kathy

HI, I hope you had a great 4th of July. Mine was very relaxing and nice. I think this is great you are doing this help web site, I know how hard it is to lose weight, I am there and go off and on diets and work out plans myself. I know it will only work with the support of other people and with the help of God and your will power to make it happen, you have to be totally ready for a change in lifestyle and mindset. I get frustrated with myself when I start off well and then just blow it. I have been trying to find a plan for myself to get on a diet and excercise program and I just need to make it happen. I have a friend who needs support in losing over 100# and I myself have set a goal of 40# to lose, I have already lost 7 and have a lot more to go. I am proud of you and will keep you in my prayers and I will buy you a new shirt when you reach your 25# mark. Good luck and I know you can do it...
Love,
Elizabeth

Hello my Jennene,
I am so proud of you! You are going to do what it takes because I know you and when you put your mind to something you can do it. SO, I have something to tell you cause if you lose 82 lbs. then I'll sell you my husband!!....no, I'm kidding I don't think he'll let me do that. I'll get you a CAT!...wait, you already have one. I know! I'll give you my children for the weekend and you'll have a GREAT time with them! No, that probably won't work. Um Humm...what could I do? I am going to say, madam, at your 10lb weight loss we are going to need to do something big. What shall we do? You think about it. See what you want to do. I am thinking we should go to the mall and do some shopping or get our nails done or maybe watch a funny movie or I don't know-the ball is in your court girl. I am TOTALLY supportive of whatever, whatever, WHATEVER you need me to do. Anyway, love you, I am so proud of you, you can do this!! You will be healthier and feel better. You know I love you!! Alrighty, you just tell me what you need me to do. I will call you every day if thats what you need. I know you can do this!!
Love ya,
Janene

Stay Strong Jenne, I believe in YOU!
In Christ,

My dear and darling friend,
It is about time you began thinking about yourself and your health, too!
Even though there are many, many miles between us, you are often in my thoughts. You have been such a fantastic friend to me (and still are); I will offer you whatever kind of encouragement you need or that I may think of. I miss our breaks / speed walks / quick talks around and around the building and inside the atrium during our careers at CSE.
I will sponsor you at 12 lbs. by walking briskly with you on the beach. This walk will have to occur sometime during August 9th - 12th. After our walk in the sand and surf, we will then have a wonderful, healthy meal on Clearwater Beach (my treat) at the restaurant of your choice! I will also sponsor you at 28 lbs. with a few pairs of new colorful socks! I realize that you live in FL, but what young, beautiful woman doesn't need some great wardrobe accessories?
Now, there is something that I want you to do for yourself.
Start a Positive Journal. Right now. Find a notebook. It doesn't have to be a fancy one, just a plain one from the Dollar Store or Target will do, but you must write in it everyday. Or you may even keep a "notebook" on the computer. Do not worry about spellings or punctuations.
Start out by writing/typing ten (10) Positive things that you like about yourself. Could be your fingernails, your ability to practice patience in difficult situations, the fact that you are a great listener... You understand? For example - I think you have a fantastic smile, you have an infectious laugh, you give marvelous hugs, you are honest ~ even when the truth might hurt (but that's a great quality for a friend to have in my opinion), you have a kind soul, you have 2 terrific children who love you tremendously, your husband absolutely adores you.
Remember, for every negative thought one must have seven (7) positive thoughts in order to cancel out those negatives.
You believe in yourself and you can do this.
I Love You Jenne,
XO,
Holly

Well, that is awesome!!! I'm also on a diet/work out plan to get to my pre-pregnancy weight (really to fit into my old jeans and to wear my wedding rings again!) My best friend Erika is helping me stay accountable for my workouts and diet (since it's so hard to do something like this without a partner). I email her every day to tell her how many calories I had the day before and what workout I did that day.I could be that support system for you...email me every day or every other day to tell me what you've done/ eaten that day. We can do this together :o)
Good luck!!!
Mindy sister

Then, we you reach lb#35 I'll buy your ticket to Houston so you can babysit your sweet niece!!! Then, when you reach lb#75 maybe you and me will take a mother daughter trip to some cool city for the weekend and have the time of our lives :o)
I love you and I KNOW YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!
MOM

Love you,Marian
In the beginning...
Hello all,
This is taking a lot for me so try and bear with me. Thanks.
I have been struggling with my weight for years now and some of you may understand that it is NOT fun and can be down right depressing. To be quit honest-in the last 6mths to a year I have just given up. I was tired of being on this continued roller coaster-up, down, good day, bad day. In my head I know what I need to do but sticking to it is the difficult part. I have tried a lot of things and a lot of things work...but then I fall of the wagon. So that leads me to today. About a week ago I saw on TV a story of a woman who weighed 400lbs and enlisted support of friends, family, and co-workers to help her by "sponsoring a lb". For example one guy said he would shave his head when she had lost the pound he sponsored-so all the other friends encouraged her as they wanted to see this guy's head shaved also. Each of them made a commitment to help her as she made a commitment to loose the weight. She has since lost her "200 lbs." She has a website I found and read up on-(I pasted it below)it was inspiring. This is something I have never thought of trying-maybe embarassment, maybe invasion of personal space, accountability, etc...Whatever the reason, I need to do this now. I have 82lbs to loose and that is too much to be carrying around on me for health reasons. I am biting the bullet and doing this now instead of prolonging and making worse the inevitable. Please help me-be creative-inspire me! Thank you so much for what I know this will do for me. My starting date was actually July 1st so sorry for the late email. I will keep all of you posted on the progress. If you need ideas-the website below has some. Also, you may fwd this to anyone I might have left out.
PS-My verse during this time is 1 Corinthians 10:13
God is faithful!
Love you-Thank you!!!
Jenne
