ok ramona denton, time to lose that middle age middle!
the first two weeks sound challenging, but i know you can this !
Hi Rachel!!
Thanks for the vote of confidence!
I just stumbled across your blog today. Good luck! I can’t wait to see how you do.
Hi Sara! It is nice to meet you.
I checked out your blog, and it’s really great. I really like the name in particular: against the grain. Such nice mutliple meanings…
Thanks for letting me know you’re rooting for me!
just dropping a line since i see jimmy and christine moore just started thier challenge with you. his menu blog was like, shake, shake,,,,,shake…lol.
you guys are trend setting
Hi Rachel!
I have not had a chance to read much of Jimmy’s blog since the interview with the Eades. I am a little tired of the shakes already – I think I like IFing better. Hopefully the shakes will help with the visceral fat as designed…
Have a great day!!
Good Luck Ramona,
I am looking forward to reading about your progress. I have the book on order from my library. If I like it and you and others give the plan a good review, I will buy it.
Maureen
Thanks Maureen!
