Help me shed pounds for road litter

I have been a life member of Weight Watchers for a number of years. Like you, I know what I must do to maintain my personal goal of 188 pounds when I weigh myself each morning. I have maintained the Weight Watchers goal of 196 pounds + 2 when weighing in at meetings, but the margin is getting smaller. I have been goofing off regarding my exercising while picking up road litter. I hope this blog will help keep me on track.

I keep my commitment to others much better than to myself. I need others to sponsor road sections so that I will get out their exercising when picking up road litter. I am headed out today to ask business to support me through EnviroCorps Litter Free Roads program.

looks like your just here to get financial gain from us. There are TONS of people here that have lost weight w/o getting money or sponsorship from anyone.

as far as your ticker goes, its all spelled out for you in the Newbie Tips and Tricks thread in the Newbie section.
 
There is a misunderstanding here. No money goes into my pocket. I am a volunteer performing a community service. It is actually costing me money.
 
People do donate money to EnviroCorps, a non-profit organization. I have personally donated over $12,000 to this organization. Money is involved in just about everything, including this web page of yours with all its ads.

I have controlled my weight for many years and would like to help others by letting them know what helped me. Is there something wrong with that?

Thank you for the information on the ticker information.
 
spamming is prohibited here at WLF, so in that context, yea, what your doing is wrong. if you'd like to post about your weight loss and such, thats great, but we cant' have people posting only to encourage others to financially contribute in some way or another, no matter how great the intentions. I assume your intentions are genuine, you really want to raise money for this organization and thats great, however, its still considered spam and its a no no here.

You realize in your profile you listed that YOU were the PRESIDENT of this organization. That fact totally backs up my claim that your spamming.
 
Jumping in to what Korrie has said, if you want to partcipate, that's great. If you've lost weight and kept it off, then your help and support is always appreciated.

But when you join 3 days ago and your only posts are soliciting contributions for the company you're the President of, then yeah, that's spamming.
 
I have no intentions of soliciting money from your members! I do have a strong desire to help others to loss weight. If they are like me, that may involve money that they pay or that others pay. I paid Weigh Watchers money until I reached my goal. There was an incentive for me to reach goal so that I would no longer have to pay the fee.

My point is, it often helps to be responsible to someone other than yourself. I would appreciate your support and that of others in maintaining my weigh by patrolling for road litter were others are depending on me and encouraging me on.

Yes, but we dont' allow WW to spam our forums either. Look man, your clearly spamming, drop the subject. If you want to 'blog' here about your weight loss and how your losing, other than mentioning your company, then please, feel free. Otherwise, its time to move on.
 
I agree that we should drop the subject. The only problem is I obviously do not understand your definition of spam. I will do my best not to be inappropriate post on this form.

I gained one pound from yesterday. I spent my time walking from one business to another. That gave me exercise and everyone was friendly and supportive which made me feel good. I hope you have had a good day also. I look forward to your support in maintaining my public (fully dressed) goal and reaching my personal goal of 188 pounds in my birthday suit.
 
I am just checking to see if my photo shows up here now.

I checked this post and there was no photo. I then discovered that there is a difference between photo and Avatar. I uploaded the same photo as an avatar and now it is posted in this form. I hope this helps anyone else that was having the same problem of seeing their photo on forms. I hope I lost a little weight hassling over this for 2 days.

Well this morning the scale tells me I am down 1.2 pounds. I would like to think this is doe to fat loss, but I know better. Yesterday’s lunch and dinner were good but considerably less than normal. I am hungrier this morning than normal. Therefore I will simply gain the weight back today if I do not get out and exercise some more. I hope it stops raining.
 
Hi there ...Welcome!...For what it's worth...Great Job on your weight loss!!!..I wish you much success in your journey :D!!!
 
Things go a little hectic today. We had to go after our camper which was being repaired and had business meeting with other people so I did not get my walk in today. The shorter daylight hours really cut into things. The good news is my weight lost support system got a boost today and it will be harder for me to come up with excuses not to get my exercise. We had a heavier dinner this evening so I will probably see a weight gain in the morning.
 
Yeah, the winter months really cut into my outside exercising. I'm lucky to have access to a gym through my day job but even so, it's kinda sad to come to work in the dark and leave the gym at night in the dark. I try to get outside at lunch just so I can see the sun! :)
