Mission Statement

The purpose of this blog is to motivate, encourage, support each other as we make 2009 a healthier year for the women in our family. Seven sisters (and a few of their daughters) on a weight loss quest for the year 2009. Weight loss goals range from less than 10 pounds to over 100 pounds. We know this won't be easy, especially for those with lots of weight to lose, but we know it will be worth it. Another reason for the blog is simply that if we have to answer to each other about our progress it just might keep us on track and a little more honest. Of course the biggest benefit of the blog will be to keep in touch with each other.
