* UPDATE:Sponsor-A-Pound




I got the idea from titus2woman and she saw it on The Rachael Ray show and I thought I'd give it a try.I've got 50 pounds to lose and I was wondering if anyone out there wanted to help by giving me an incentive for each increment of 5 pounds lost or otherwise known as sponsoring a (5)pound! The incentive is up to you, it can be anything...sending an encouraging card, buying someone lunch, anything.
Just post a comment and I'll update the list.

I've done it! I lost my first 5 pounds!



  • 5~Sarah said she'd send me 5 balls of yarn for my first 5 pounds! Thank you...you should check her blog out...I'm kind of addicted! ~accomplished!


  • 10~Kalurah has graciously donated a pair of Obon earings for me and a friend!!!


  • 15~Misty's buying me a new pair of shoes!


  • 20~Sandi crocheted item, my choice! check out her page and sponsor her too!


  • 25~MissRach offered up her very own Knotty Pines Scarf, Hat, and Mitts Set pattern! I checked out on her blog...it rocks!


  • 30~Tiffany is going to give me a $30 gift certificate to a store of my choice!!!


  • 35~


  • 40~


  • 45~Misty's getting me a 50 minute massage!


  • 50~Lisette, my sister said she's taking me shopping! $100!! Get your Credit Card ready...I'm going to lose this weight!


I am also going to keep a photo Journal...but I can't promise anything!

I'll take your 30. I have looked around your site and I know NOTHING about crocheting (LOL did I spell that right?) so how about a gift cert for $30 to your fave store?

Thank you for supporting me!!!

Okay, at 15 pounds, I will buy you a cool pair of heels .. you pick the heel type, I pick the shoe and surprise you! And at 45 pounds, I will treat you to a day as the spa, Burke Williams, and a relaxing 50 minute back massage.
