Welcome to the adventure, and keep up the good work on your weight loss! Anyone out there know when SSF starts counting the weight loss from? (Richmond only counts the weight you lose after your official weigh in at orientation). I think SSF may base it upon your weight at referral, but I'm not sure.

I am going to South San Franciso. Yeah!!!!!! It is close to home. I am waiting on my orientation date... but realize that is still 8-12 weeks away according to the letter I recieved. Since recieving my letter I have lost 8 lbs. I swear it was easier to lose weight when I was younger. I have been wearing a pedometer to get 10,000 steps in, but I think mine must be broken.... I know (okay I think I know)I must walk more than 4000 steps a day. Colleen__________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
