    I guess I should have mentioned that I would like to maintain through the next couple of weeks.
    I know for myself and I would think alot of other folks, this is a hard time of year to "diet" or be stricter with your diet. This isn't new for me, I just am looking for support to do this, instead of doing it all alone.

    I totally understand and judging by what others have written here and on other forums ... enjoy yourself

    For myself I'm keeping it strict, Christmas or not.... Apparently my wife is cooking 6 roast chickens and 2 turkeys for Christmas day - I'm having none of that crap. It's so easy to put on weight .... so difficult to lose it :o

    Sounds like your wife is doing you a favor there. What a great protein source. Add veggies n and sweet potatoes and you've got an awesomely balanced healthy meal......enjoy!!

    I'm here and I'm in! I consider myself a supportive friend and like having the support as well. Been here for a bit , had a bit of a walk about and working back at it. Some folks aren't around much any more or all - kinda disappointing but it happens!

    What a mean woman.

    Off to eat some fresh baked cookies and brownies prepared by my own terribly mean wife . . .

    You are welcome to add me, too. I am a SAHM, and I log in regularly and comment. It's hard to be around food all day. :)

    Oh man ... I sympathise with you.... Fortunately my wife's bakery skills have plummeted lately.... At one point she was getting heavily into 'sugar craft' and needless to say I was the guinea pig :o

    How about taking a good long and honest look in the mirror, dig deep and accept responsibility for your own health and fitness? Then, find a calorie count and exercise regime that you can stick to for the long term, and then slowly add friends who you find in the forums that share a similar philosophy and lifestyle.

    Or you can randomly add people and demand that they be more supportive. I guess whatever works for you.

    I like the first suggestion!! Thx :drinker:
