Hiya! My name is Cookie and I love to bake, hence the name...I started MFP the middle of May..then stopped because we went on a mini vacation 3 days after I started lol! But I have been at it now for 2 weeks and have lost just at 9 lbs. I am hoping to lose about 75 lbs. I have lost 50 lbs about 6 years ago and was doing very well, but then my husband was diagnosed with Melanoma and I gained all the weight back plus some. I am a stress eater and I just gave up. He, by the way is doing well now. So again I am on the weight loss train. I look forward to meeting yall, best of luck to everyone.

    Love your user name!! I can relate! I'm a big cooker, baker, dinner party entertainer. I also found that with that obsession for baking, comes weight gain cause what cook doesn't eat her own stuff. I've had to find new hobbies and stop making 3 squares a day. After all, square meals make round people.

    I'd love to be a friend. I think probably have some of the same struggles with food.
    I've only been on MFP a week and I've already lost 6 lbs. I'm so excited about this weight loss. Great site. Very encouraging and very motivating.

    I cook and grill and entertain all the time, I love it! Thanks for the friend request :) The biggest meal I cook is supper but weekends I tend to overdue breakfast :) OK off to bed for me I have a 11 hour shift at work tomorrow. So I probably wont come on the forums until Thursday, have a great night to all.
