    I didn't get rid of anything. This is not a diet but a change in lifestyle. I just do portion control and be smart about it. For example, instead of sitting down with a spoon and pint of ice cream, I have a Skinny Cow mini Fudge Bar (only 50 calories). Whatever my family eats for dinner I eat with a large side salad. If you are that worried about giving things up, it will be difficult at times. You will make bad decisions at times. The point is on those days do more cardio and don't beat yourself up about it.

    Good Luck on your journey. :smile:

    Hi I am new here...I have been dieting since April and have lost 7 pounds since April and now I want to lose more! I have my 30 year class reunion in October and this is a great motivator to do this! I have just had a neck fusion and rotator cuff surgery so it has been a rough winter but now I am now motivated to get into shape! Great to meet all of you here...
