    San Antonio. Moved here back in 2001 because of all the family owned Mexican restaurants. That ended up being a problem....about 50 to 60 extra pounds worth of problem for me. That's probably the biggest challenge for me now: keeping a healthy control on tacos, enchiladas, frijoles, tostadas, aros con pollo and all the other dishes this city is famous for.

    I am from San Antonio and currently living in FL, I could have never lost the weight I have if I still lived there. But I can not wait to go back and have some good ol mexican food!
    Which restraunts does your family own?
