    I'm game. I try to do groups for specific things, but always end up following something different than originally intended.

    I really just need to stick to my plan. My downfall is fast food. I need a way to stay away from it. It's evil:devil:

    OK...your right fast food is evil...

    How frequently do you want to check in? What support do you need? I basically need a good kick in the butt when I start to falter.

    I like good easy recipes which I can share with you. My new goal is a small plate filled with 1/2 veggies, 1/4 meat and 1/4 carbs...it's easy to follow and hopefully painless

    My downfalls are alcoholic beverages, eating food without even realizing I am putting it in my mouth and dining out with poor choices

    Nice to meet you!!!

    I'm in!!! I really need help and motivation especially with TOM!!!! I'm in a wedding next week and I'm just trying to maintain where I am and not put on any weight. Not to mention I'm fighting against Fibromyalgia which is an uphill battle anyway. So I say BRING IT ON!!!! We can win this fight together!!!

    eating out can be really hard. just focus on ur goals and make simple substitutions. I know its hard but u have to do it!

    instead of alcohol or soda. ORDER WATER
    instead of pasta or rice, ORDER BROWN RICE OR WHEAT PASTA
    instead of fries/mashed potatoes, ORDER STEAMED VEGGIES OR SALAD
    and most importantly, instead of fried, order GRILLED/BAKED

    u get the idea.

    Good luck everyone!
