Cake decorator starting this process all over again.....

Started MFP in 2011 and had good success. I am sadly starting all over with a few added pounds. I am a cake baker/sahm which means I ALWAYS have sweets in my house. Looking for friends who understand this struggle and can help encourage me. I am super motivated to lose as much as I can before I turn 30 in May and I want to STAY healthy. I am tired of the aches and pains and uncomfortable life I am living. I was an avid blogger 2 years ago so you can check out my profile, I have some updating to do but I am still the same person just heavier. :flowerforyou:

  • You sound just like me!! I decorate cakes (as a hobby) and am almost always baking something for my 3 kids or husband and i turn 30 in November so i wanted to shed the kilos before my big party!!
    It's so hard when surrounded by all the temptation but with determination and lots of motivation i am kicking butt!!

    Good luck! I am in a similar boat -- I am a professional pastry chef in a french bakery and all day long there are a million fattening tasty things nearby! Eventually I'm going to start finding/creating low-cal recipes for sweets, until then it's HANDS OFF! Lol
