Hi everyone! My name is April and I am a homegrown, meat and potatoes fed "Hoosier". With that being said, there is really no explanation needed as to why I find myself joining this website. As a kid, every single one of our meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) included a potato, a meat, a vegetable loaded with some form of cream or cheese sauce, salt and butter, bread and something sweet. I am on the healthy wagon now, and I don't let food control me. I have had a few weak moments, and have fallen off of the wagon a couple of times in my 6 month journey, but have gotten right back on again. I have lost 43 pounds so far since March of this year, and I have 10 more to go. Whoever it was that said that the last 10 pounds are the hardest to lose certainly new what they were talking about! I have been stuck for a month at the same weight...talk about frustrating! I am needing some online friends on this site who might be able to exchange some words of encouragement and give some big old cyber space pats on the back. So please, if you have room in your friends list for just one more friend, add me! I currently feel like such a loser, as I only have 2 friends on here, and one is my husband so he was kind of obligated! lol. Thanks all!
