WOW...I amazed at all the healthy knowledge right at my fingertips!!!

I have been fighting a losing battle w/ thyroid disease for many years & have gained over 150lbs... it seems that we have finally got in under control & I am working very hard to get this weight off!!!

I started a food journal and calorie counting. My hubby found this site and now we are both logging in daily & keeping on track! I finally have confidence that I can do this!!! :flowerforyou: I am sending you all my blessings & best wishes!! Shannon

    Hi Shannon!!

    I am with you on this site - it's amazing... Little did I know that eating a pretzel was like 340 calories (OMG) I better be on a deserted island before I eat one of those again - I thank this site for opening my eyes!

    Wish you and your hubby success and look forward to seeing that butterfly move.. :)

    Hello, I have been on this site for 2 weeks now. I'm so glad my friend recommended it. I've never kept a food diary before, and I'm also amazed at the amount of calories I eat. I'm glad I'm more observant with what I eat now.
