    Welcome, Pinky! :drinker:
    What helps me is:
    - lots of water
    - fat free, as much as possible: milk, yogurt, salad dressings
    - lots of fruits and veggies
    - grill or bake meats and veggies.
    - try out different spices, besides just salt and pepper
    - limit saturated fats as much as possible (I do 10g or less per day).
    - go for whole grains, not refined.
    Try different foods each day--the body will plateau if you have the same routine every day.
    Have fun looking for inventive ways to fit exercise into your day--my grandson and I play tag, etc.
    Best of success.

    Welcome, and lose the word "disgrace" from your vocabulary! We all got here for different reasons but we're all here now for the same reason. Forget about what got you here and focus on why you're here and getting to where you want to go.

    You'll do great!
