Death boxes, pop tarts & ice cream, and Gremlins

OMG... thank you, thank you, thank you. I am fairly new to this site, and I must say that during the course of the past few weeks, I have read (and laughed so hard at) many of the threads on this site. :laugh: I feel as though I have found my second home.

Honestly, this is going to be a long journey for me, and I am beyond thankful that I have found a place that will not only help me with my journey to a healthier lifestyle, it will keep me smiling while I'm doing it. :happy:

Gotta run, time to start breakfast for the Gremlin. She gets fussy if she has to nuke her own pop tarts in the death box when she wakes :wink:

    It's nice to see when people that are new to the site understand that you can get in shape while having fun here. So many new peeps have no sense of humor or go running to the mods without getting the joke.

    So you're a mom that has to lose a lot of weight? If you want some terrific support and motivation for your journey, you should send a friend request to DontStopB_Leakin. She's been where you've been and she provides awesome motivation for fellow mommies.

    I tried this site at the beginning of the year and lost some weight but life got in the way, and I gained it all back plus some. Now that its spring I am ready to try it again. Any and all support would be great. Thanks

    Do you microwave your ice cream? I am confused.

    No, silly, you put ice cream on top of microwaved pop tarts.
