    Thanks again everyone! Your comments mean a lot to me! To all my friends that have commented thank you so much for putting up with me every day!

    Now I've had some messages and figured I should add this information:

    I eat about 1600-2000 calories a day
    I don't eat breakfast didn't work for me I prefer 1-2 large meals :)
    I lift 3 times per week
    I ride my bike for 90% of my errands, and try to get at least one long ride in per week
    I've slacked on running lately as my running partner has been on vacation but I better pick that up it's embarrassing getting your butt kicked by someone the same age as your Dad.
    I eat at least one dessert a day lately it's homemade ice cream
    I enjoy sabotaging all my MFP friends with food porn whenever I can!

    I have a few basic rules for myself:
    1. Never eat anything I don't truly enjoy - so no pretending cauliflower is anything but what it is and well cauliflower isn't allowed in my house cause YUCK

    2. Be honest with myself at all times

    3. Have fun cause life is too short

    This is amazing! I am glad that someone else feels the same way! I LOVE all of the HONEST advice people give on here. It is discouraging to see that the people who are THE MOST HELPFUL on here get banned because someone got butthurt over the TRUTH!!! If we wanted sugar coated LIES we would seek help from all the people around us in person who have done nothing but enable our bad habits. When I think of a friend, I think of someone who knows I need the truth even if it hurts. My MFP FRIENDS are people I never met before, but have provided the most encouraging words I have ever had with regards to my health.

    Congrats girl, you are doing it right, and you bring up a great point to be THANKFUL for all the help!!
