This site looks easy to use and thought I would try it out. Turns out my normal breakfast is a lot more calories than I thought. So, I know of a change I need to make already. I am 51 year old single mom from Universal City Texas. I feel motivated this morning, because I bought new clothes yesterday and that was depressing. I've been waiting to lose more weight before I bought some, but the need for clothes won out. So, that's ok ...today is a new day and maybe this site will help. One day at a time.

    How do you add people? Not sure --it is stressful right now. Thanks for all your support! We are redecorating the entire kitchen. I don't have a sink, stove or anything really in the kitchen. I am getting a total kitchen makeover. All I have right now, is a small microwave and washing dishes in the shower is not a lot of fun! Any suggestions on how we- my 17 year old son and I can last a few more weeks without eating junk and/or take out?
    Thanks,
    Kris
