    Wow, that takes some serious strength!! If I decide to have a "high calorie" dinner (I was told not to call it cheating) I try to eat half and discard the other but it never works!! Great great job!!! You are gonna do great!

    We are all in it together. Two weeks ago I started a weight loss problem for tthe 200 millionth time. I feel the same way,
    NO MORE RESTARTS, THIS IS IT.

    When I start to get hungry I am forcing myself to look for BETTER food alternatives. I know it'll take some getting used to but this is my time to get healthy. I want to feel, look and be better. I am going to post any suggestions for better food alternative choices as I come across them. I hope you will share yours too.

    If everyone works together we will all make it to the finish line. Go for it, and if you stumble, get right back at it again.

    QUICK TIP, The excercising really helps ALOT. Even just walking 1/2 hour per day will knock off 250 calories from your day's intake. Make it a brisk walk.

    Good for you, great way to take charge of your life!!

    Your next step will be to take charge of exercising too! I did that a week ago and feel fantastic!

    Keep up the good work and add lots of people to help encourage you to stick with it, all the "Wtg" "good job" "congrats" are just the little pick me ups that you will look forward to each day!!
