    Welcome!! I just started yesterday myself, but used to have a WW membership. I really like this website, it seems to accomplish the same thing and the ppl seem friendlier. For snacks, I'm just keeping to fruits and veggies until I get back into the groove of things. If I have a sandwich I cut slices of cucumbers and place them on the side like chips ;) it has the crunch effect, lol. Also, try plain popcorn. Good luck on ur journey!!

    2burn-thanks for the advice! yea I heard veggies are better option then fruit for some reason. I have dieted before...it was no carb diet and lost about 40 lbs in two months! I had a hard time sticking with it though. But I am in competition with my husband so lets go go go! LOL I like to do salads, smoothies(only sometimes), wraps, and stir fry! I just was sitting at home doing nothing eating well BAD things LOL so time for a change! I do have some recipes too so just hit me up sometime for a recipe! I am currently have ham taken out for dinner...anyone have any suggestions for a recipe?

    thank you megganwinland .
    WVJRSEYGIRL-stopping snacking at night isdifficult! instead of snacking maybe try a walk with music, or carrot with pb. Best thing to help with losing weight is to take up a HOBBY!!! or even two! it keeps you distracted and forget about your eating so much!
    good luck!
