I am with you Barbara. Love sweets and candy/chocolate. Can you count starbursts as a fruit?? I want my old body back as well. I am not that overweight, but as I get older my weight has shifted to places I don't like!! I've got 2 boys - ages 18 and 14. I am thirty-eighteen (much nicer way of saying 48, don't you think?). It only gets harder as you get older - not fair!!!!0

Hi I am with you as well. Candy is my downfall: lemonheads and friends, now and laters, skittles not a real big chocolate eater. I gave candy up for lent so I have not had any in a while not suffering as bad as I thought! Lol I am also 48 3 kids 24, 20, 19. I have been struggling with my weight over the last 5 years lose, gain lose again and gain again. This time I am hoping to keep it off. I just want to wear a pair of shorts and a tank top!!! Good luck!!! Feel free to add me as a friend as I am always to be supportive and to get support as well. This is definitely a journey!!!0
