    Hello,

    Im in south GA, so I know exactly the kind of "home cooking" your speaking of. If it isn't fried or cooked with ham, or fat back, it doesn't get ate!!!! LOL I learned a long time ago, I can't eat like that!! good luck on your journey and we can support each other!! Feel free to add me!!

    Ha!!! MIDNITEthree, I'm glad someone can understand where I'm coming from!! I'm learning to back away from that, or to use some definite moderation in not only eating, but my cooking also. It's tough, but I know I can do it! Thanks for your support!!! :)
