    You're doing awesome! Don't doubt yourself. I believe that as long as we are all more aware of our eating and exercise habits that we've already won. I think its a huge win that you're doing well enough to be taken off of a medication. I'm so happy for you.

    Hi everyone,
    Just want to say I think the key to doing a challenge like this is being given a behavior to try that you may not normally try on your own, and see if it works for you. One of these gems may be the one new ritual you or I need to keep us moving forward. Have a great weekend.

    Way to go everyone ! I had a small loss this week which I found odd as I usually have a small gain because it's the week before that awful friend visits, lol.... but hey, I will take it ! anyway I have 2 term papers and a marketing exam this weekend, so it's a really good thing I'm not a stress eater, and am more a bored eater, or I'd be in big trouble ! Keep up the great work ! GO BLUE !

    Been fighting a head cold the past few days but think it's almost over.
    Great job blue team. It's motivational to read how some are fitting into clothes again and getting some exercise in!
    I have been substituting my sugar with stevia.
    Probably not the best but I'll keep using until they find out its actually terrible and or I grow another limb. Good luck this weekend!

    How do you like the taste of stevia? I've been wanting to try it but I heard it taste weird. Would love to hear more reviews. I'm glad you're feeling better.

    Hey starfishwendy: thank you, I think stevia is OK...its much stronger in flavor to me than regular sugar so I don't use very much.. It's a must for me with my coffee :) it does have aslightly different taste but is bearable to me..

    If anyone has baked with it I would be interested in your results...

    I have baked with Stevia and I thought it was fine. I used a Stevia blend and a recipe formulated for it. However, the blend has sugar alcohol and my DH says it gave him gastrointestinal distress! I had no ill effects.
