Hello everybody!! My name is Sharon, and I woke up one day and was close to 100# overweight...AND the dryer had shrunk all of my clothes!! How in the world did this happen??!! LOL...hmm..I wonder...it couldn't have been my love for twinkies, cokes, and McDonalds french fries. I also work in a bakery. I have been a cake decorator for 26 years. So, this time of year is kinda hard, cuz I am around lots of candy at work...kinda my weakness. So anyway, I would love for people to add me as a friend on here. I started this up because of my best friend is doing this as well, and she really likes MFP. Take care everyone~~ :O)

    Yum.................I love twinkies and french fries. You can still work some in there and lose weight. Remember it's not about depriving yourself, its about making good choices the majority of the time.

    Agreed! I don't give up any of the foods I love. I just eat less of them and way less often. Had ice cream last night for the first time in a couple months. I wouldn't stick with this change any other way :)

    Best of luck on your journey!

    My sister is a pastry chef... thank goodness she lives far away, but I hear your pain (as someone who doesn't eat her own creations, but LOVES to 'taste' things that other people have made!) Friend me if you like!
  • Feel free to add me if you want :bigsmile:

    OOH! As a baker maybe you can come up with some "healthy" frosting recipes to share with the rest of us cake-lovers? Don't worry about cake... I just want the frosting... haha

    Welcome to MFP! Wishing you lots of success!
