    I'm with you -- so many friends that I joined with a few months ago have disappeared :( I would love to add you! Anyone else that feels the same, feel free to add me! I'm always in need of encouragement and good friends with the same goals :)

    I hear ya! I heard once (I really, really want to attribute it to Ray Romano or Jerry Seinfield, no idea why) but they said to stay active, they got a cheapie dollor store calendar and a big red marker. Every day they did *something* and made an x on the day. Finish a month and hang it on the wall next to the calendar, so all you have to do is keep the 'x' snake growing!

    Sweets are tough for me too! Some suggestions
    - better quality sweets. I love my local 'healthy' grocery store Earth Fare, so their chocolate (especially organic reeses cups) usually satisfies in a square or serving size, unlike hersheys
    - sweet fruits, like strawberries and pink lady apples, with maybe a spoonful of light chocolate sauce is both filling and satisfying
    - yogurt! yogurt yogurt all the time. a bajillion flavors
    - smoothies are easy and fun and perfect for summer, as are fruit popsicles.

    I am here!! I love motivating people and sometimes when I'm exhausted seeing others workout stats gets my rear end up and out. This is a lifestyle change for myself not a summer phase to fit in a bikini or whatever.
