  • I don't have any recipes to add but was looking for similar suggestions. The budgetbytes website is very helpful, as is the posts with recipes. Can't wait to try it, I'm not a great cook but they look simple enough!!
  • Feel free to add me even though I'm not a vegetarian! (I'm too darn picky of an eater). I am also looking to lose about 50 pounds, though my goal right now is 15lbs to start. I also have a daughter who is 8mos old, Vanessa, who keeps me on my toes now that she's mobile! :-)

  • I just joined fitness pal and am also a working mom. I am a first time mom to a wonderful 7 month girl. I am sorry to hear about your mother, my mom has a multitude of health problems too.
