When choosing you have to look at the net carbs. (Total carbs - the fiber grams). When you do that the flat bread does not look so good afterall! Your best bet is the salad bowl with lots of toppings or the 9-gram bread and take the top bun off and eat it open face.

Hi Ariana, Congrats on taking the first step! It is good that you are starting while you are still young. Embrace this wonderful new lifestyle and you will be amazed at how much fun being healthy can be! Is your family supportive? Are they going to help you by new cooking habits?

Love the sharing and support you all give one another! I have a question... Carrie posted that she "read OP's diary." I did not know that was possible. We can read each others diaries? How does that work? I assume it is by permission only. Like between buddies or something?

I am also 5'4", and I have THREE pounds that like to sneak back on during the holidays! I have gone from size 16 to a size 6 and I want to stay there. I am a weight loss and wellness coach by profession. I teach about accountability and team work. So I thought I would join MFP and walk the talk! Let's do it!
