  • No diets work for me. The second I start thinking "diet", my mind rebels, and I feel deprived. I admire people that can stick to these diets. I just strive to eat nutritionally dense carbs like oatmeal and brown rice in appropriate portion sizes. Portion size is a big enough challenge for me :)

  • I like sandwiches with lots of spinach, alfalfa sprouts, pickles, mustard, small amounts of cheese and turkey (shaved). I try to keep the meat and cheese to a minimum and pile on the veggies!

  • I make Stevia Iced Tea with the Stevia drops. Tastes great! I am going to make lavendar lemonade with Stevia tomorrow. I researched Stevia a bit, cause I'm wary about sweeteners that aren't sugar, but couldn't find anything bad!

  • I set mini goals, So my closest mini goal will be 199lbs. I started at 264, and I'm at 217 right now. When I get under 200, I'm buying myself some army pants. And a pedicure:) As far as my ultimate goal, which is probably around 150lbs, maybe I'll buy myself a canoe. I'll really have to save up for that one!

  • Stevia Iced Tea for drinking - Make a pot of strong tea, I use six or so Tetley Orange Pekoe bags plus Pomegranate (green and white tea - 2 bags), brew, steep, chill in fridge, then add lemon juice and stevia (liquid form) to taste. Zero calories, and no artificial sweeteners. Love it!
