Soooo....almost a year has gone by. Anyone want to try to meet this spring? It would be great to see how everyone is doing on goals.

Perhaps it is the spring fever I am experiencing...or maybe it's because I have tulips and daffodils blooming...whatever the case, has anyone thought more about this and how we can coordinate the event? :-)

AkMak crackers with 1/2 Babybel cheese. 35 calories in the cheese as long as you eat only half and 58 calories in 2.5 Akmak crackers. (2.5 Akmak crackers is equal to about 5 soda crackers.)

Wow...I would much rather have a piece of Pumpkin pie at 180 calories than two itty bitty teeny tiny little chocolate mints for 60! :noway: If I feel like I get more I do okay, it's when I feel like I'm not getting enough that I start to want to eat everything in sight. My brain thinks I may waste away to…

Oh, thanks for that link. You are correct, not the best news...oooh, it was a rough weekend.

Does anyone know what kind of sauce most Chinese restaurants use for garlic chicken? I really hope it's not sugar based.:tongue: I blew it with the white rice, so I'm hoping it's not a double whammy.:frown:

I really think if someone has not struggled with weight loss and shifting eating habits, people really have no clue how difficult it is. Food is one of the few things that is always in a person's face. You cannot get a way from it, and of course you need it to survive. If anyone asks me if I want a cookie/muffin/etc., I…

Tri-Cities Washington. :happy:

It would take me 4 hours to get there, but it is always nice to put faces to names. :-) Since it is the spring, count me in. Any earlier in the season, and I won't make it...I don't like driving the pass in dicey weather :-)

diannholland1965 Oooh, good one. I will definitely try this. I am trying to cut out sugar anyway. How do you do with Splenda? Thanks for the tip. :happy:

Les Schwab...:happy: Since he's started working there he has lost weight and firmed up. On the days he doesn't work he has to go running because he gets so restless...

Or something like that. :grumble: I have been designated the "dessert bringer" to the Thanksgiving dinner I and my son will be partaking in. Please send some good dessert ideas. I am the only "fat" person in the bunch. (My son has a job whose tag line is "when they see you they come running"...those of you who live in the…

Welcome - welcome - welcome!!! The people and this site as a whole are a great resource. Good luck!

What flavor of pudding do you use? Guess I'm a bit slow on the uptake today. :blushing:

Okay, I'm in...my goal is to be down one pant size. Good luck all! :tongue: Thanks for suggesting this.

I second the welcome! We are all in this together. :-) Good luck...

I do not own a scale. I have a small bathroom and I kept stubbing my toe on the blasted thing (the scale not the bathroom) so I tossed it, rather angrily, into the trash. :-D

Loretta_Jo Every time I read that you have lost 171 pounds I am just amazed...you must be soooo proud. That is such an accomplishment. (I have about 100 to lose.)

Thanks for all the warm welcomes. :-)

I've never cooked chicken on a rotisserie without the skin, I would think though if you could keep steam in the rotisserie while the chicken is cooking, the chicken probably wouldn't burn... I have cooked one in a crock pot. Just throw it in the pot and in a few hours you have a nice juicy chicken. Toss some veggies in and…

But then in the next segment they talk about which celebs are getting "fat."

I am new to the site. I'm hoping by keeping track of every single thing I consume will help me lose weight. :-) I enjoy reading about others successes also!
