awesome. I switched to a vegetarian diet 2 months ago. It is great and actually now I am mostly vegan. If you haven't checked out the China study, do it. Also, the Engine 2 diet has some awesome recipes. So does Whole food mommies.

Hey, feel free to add me. I have been at this for a year - minus a few months when I hit a plateau and got a bad attitude. I lost 40 pounds last year and am looking for another 50 this year. I'd love to share ideas and encouragement with you.:happy:

Stevia is awesome and natural. Tru lemon and crystal light have the packets for bottled water with stevia now. Try that.

I started 5 weeks ago and need to lose 80 lbs. Just don't give up if it doesn't happen quickly - I have only lost 8 lbs so far and I work hard. building the habits is the important thing right now. Move a lot! Do weights and cardio and keep a positive attitude. Every day you do the right thing congratulate yourself -…

Fell in love with Trader Joe's while visiting my brother in California. I would love to shop there, but thanks to Utah's draconian liquor laws Trader Joe won't live here. Boo Hoo!

Yeah! I'll try that tomorrow. Another great way to eat it is to put 1/4 cup of cottage cheese in 1/2 cup oatmeal and add a few pecans and some sweetener. It makes the oatmeal very creamy.

Hey, My brother, a physical therapist, told me to sit forward in a chair and rest my elbows on my knees. Then I raised the toes of one foot as far toward the ceiling as I could and held it there for at least 10 seconds. I did three sets on each leg. Also the alternating ice and heat helped a lot. The exercises strengthen…

I like to make oatmeal (1/3 cup dry cooked with water), 1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese and a few pecans or raisins ( just a tablespoon or so) Very filling, but low in calories.

I'm looking to lose around 80lbs as well. Big goal and so far slow going. What happened when I turned 40? Count me in.
