Feel free to add me, that goes for anyone :) I'm a new mom of a lovely little girl. I've been a member for a while but just started logging in everyday this past week and becoming part of the online community. The motivation and encouragement from friends on here really helps keep you on track!

Where do you buy nutritional yeast? Is there a particular brand you use? [/quote] I usually find the nutritional yeast in the bulk foods at my local health food store or Whole Foods...much cheaper to buy that way then prepackaged.

I was in a similar situation...was on a roll losing weight and then found out I was pregnant, too! It's funny how life works out sometimes.

Lentils! Tasty, cheap, and they cook quickly.

I'll motivate you if you'll motivate me! I'm a 24 year old first time mom who needs some support, too. We can do this! :)

I have a CSA and I love getting fresh beets and tomatoes! I won't eat tomatoes unless they are fresh from the farm.. I'm a tomato snob ;) haha
