  • Pizza. it's my biggest weakness. I still have it. Just in a different way now. I make homemade pizza on small tortilla shells. Easy on the cheese and only veggies. No meat. It's satisfy's my pizza cravings.
  • I drink wine, scotch or whiskey. And only on a Friday and/or Saturday night. I used to drink every night. Like an entire bottle of wine and a beer. I had to cut that out. It was killin me! Tonight is Saturday!!! I have a bottle of pinot grigio in the fridge. Then no more til next weekend. Sigh......
  • I love Indian cuisine! I make this and other similar recipes frequently. Once a week or more. I like to add red lentil to this. Any color will do, but red makes it look nice. Brown rice sometimes too.
  • Hi ladies! My name is Julie. Folks call me Jule. Can I join in here? I am looking for my first group to join. It says any color is welcome. I'm white but that's okay by me.

But on a day when things hurt too much, give yourself a break. Don't be in a rush to do too much at one time. It's also good to do this for Jesus. I…
  • First, stop beating yourself up. I started out at 277! And I'm 51 yrs. old. It is harder to lose when your older. I am down to 245 now. It has taken me a while to get to that point. Make up your mind to apply yourself, even it it's little steps. Little steps are better than nothing at all. Do NOT be in a hurry to do this.…
  • I need to lose 110 lbs. I have been working on weight loss but always seem to hit a back slide and gain back. I need more commitment and discipline. I loath tracking the food but realize it is necessary for my personal accountability and progress. So here I am getting ready to plunge in again tomorrow morning. I do great…
