Try to contact a church in your area. They are there for you. We were there some months back and they were such a blessing. They have food and other things that you may need. We will keep you in our prayers...

I alway impressed upon my daughter the difference between right and wrong. Drinking under-age is wrong (doesn't mean it won't happen), using a fake ID is wrong (doesn't mean it won't happen), drinking and driving is dangerous or deadly (doesn't mean it won't happen). If you will truely be there for her no matter what you…

Congrats!!!! That is way cool... keep up the great work!!

I have lost 10 lbs since joining this site... Track the food and exercise... made all the difference for me... Best of luck to you on your journey....

Best to you... this tracking really made a difference for me....

WOW!!!!! Way to go!!! You should be VERY proud :happy:

You must address those cravings .... this is a way of healthy eating and not a "Diet", you did exactly the right thing .... have what you desire in moderation that fits into you calories... And a small piece of chocolate with a craving .. will make you feel good if you can fit it into your calories ... I treat myself to 1…

Best of luck to you... You are in the right place... don't be afraid to ask... and tell... Get some goals in.. (little ones first)... Take b4 pictures... you will want to see them later.... :happy: Log everything.... and... don't expect everything to change overnight ... One day at a time......

bumping too...

Use this place for what it will do.... You will make friends... get advice... get motivation.... learn things you never knew.... help and motivate others.... Take pictures along the way ... you will be shocked!!! Best of luck on your journey.....

I make all my favorite recipes and 1/2 white flour and 1/2 wheat flour, works great... unless you are wanting NO white flour at all. Lots of good recipes on the web... Have fun with the wheat !!!!

You are not alone...... I often feel the desire to eat whatever and not exercise.... I just know that once I make this a way of life and not a task... it will be so much better. I know I will feel better every day. Hang in there... you're doing great and it will get easier...

This same idea works for me... I have breakfast ... mid morning about 100 cal snack... lunch and mid afternoon about 100 cal snack.. dinner and a little treat after dinner while relaxing... mmmm small piece of dark chocolate... :) Stay Blessed...
