  • What’s with the eagerness to criticize, make someone feel badly and judge? That’s not helpful to someone who asked a simple question and was trying to figure out an issue. I thought we were all in this together as a weight loss team. After reading some comments I am perplexed about why the finger pointing and talking to me…

Here are some tips that may help. 1) Brown some onions and garlic in Pam and add to veggies along with a tad of olive oil and sea salt. 2) Throw in red pepper flakes & rice wine vinegar to jazz it. up.

  • Hello! I'm brand new to the site and the group. I chose Pin Up Girls as my group because you guys are obviously supportive and because when I typed in the word "elegant" for Group search, guess which one popped up? I am determined to lose these pounds that have been weighing me (sorry for the really bad pun) down for a few…
