  • Wine is my weakness. The calories add up way too fast! I didn’t have anything today since I had a class this evening. It felt good but one day is just that. Thanks for heading up this group!

  • I went to the health-food store and bought Aloe pills. I take those and it keeps my body in check. It fuels the body's metabolism naturally. Even pregnancy women can take it, which doesn't come recommended with most slimming aids. JUST CHECK WITH YOUR OB IF YOU ARE ONE OF THESE PEOPLE... That statement is only to make a…

I wait 48 hours before even bothering to…

  • Chipotle. We just happened upon the stats. Yea, everybody knows sour cream and the tortilla is terrible. You're looking at 700-1500 calories. You're in good shape if you stick with lettuce, a few beans, corn and salsa. You think ordering something called a "vegetarial burrito bowl" would be ok? No. They slap guacamole on…
