Thanks! That's helpful :) I'm TTC #1 & I'm hoping that watching what DH & I are eating will help with the process

I know for diabetics sugar is sugar, it doesn't matter what source it comes from. Your body will still turn unused sugars into fat - however with the fruits you are also receiving the nutrients & fibres which they contain naturally. It is usually best to offset any sugar with protein to help your body process it

I recommend Pavlova (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/the-best-pavlova/) - I usually make it with Splenda at home & will even add a little bit of whipped cream (also with Splenda) - it is a nice light dessert. Personally I make mini-pavlovas or pipe the meringue into little dessert cups & then fill them with fresh or frozen…

OK - I LOVE SPINNING!!! OMG! It is so relaxing! DH was concerned that the wheel he got me for Christmas would end up as a dust collector but I really enjoy it! He asked me the other night when we're getting a sheep...lol I've dpun up a couple batts of roving from KnitPicks & a bit that I got from River City Yarn & last…

Go for it - you already know that the two of you can talk & laugh together (and that's important). If there's no chemistry then you just stay great friends

Hi, my name is Kim & ideally I have 60+ lbs to lose (although I'll willingly offer it up for adoption if someone really wants to give it a good home) :)

OMG That looks AMAZING!!! Do you have the recipe?!?!

I'm trying to figure out my spinning wheel. Right now I'm about half-way through a pair of fingerless crochet gloves ( http://the-arboretum.blogspot.ca/2010/12/idony-fingerless-gloves.html ) - I figured I'd share the pattern link that I found on Ravelry.

Hi, I'm Kim & I'm 31. I'm a little late in joining the group. I want/need to loose weight before my husband & I TTC (my dr told me he would put me on a diet to lose weight if I were to become pregnant at this weight). I'm not an active person & I'm mainly working on improving my diet. I'm also starting to follow Weight…

Sauteed in a little bit of olive oil & garlic... Zucchini brushed with olive oil, sprinkled with salt & grilled Brussel Sprouts sauted in bacon fat (Yes, I said Bacon fat - the real stuff) - with salt & pepper - it gives them a wonderful flavour (& you can cut it with a lighter oil so you are mainly using it for flavour)…

I don't keep much at home for cookies & candy as OH is diabetic & just as much of a food junkie as I am - if it's not there we won't eat it...but I have a similar challenge at work however there's a table set out within my unit at work (right by where we take all our paperwork & such) - I find it can be REALLY challanging…

You're human!!! We all have days where all we want to do is stuff our faces with chocolate cake, ice cream, pizza, lobster drenched in a pound of melted butter... whatever it happens to be that is what your craving - it doesn't mean we should give up - it just means that you look at that as a speed bump in the road & carry…
