You'll see you can do it. If you are ever bored, read some of the blogs and you will see that you are not alone. I go back and read my first blog in January and am constantly amazed at the difference in myself. It takes a while, but you can do this and be successful, like your inspirational daughter!

Agree...cumin would work well for this!

My moment was the 1300 calories for the Pecan Chicken salad at TGI Friday's one day. I ordered it thinking salad was the least fattening choice...even knowing pecans were probably high in calories. Looked it up later, and it was almost the whole day's worth of calories! Amazing what a little knowledge can do... I now check…

It is delicious!! Try it...you'll like it.

Thx everyone... I'll get another one out there this weekend...creativity doesn't flow as freely after working all day! Emma...you never know who might show up....

Thanks to my little fan club, Fzy, thisis4me & Kirstie! Roy...you are absolutely right! I should not discriminate against dudes... I'll see what I can do to correct that!

I do a couple things...I'll drink a glass of water & maybe have a granola thin or something like that with it to kill that craving. I will also do something to distract myself, vacuum, take out the trash, read a book, anything... If it just doesn't go away, then eat something healthy not your normal snacks (mine was a box…

Love the Two Fat Ladies! I watched just because they were so entertaining!

kappyblue...I concur by the way...love Paula but of course, I'm a Southern gal, so I think it is one of our laws...

1st Southern Cooking is so bad...that is hurts...I get it..but sometimes with pleasure comes a little pain, right? Scott..don't accidently get a little drool in the dirt or what a muddy mess!
