I'm still a work in progress but I can honestly say "No one can do it for you!" we all got here one mouthful at a time and the only way to lose it it to stop eating so much. That being said, this is a great site with great support from fellow food lovers and weight loss adventurers. Enjoy your journey and discover how…

Congratulations! I am so happy for you!! It won't be long and you'll be dancing...tell Ed he'd better get plenty of rest so he can keep up with you! I wish I could see your doctor's face when you see him next-tell him to never underestimate a woman on a mission (especially one with such a sweet hubby!). Be sure to treat…

That way I get rid of my "whatever" mood AND burn calories instead of eat them! I'm usually so tired after I forget about the urge to eat.

My favorites are the emerald almonds or almonds and walnut packs for 100 calories or reduced fat sargento string cheese at 50 calories a stick.

I LOVE this site and have found much wisdom and guidance here. I have a lot left to lose but I know I can make it because I have read so many inspirational stories here. My best advice…

Don't worry- the surgery is a breeze! When you get there, they will have you get into a gown and put footy socks on. They' ll have you get into a bed and take your vitals and listen to your heart and lungs. When they're ready for you, they' ll take you to surgery and a few moments after they put a mask on you, you' ll be…
