  • Sending you prayers for peace and comfort during this most difficult time!!! You have every reason to feel frustrated especially now, but try to be kind to yourself. You will probably feel better about your weight loss when you have the oppurtunity to get back to tracking your food and exercise.

  • YOU CAN DO THIS!! I know that you are pulled in a million directions with a husband and two small children because I have been there. I have three but the baby is now 16. My husband would often sabotage me but after many years of "TALKING" it out, he is somewhat supportive. MAYBE I have just become more determined. We are…

  • I have ALWAYS heard that if you wait until you feel thirsty, you are starting to get dehydrated. ALL experts and diet gurus that I have ever read or heard recommend a MINIMUM of 64oz per day (4 pints) I would try to drink at least that amount. I personally try to drink twice that, but I have a lot more weight to lose and…

  • You were right. We get to use our splurge calories on what we are craving and need!! My husband does the same thing with me. He makes it hard at times. I guess we both have to be re trained with our eating habits! lol Keep up the good work! : }

Of course that may sound harder for some like me who have to drink at least a gal of water a day! lol It has actually gotten easier and I often drink more than the required gal…

  • You are doing great! I too have a hard time with this because it goes against everything we have always been taught. I struggle to change my thoughts in regards to net calories. I agree that healthy nuts like almonds can be a good choice and the peanut butter is also a favorite. I really love nutella on a slice of toast.…

  • If you like sushi that is one option. I love Thai food and avoid the pad thai or anything with coconut milk. Stick with the vegetables and chicken. Maybe your server would have some suggestions. ENJOY!! I am envious right about now!

  • "LIGHTEN" UP FOLKS!! MODERATION is the KEY to it all! We may feel the urge or need to splurge sometimes and it is no crime. We just have to remember the BIG picture and get right back on track. If we can hit the restart button in the morning without a problem then where is the harm?? We have to live a little. I would…
