  • you can add me as a friend, i would be happy to support you, i need the support too ... i can't get off the 150 mark no matter what i do. i stopped doing the daily check-in with mfp because i got so depressed with never losing a pound & trying so hard. the last few weeks have been an orgy of carbs & sugar & beer &…
  • i'm a beer drinker LOL so i'm sunk ... but i really love vodka & club soda. it's a great drink, especially in the summer ... really light & refreshing. add a wedge of lemon or lime to it. depending on the size of the drink & the amount of vodka in it, there's generally less than 100 calories per drink ... but that kind of…

Seasoning mixes, those yummy Better Crocker scalloped potatoes, I stay away from all that stuff now. There's lots of things I used to eat that I stay away from now, just because of getting…
  • Hi, you can add me, I want to meet friends who will be supportive & with whom I can offer support... I want to lose at least 10lb, I've lost 10 since this summer (my profile pic) but I still have clothes that are too tight to be comfortable...I'm glad Beckyrae invited me here, it has really motivated me. Look forward to…
