  • Next month will be 8 years since I quit. Best decision of my life!!!! I quit when my dad got sick (he had a triple bypass at age 50). The first 6 months were the roughest. I bought a new coat and purse because of the smell. I will never forget about a year after I quit I apologized to my husband (who never smoked) because…
  • My new coworker is very thin and sits and eats junk food ALL day long. Today she had a box of cookies and offered me some and I politely declined. A proud moment for me because I am very into cookies lol. She also had my favorite candy (flavored tootsie rolls) and was offering to share. Before, I would have been all over…
  • I like brown sugar in my oatmeal too. I have just had a lot of people tell me honey is better than sugar...and I just wondered. I make toast with peanut butter, banana and honey and it is so good too. Very very filling!!! :)
  • You can still watch your calories for sure while pregnant and actually it is recommended!!!! Exercise is good while you are pregnant also, but you should really consult with your OBGYN before starting anything like that. Congrats to you!!!! A new baby is always exciting!
  • My excitement happened lastnight. I have family from outta state visiting. We all went to Olive Garden. I was not perfect, but I was alright :) And my uncle paid for everything, so it was all free to us! lol. Today I am working the morning, then I have to swing by the post office to get a box to send out something a friend…
  • This is my second time losing also. I lost almost 60lbs about 3 years ago and gained it all back PLUS some!!!! I keep looking at old pictures from when I lost it all. We will get there and beyond again! I know we will :)
  • I sent you a friend request. Positive-ness is much needed on our weight loss journies. No matter how big or small they are!!!! It is cold here in Ohio too!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do we burn calories from shivering??? LOL! We had a Halloween Party last weekend...a positive thing - with all the CRAP I ate, including candy we had…
  • I am from Logan, OH, about an hour SE of Columbus, Ohio. Lived in the same general area - Central/SE Ohio - all my life, hoping someday and my husband move to the Carolinas, because I absolutely love it there. Ohio is okay sometimes too :)
  • I LOOOOOOVE PB. I love it on toast, apples, bagles....Mmmmm....I also sometimes put a teaspoon of it in my oatmeal....reminds me of my fav kinda cookies....PB no bakes....*sigh* lol. I like it for breakfast cause it seems to keep me full longer. It is one of those foods that makes me feel content and happy :)
  • Chocolate is my weakness!!!!! I found that the chocolate rice cakes fix the craving nicely :) And I can eat 2 or 3 and be good. Most everyone I know is like "How can you eat those rice cakes?" Hey, I'm desprate for a sweet treat...all my ultimate faves are calorie killers...got get my fix somehow! :)
  • Congrats to you!!!
  • Mmmmmmmm.....this sounds really good. My hubby wouldn't eat it but it would great for a couple days for me!!!! Gonna be buying the stuff to make this!!!!!
  • I lost a large amount of weight a couple of years ago. Until I hit my 30 lb mark it wasn't physically noticeable to most people, people who hadn't seen me in a while would notice, but not anyone who seen me everyday. I could tell in my clothes and stuff though.
