  • That is a good idea! I should pull out my jeans from 3 years ago when I dropped to a 14 (which makes me look thin for my body type and height) for a while. Sadly I went back up 2 sizes being all stressy with work and life. Scale numbers don't matter.. its fitting in those cute jeans that matters. I am totally healthy, but…

  • Hey crenspirit, I think being on a "diet" is a bad idea, I agree with you. Watching portions and calories and staying away from junk food in general is key. Plus regular movement of course. Skinny cow has some really good ice cream actually. I wish my IBS/lactose intolerance allowed for them, I love ice cream.

  • Amanda- I bet the wedding was awesome, a candy buffet sounds like a lot of fun! If your hubby wont eat it I would give it away or just throw it out. I know that if it is in my house and I get strong cravings I will eat it. I'm bad that way to be honest. If hubby wants it put it in your most inconvenient cabinet out of…
