I weigh every morning, but I only log my weight once a week on Thursday mornings (usually) to see actual losses or gains.

I don't think her goal is to make me fat, but my mom (a Type II diabetic) doesn't listen to anyone when they say they don't want sweets in the house. I don't live with her anymore, but on our family vacation she brought brownies and 2 types of ginger bread. A TON of refined sugar and carbs. Then she got ice cream and…

Tried this last night..... Soooo good

I stay away from refined sugars. I use honey...rarely. I found that when buying almost anything prepackaged, spaghetti sauce, peanut butter, soups, etc. things that don't need sugar have sugar added. I do continue to eat fruits because this is a healthy type of sugar, just don't go overboard : )

I also create my own recipes. It's not too bad once you get used to it.

you can add me, i do my best. my downfall is eating out and alcohol...

I didn't like to cook for a long time. I'm getting into it now, but the easiest way for me to do this is by making large meals during free time and pre-portioning it into multiple mason jars (my addiction). This makes it easy for me to just grab meals to go for the rest of the week : ) on the other hand you can you can eat…

I don't eliminate carbs for breakfast or lunch. My chiropractor has encouraged me to eat low carb and fat for dinner, but it's not off limits during the day time.

sounds good and I keep most of those ingredients on hand

making your own meals is definitely a way to lower sodium. I think that's partly why my blood pressure is been down lately because I've been making almost everything from scratch.

I'm also low on groceries but am going to use what I have since I'm out of money until Thursday. lol. currently sprouting black beans to eat later in the week.

I need new friends, you can add me.

my chiropractor (and some heart issues) got me into clean eating. he recommended the book nourishing traditions, and it is SO informative and helpful, has a ton of recipes as well. : ) http://www.amazon.com/Nourishing-Traditions-Challenges-Politically-Dictocrats/dp/0967089735

I'm in need of some good friends as well : )

Buffalo Wild Wings buffalo dry rub wings, omg. And Hardee's thick burgers... And Red Baron pizzas.

Hey guys, I'm interested in friends too : )
