  • Count out your chips. I think 12 is a serving. You can buy the snack size then you do not have to deal with left overs. Use ground chicken breast, if you want meat. Season it with onions, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and chili powder. I add a little water because the chicken breast is dry. You can also add some salsa…

  • Ok so if you KNOW sugar is a weakness for you then do not keep it in the house. It would be like people in an alcoholic or drug addict's family keeping their drug or liquid of choice because "there are other people in the house that use it."

  • Hi Atlmom... I guess the first question you might want to ask yourself is do you believe you deserve to BE attractive and healthy? It seems when people start to give you positive feedback you begin to self-sabatoge. Seems like you have turned those words "Baby fat" into a friend and don't want to let it go. It was a term…
  • Wow sounds like you are going through a tough time! Also seems like you might have a little caregiver fatigue. Yes you do need to be nice to yourself! But not with food...that is not being nice to yourself. Call a friend and plan a coffee or tea date. If you don't have a live support system - - get one. There should be…
