I think we all reaction differently when our children leave and we are all entitled to our own feelings. When our older kids reached teenage years, my husband and I decided that maybe we'd have just one more child. I had 3 and he had 3 already. Well, we hit the Golden Jackpot because when I was just a couple months shy of…

My lunch today was grilled chicken breast strips, tomatoes and mozzarella with balsamic vinegar reduction, and roasted veggies with a touch of olive oil and lots of red pepper flakes, garlic powder and a bit of salt. SOOOOOO full of flavor!

Thank you.

I heated one whole wheat wrap (130 calories) until the bubbled and turned slightly brown, then I smeared 1 T of peanut butter on it (105 calories) and I added one bite size of dark chocolate Dove (42 calories.) Then wrapped it all up and chowed down. SUPER good and 277 calories. Granted it may not be super healthy, but…

I think you should leave both and take some much needed alone time and find out who you are and what makes you happy. You don't need a man to complete you or make you happy. That has to come from within. And the example you and your child's father are setting for you son does not seem healthy at all and kids repeat what…

Shredded rotisserie chicken on a whole wheat fajita (which I slightly browned first with Pam), then added lettuce, tomatoes, 1 T. light sour cream and a dash of hot sauce (from Louisiana. I just HAVE to. LOL). Super delicious.

Ok so I am trying to get a grasp on how this site works but I don't get notifications of when people reply. Is that the norm? Or do I need to click on this and that and the other to get notifications?

No you are not. I don't think the actual numbers are that important anyway. I think that we all share a common bond of wanting to get in better shape and that's why we are all here. For those of you with ugly attittudes, please stop it. That's just awful...and this is not the place to be bullying other people who are…

Hang in there! For what it's worth,I am struggling, too. I don't know what the problem is because I have the knowledge to know what I need to do, it's just putting that knowledge into action that has me stalling! I rarely sleep all night so I am thinking that the sleep deprivation may be a big part of the lack of focus to…

I think the fact that you're here is a great Step 1! I find that chatting with different people here and there is motivational. I'm sure you can knock off those 20 lbs...just a little work and a lot of determination. If you can handle nursing school, I'm sure you can handle anything, right? I hear it's brutal (from my…

Hi there! First of all I LOVE Doreen Virtue, Ph.D. -- she's awesome (I see she's listed in your "inspiration" section!) Second of all, I need to lose about 25 lbs and am slow to start, but have started so that's a plus! LOL I have kids, too, (5 to be exact, ages 23, 22, 14 and 5 month old twins) so my life is SUPER FULL!…

Thanks very much...I am glad someone can feel my pain! LOL The worst thing of all is that the work food isn't confined to the kitchen, it's on each floor (next to my desk most of the time so when I am able to decline all offers, the smell still reaches me!) Ughhh. Oh well, I guess we can do whatever we put our minds to…
