I used to work form home a lot. I feel your pain! Stay OUT of the kitchen my friend!

Looking good! Keep up the hard work.

Way to go! You have a lot to be proud of! It looks like a dramatic change and you look very happy!

Congrats! This is a decision you will NEVER regret. Keep going, it gets easier!

Tonight I had Quinoa Pasta with Garbonzo beans in a tomato/Jamaican Jerk sauce. I mashed a little of the chickpeaas to give it some thickness and it was heavenly.

The bump thing is so that the thread stays in the top recent threads and doesn't fall off the front page. My secret weapon foods are peanut butter and apples.

I'm with the unsweetened vanilla crowd, but I'm not as choosy, I buy whole foods organic if I can, then blue diamond or even silk.

I'm in! I'm trying to get rid of sugar in my diet too. Is fruit sugar acceptable? That's the only sweet I'm going to allow myself. And I'm going to be off the artificial sweeteners too.

@ missbaker, you look like anne hathaway

Yes, this sums it up nicely!

I just want to say thank you to everybody who offered kind and encouraging words to me. I kind of felt embarrassed to be starting over and even heavier than I was before, but we all have to start somewhere, right? This is really a great community! I was shocked at how many people responded who were at their own personal…

A-MEN, sister! Together almost ten years now, and it took some time for me to get to the point of realizing that you can never change what another person thinks about certain things, and no matter how wrong they are (wink), you just have to let it be.

You look so happy in your recent pic. You should be so proud of yourself. Way to be, man.

Woo hoo! You look beautiful! Congratulations!

I have been looking at Appetite for Reduction, a vegan cookbook that I love, for inspiration. You might find something there you like. The author puts the nutritional info with each recipe.

Another vegan here! I'm back to MFP after a long time away, and a long time away from being vegan too. I'm going to send out some friend requests. :)

I'm not really new but I haven't been on here in almost a year. Friend request sent. :)

Wow, I wish my husband talked to me like this! You're the sweetest guy around! Thanks! I feel better about everything right now!

I love Carribbean food!!! If it was me, I'd be ordering a big ole plate of callaloo! It's like greens, but the island version. Also some jerk chicken with rice and peas. I always make jerk chicken at home wtih sauce that I bring home from Jamaica from my favorite restaurant in Negril called Three Dives. Yum Yum!! You're…

If I were you I'd use the Zumba calorie website, I think you're probably burning more calories than you know. I just got a heart rate monitor and I just burned 648 calories in 55 minutes doing the Zumba Live Fitness DVD.

Good for you!! That's gotta be a great feeling!

I just got them and they are easy and fun! Plus you burn a ton of calories and they give you like five different DVDs to chose from so it doesn't get boring. Good luck!

Amazing!! Great job!!

Congratulations!!! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness. How exciting for you, yo are married and yet you get to experience it all over with all the pomp and circumstance in September. Enjoy!

pizza for sure

I'll take the ads! I like the fact that this is such an amazing resource and it's free!! I just ignore them unless it's something I'm interested in buying anyway.

I used to look up my calories counts on calorie king but their site is a pay site so I looke d for free ones and this one looked the best, so I joined.

Just glad to be alive on this beautiful hot summer day
