My doctor told me losing weight is 90% diet and 10% exercise.

I like Sara Lee 100% whole wheat bread.

Like - as long as I have a proper vacation some time during the year. Road trips

I have done fast-paced laps inside my house when close to my goal. My dogs follow me. They think it is a game.

I failed to notice a car at the air pump at a convenience store and I backed into it with my big SUV. That is embarrassing enough. However, as I was exchanging info with the other driver, four of my co-workers showed up and came running over to see what happened. I had to confess I was talking on the phone and didn't look…

Eggs got a bad rep several years ago because they do contain cholesterol. What I've heard from medical professionals is the cholesterol your body produces is the problem, not the cholesterol in food. The fats and processed foods (or genes) are more likely a culprit for people with high numbers. And.. I eat at least one egg…

After my husband quit smoking, his doctor said he could gain 30 lbs and it would still be healthier than smoking.

Too bad you don't like tea. It is my savior. I enjoy it iced or hot with sweet & low. Sometimes I add French Vanilla or Pumpkin Spice creamer to my hot tea. I use loose tea or bags, no bottled stuff. I rarely have sodas anymore.

I started drinking coffee about 3 years ago. I still can't drink black coffee. I need sweet n' low and a tbsp of liquid creamer and maybe a splash of skim milk. Those 35-40 calories make all the difference. My version may negate the health benefits, but I'll bet it is still better than soda.

I fell victim to the six small meals per day theory. I found it tedious and I was not losing weight. I am trying to eat only when I am truly hungry while staying within my calorie goal. Sometimes there are snacks, sometimes not.

Eating breakfast at breakfast time made me hungrier at lunch. Now I eat breakfast when I am hungry, around 10:00, and eat lunch and dinner later. It is really helping me stick to my calorie limit. A nice bonus is I don't have the evening and late night binges anymore.

Homemade chili

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Have seen it hundreds of times and it still makes me laugh.

I hate to hear Oprah say anything. Ironic that she has made her fortune telling the rest of us how to live our lives, yet she can't get a handle on her own demons.

Roller skating (not blading)- now that's irrational. Why do I still love to do it after all these years?

Last summer, I finally gave up on most of my goal clothes and sold them at a garage sale. Some still had the tags. One dress didn't sell and I kept it rather than donating because I love it. It has never been worn. It was a little tight when I bought it. Now it doesn't fit at all. I'm going on a cruise in December. I would…

Yeah - if you need to slow down, let off the gas a bit. Accomplishes the same thing without angering everyone around you.

I had to read this thread just to verify the subject matter. With the subject "old nuts", it could have gone in several directions.
