I'm really far away. I live in Oxon Hill, Md but I'm here to offer support if you need it.

Welcome and Good luck on your journey.

Everyone here as been great. Feel free to add me as a friend.

I switch my regular lettuce up with Field Greens and mix in a little baby spinach. I also buy the pre-cooked frozen shrimp and add that in with a little chopped egg white, red cabbage and on occasions sliced mushrooms.

I don't think he can go into starvation mode, but he may need to examine his diet a little closer.

I lost weight a few years ago with the help of a nutritionist and when I stopped seeing her, I gained all of the weight back and then some. I've been stuck for quite a while. I'm trying to get back on the horse (so to speak) and get some of my weight off. If you'd like a friend, send me a request and I'll happily accept.…

Welcome!! If you send a request; I'll happily accept! Good luck on your journey to a better you!

Woo Hoo!! I know that must've been a wonderful feeling. Good for you!!

I love the pomegranate :smile: .

I'm a big chobani fan. I usually add a little splenda because I find it a bit bitter. Haven't added granola yet and I'm not sure why b/c I really like granola.

I recently joined planet fitness because they're cheap and close to my house but I that Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission offers classes to those who live in PG and Montgomery County. I'll do my best to help motivate you.

Good Luck!!
