I'm addicted to popcorn!
I absolutely love popcorn...I know people say that's not too bad, but I can't have to have it unless it's too my taste, which is very buttery... I've lost 75 lbs and have not/will not give up my popcorn. 425 calories later...I've still lost weight and been satisfied with my addiction....What won't you give up?

We became friends in 2001, over a conversation about religion. I'm a christian, but was extremely discouraged by the church and hadn't gone…

With every 5 lbs lost I freak out...
I weigh myself pretty much daily, however I only post my weight loss monthly. With every 5 lbs lost, I freak out, thinking that "this is it" , I'm not going to lose any more weight. I'm going to forever be fat. However, every month, another 5 lbs comes off and I sigh with relief. I, then, freak out once again, that "this…
