HISSY FIT COMMITTEE
Did something or someBODY, tick you off today? Yesterday? A year ago? Lol, (talk about holding a grudge hey?!) Kids have hissy fits all the time! The only difference between us and them is we can't sprawl out all over the floor of the grocery store, kicking, screaming and crying, without being escorted out the front door…

Discouraged by weight fluctuation??
I don't mean to beat a dead horse here, but I just wanted to re-address the issue of weight fluctuation. It is a concern for a lot of ppl and I hope this sheds a little light for ya. :wink: If you're someone who weighs yourself daily, then you know that our weight is hardly static. If you weighed 130 before you went to bed…

My theory..........lol

I have come to the following conclusions(LOL): 1. Make healthy (or healthiER) food choices. Period. Thats a no brainer. 2. Don't wait until you are…

Hi Everyone! I signed up just the other day and have found that this site is BY FAR the easiest to manage, lol. Its simple and straight forward, just the way it should be. Counting calories is hard enough without having to figure out some confusing weight tracking site. I have put off watching what I eat for so long…
