Fast Food; are there any heathy choices?

We absolutely will not go to McNastys. We are not huge fans of BK or Wendy's but will go there if we have no other options. Would love to hear why you…

not weightlossrelated. about adult friendships
I have been living in the same place for 6 years. We are active in our church and community but I feel like I have no friends. Maybe I have a screwed up view of what friends are suppose to do.

starting in June
I just got the book from the library. I have hit a plateau. Upping my calorie intake did a little but not much to get things moving but it was short-lived. I have been stuck at 156-160 for a while now and it's driving me nuts!! I am a little leery of doing this because I was an anorexic in high school. Glad to find a group…
