Need Tips for Maintenance
If anyone had told me last February that I would be at my goal weight by December, I would not have believed them! However, now I'm scared. It has been a lot of hard work, and at 48 I'm tired of yo-yo dieting. I did it right this time with exercise and healthier food choices and portion control. I want to stay this way!…

Did I REALLY burn that many?
I went outside at 9:30 a.m. and mowed, edged and weed-ate the lawn and came in at 12:30. I had 3 20 oz G2's and tons of water but only took breaks long enough to swig more liquid.

Hubby Needs BIG Reward
:happy: Six months ago I started my fitness/weight loss program, and at the same time my hubby of 22 years gave up alcohol (okay, it was ugly, the kids and I basically attacked and gave him an ultimatum). Three months ago he changed jobs and is out of state with one of our two kids still at home. We talk 2-3 times or more…
