Oh, i know how ya feel... I enjoyed the supersize cokes everyday. But when I was expecting with my last child, 4 years ago, I quit and I definitely feel better.... I have a sip once in a great while... It's like I get this urge to have a drink and then after I take it, it's ugh yuck! But you are right.......

Now I eat about 5 oz. regular food twice a day with a couple 2 oz. snacks during the day. I eat mostly protein, mainly meat and nuts and eat about 50 carbs a day.

I need to keep a food diary so I can see exactly what I'm eating, how much, and when. Just out of curiosity.

Gastric bypass...that explains why you only ate a few bites the day we met.

And all this time I thought it was the stimulating conversation...

In general, I eat very healthy. No fried foods except occasional eggs cooked with a small amount of butter. We never drink sodas, koolaid, or that stuff. You won't find hardly any boxed or canned goods, and NO chips or snacks in our home. We eat mostly fresh fruits and fresh veggies and lean meats. So we eat pretty healthy. BUT... I need to lose 60 lbs. I've started walking a mile each day except sunday and I work out lots on our home gym thingy... but I need a jumpstart that doesn't involve those diet pills... Anythoughts??
I climb about six flights of stairs a night at work right now so I am on a roll and have gone down two sizes.I don't need a home gym I need the recliner when I get home.The beach however does help me relax.

It really bothers me that I am a bad witness to my community by being overweight.
MEN!!!!

It took me 6 months to lose 15 lbs and alot of hard work.

My hsband decides to lose a few lbs so he stops eating ice-cream and chips (every night) and walks 30 minutes a day and loses 22 lbs in 3 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
