    I've signed up again. Guess you're stuck with me for your Taboo Tuesday hints. And, if you have anything you'd like me to post on Tuesdays, give me a PM with it. I know there are other ideas out there that I haven't thought of. Healthy eating everyone.

    I am down a good amount for January:-) Not enough to win, but down is down:-). My school had a 2 hour delay today due to snow and ice. So I have a little time to relax before work. Healthy eating to everyone. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Drink your water. That is something I need to work on. I have a hard time getting my water in during the day. Due to the kids I work with and the set up of the classroom if I want a drink I need to leave my kid I am working with, and my drink is behind a gate and on top of a cabinet. Some days I go until lunch without drinking. I know I need to work on this.

    This is my first time doing this. I joined a weight loss program Jan 1st. I have changed my eating habits, and am drinking lots and lots of water. 96 oz daily. I thought I would drown the first few days. haha As of Jan. 31st I am down 12 lbs. and have lost 14 inches. I get measured once a month too. I detoxed from sugar the first week and had a terrible headache. I finally got over it, and I'm doing okay now. I'm looking forward to all the input here on this board. We can do this!

    If i can be nosey, what weight loss program did you join? That is great to lose 12lbs and 14 inches in one month. I know I have been told to drink 50% of my weight in water to lose weight. IF I stick to that, I have been succussful in losing some weight. I know for my health sake I need to cut out as much sugar as possible. I just can't seem to drink my tea unsweetened. I am trying, I do use splenda now in my tea instead of regular sugar, but lately I have been hearing alot about the artificial sweetners being worse for you than regular sugar.

    I am trying to stay away from sodas, I have not had one at work for 2 weeks, only a sprite at home. As soon as they are gone I wont buy any more. For that I only have me to blame.
