Just found your thread. I will be in next month! But, I will, if you all don't mind check in with you and support you efforts. Having fought with weight all my life (since 16) I know how much effort and determination it takes to stay with it and how having a great support group helps sooo much. Good luck to all of you. It will be fun to see who wins all that great fabric. But even better to see all those pounds drop off to never never land.

My feeling is why should I pay soooo much for protein powder when I could make my own and reap the benefits of yocheese(greek yogurt) By the way I make my own yogurt so I know exactly what I am getting.
Did you know diet anything soda ect is bad for you because even though it has no calories your body still sees it as sugar and stores it as sugar making it harder to lose weight.

No, I did not know that about diet soda. As you guys as my witness and my support, I will not drink anymore diet soda. It is water or cucumber water for me! It can only benefit me if I give that Pepsi up. Done. I do not need anything else being stored on/in my body. Thank you for that information!

Thanks trupeach, I use lemon slices just as you do the cucumber, which I shall try of course!
Thank you Missy for your kind words, good luck to you too, and my very best wishes for your program.
No walking today, had to work, maybe tomorrow, I have given up sugar in my tea and have decided on smaller portions, no cake or biscuits, puddings etc, trying to drink more water and fresh fruit for snacks, I am NOT going to give up my food for a fad diet as in the past this has only resulted in gaining the weight back on! I find it difficult keeping focused! Since having my kids I have always struggled to keep my weight down, haven't fitted into my jeans in nearly 25 years so I am under no illusions here but I sure as hell am going to give it my best shot along with all you wonderful ladies!!
Have another lemon and ginger tea on me!
