  1. Thanks!! Heh. A diet cherry coke a day is my ONE crutch/guilty pleasure. I was vegan for years and still don't really eat red meat (I've never cared for the taste of it) but eat chicken and fish regularly now. I don't drink (ever) or smoke and I have a HUGE aversion to salty food (same deal as with red meat- it just tastes awful to me) so I'm not feeling a huge push to give up the only real "treat" I consume. My biggest challenge is to get more active which is what I'm most focused on at the moment. I know when I exercise more I tend to default to water to rehydrate so my soda consumption decreases so I'm expecting that to help me organically cut back on it. I am soooooo tired this afternoon. It's taking everything I have not to fall asleep at my desk (which is REALLY bad when the owner of the company sits next to you!) I was hoping that I'd gain some energy instead of losing it! I need a nap! I was just thinking this morning to post and see if others had noticed an increase in their energy levels and if they knew about when they noticed it happening. I think the admins finally got my account working! Fingers crossed that when I hit "post" this really posts!

  2. Melissa I used to say the same thing until I realized that my butt is the big thing that's chasing me and I NEED to run from it! I'm not sure what kind of lack of support that you get at home, but I may have a similar situation. My husband and I don't have children and my cooking is something that he really loves and I cook like a southern woman should and I love it too LOL! He has never been wild about the idea of going on a "diet" and neither am I really. He doesn't really need to lose weight so if I go on a diet, he does too. With only the two of us it would be very difficult for just one of us to be on a diet. So my solution has been to keep on cooking the way I always have but I have started cutting my portions. I am eating the same yummy foods but cutting out seconds and I'm using a smaller plate to fool my eyes and brain. I can imagine that if you're cooking for a husband and children it would be nearly impossible for you to go on a traditional "diet" by yourself so this may work for you as it has for me. Any way that you do it though, just do it! Don't give up and do this for yourself
