Well I did it, yes I caved!  I only had three bites of "her" freaking Potato salad, first time in literally 3 years & it's literally making me feel sick. Never again! I'm disappointed in myself that I freaking caved! Lesson learned though! Feeling like this isn't worth it!

@Umpa, I knew I liked you for a reason!:) and it's funny how long it takes the mind and body to catch up with each other (if they ever do!:) but once they do, look out! (And besides, you know me, I'm always up for a good argument with the olé mother n law! Especially about f2s!) @Tony yep I'm a suckered for cinnamon! Love the stuff!

Thanks yall!:) it was super hard at first! I couldn't tell if it was me or her! & seriously...I just got "tired" of eating like that night after night! I figured if she wasn't gonna change I was! She got so fed up with me & me not eating the pancakes she used to make for me every morning! I just plain out told her, to not make breakfast for me anymore. I'm a grown woman I can fend for myself. That and I'm a tad bit stubborn too:)

Hey guys! I'm sorry I'm not on here that much. Been kinda crazy lately! But just wanted to inform yall...that, even though I still cannot see the difference!:( I've gone from a size 22 to a size 16 petite! I guess the jeans don't lie, huh? I guess like anything, it just takes dicipline, which once you and your body get used to it, really isn't hard at all. Cause the mother n law still buys donuts every week and by god, they sit there and go bad every week!  I've just gotten into such a routine now that stuff doesn't even phase me anymore. Yes I still have the cravings "every now and again," but not as bad and I b know how to deal with it. So, I'm getting there! I'm hoping this time next summer (now that I know it takes time for my body to adjust to everything!:) to at least be in a size 12 jeans? Wish me luck!:) I'm on a roll!

Thanks guys! @Umpa, you know me to well! Haha... Happy Mothers Day everybody!!

Hey Jacki! Let's talk about outta control eating, shall we?! I used to be the w o r s t! Most of yall know my story, so I'll spare ya! But whatever the mother n law cooked, I ate! And believe you me! It was not Fat to Skinny related! (&she even got the book!) Well, one day...The light came on! She and I "bicker" alot anyway, & seriously all she's gonna do is throw a fit anyway! So I decided one day just to start picking my battles.  She's never gonna change the way she cooks, but I can change! WoW....lol, enlightening, huh? But for me, I wasn't a confrontational person, until... (&well just leave it at that!:-) but once I realized I had the power of change, it was on! I find myself eating better and making wiser choices. And also, I keep a journal of everything she cooks and everything I eat. Helps me alot. Sorry for the novel! Lol...

Hey guys! How's everyone? I'm doing good. Reality has sunk in and I'm starting to fight the right battles with the mother n law. I'm making the right food choices and my jeans are starting to get looser! Seems like it took a lifetime to sink in, but alas, I'm back.
