Umpa makes a great point! :) Groceries are spendy and if ya'll aren't eating the carby stuff she'll not only be spending a lot on food that gets thrown away, she'll be spending a lot of time preparing it!

Good for you guys for deciding to take a stand! You'll feel SO much better. I have a lot of crud happening in my life that i can't control and I made the same decision you did. This is DEFINITELY something I can control and the only one that can sabotage it is me!!! You can do this!

You are so true Doug! I haven't looked at the scale in a while, seems we all tend to do that when we get off track? But much to my amazement, I started out at 240, and now down to 193. Not much, but it's better than where I was at! So far, I have been doing good! My husband was laughing at me ;Dnot really laughing, but, my 18yr. old gave me the idea of cutting up celery into little baggies cause we have a mini fridge in our room ;Dwhenever I feel like "venturing" where I shouldn't, I go for the celery! Cause my way of thinking is, if I don't go into the kitchen where all the bad stuff is, I won't eat it. So far it's been working!
Also, she made dinner this past week, with of course the meat, and of course with the sides one night she made those small white potatoes, didn't even touch them. And she made some kind of beef tips with rice, didn't even eat the rice. So far I'm doin good! ;D
