I have changed a few things for the good.

My husband and I have both started watching what we eat a little more. We've been eating a lot more salads and sometimes have oatmeal for supper (that helps our cholesterol). Lately, instead of ordering french fries I've been ordering a small salad. And all of our treats here in the house are sugar-free. We still have to be cautious with the sugar-free stuff because it doesn't mean that they're fat-free. We're working on getting some exercise in too.

Good luck and thoughts to all of you who are trying to be healthier. I do great at home, but really crash when we go out to eat and at work.

Katrina (a co-worker) and I are talking about having the lap band done. I just haven't built up courage to talk to Harold about it. I sent an email to find out if my insurance covers it and haven't heard back, yet.

Then, I want to have a breast reduction!

Okay Sandy....tell me about the lap band. Does it require surgery?

My cousin actually went to Mexico to have the lap band surgery done last year and I think she's really happy with the results, although I haven't seen her to judge for myself!

You are doing so well Kim! Good for you.

I'm on a low carb, high protein diet. It's tough getting used to because I love carbs, but I am getting used to it. I've lost about 10 or 11 pounds in about 4 or 5 months. I need too lose about 3 more pounds. I don't know what kind of maintenance diet I'll go on then.

I'm not getting enough fruits and veggies. I think I'm going to look into the V8 fusion drinks.
