  • I am here to start over again

    Well I have made up my mind to start over and really get things in order this time to lose weight I am tired of making excuses as to why I quit or why I can't start and I am tired of saying I will start tomorrow .......I have decided to start tonight and not wait till tomorrow.... I have been in my kitchen doing some rearanging to make this easier for me.... I have alot to lose but I know it can be done I have seen too many people on here do it... I will update more tomorrow night I know I will make it through tomorrow just fine...

      I find if I say I am going to wait until morning in the morning I have a new excuse. You have a great attitude!

            Thanks everyone for the wonderful welcome...... I have done great so far today I am getting ready for lunch now not sure whta I will have but It will be something induction friendly.....My idea of putting the cakes up were I can't reach them has really worked...I am surprised how easy this has been today ....I guess just setting my mind to it is making it easier I haven't wanted anything that I shouldn't have....

            I need to some up with some veggie idea because I don't like veggies very much at all .....Well I better get going and get something for lunch

                        welcome back. SO what did you buy? Jicama has a sweet taste sort of like a potoato crossed with an apple.

                          Karen my absolute favorite is jicama shredded and cooked like hash browns with cheddar cheese for breakfast! I've only found it at our local whole foods market, the local food stores in my area don't carry it and 1 even had trouble ordering it. If you have an area where there is a larger hispanic community you might find it there. It's sometimes called a "mexican yam bean" (don't know why).

                          Good luck with your fresh new start!

                            Sparkles I don't know what part of VA you are in but if you have a Wegmans nearby they should have jicama and I believe I have seen it in Food Lions when I amdown there.
