WEll im gunna go watch some of the boob tube!! Have a great night all!

Hey all!!! Pam well said!! I think finding this group has been the BEST thing that could have happened. I dont know where I would be without all these wonderful people's support and encouragment and most importantly TRUTH!! i have learned that this is not a miracle and there will be ups and downs and where there are downs its ok!! Just move through them and get back on track. I totally think syaing what you have eaten is the best way to be accountable, otherwise we would all be eating more and more of the wrong things and hiding them. Im thankful I know that everyone is saying the truth and dont judge!!

YAY Mo..... Onderland.... You are rockin it girly...... Keep it up!!! Jes, I didnt say chili.... I said Chillis hahahaha.. I ate a quesadilla, rice and I drank Dr. Pepper with my straw lol.. I was goin a little nutz I think lol.. I sure am payin for it tonight tho... 3 months without a soda and then drinking 2.. UGH bubbles jacked me up..... I dont think the extra sour cream and quacamole helped either lmao... Ok so now that I have come clean on my ravigness tonight lol... Ahhh I feel better lol...
