UndercoverBariatricGal 167 Posted May 25, 2013 I just wanted to come back in and say I'm 100% back on track and proud to say the 3 pounds I put back on are now off with an extra pound. I know from time to time we will slip up but it cant be everyday. Carbs are the devil! Say no to carbs and things will work in your favor or so it least it seems lol 2 DanaL and pattycake71963 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
