One scare that I can recall that hurt me so much was We were some place that had a person counter..them barns that turn as a person walks through it...well I really wanted to go but as I started to get to it I knew I wouldnt fit ...so I had to lie to the kids and say I didnt want to go...my husband went with them.....I sat and waited for them to finish wanting to cry.... again hugs to YOU !!!

  20. I'm very lucky my hubby supports me...he has never come to a appt with me....he is a lil over weight but has lost 30 on his own by not having as many sweets in the house....he is also trying to help one of our children who is over weight to think and make better choices
  21. Its like pretzels for me....Im not sure what it is about them that triggers me....but as soon as I see some in the house I fight the urge to snack.....so I sure dont eat any...during the summer I did get a lil bag one day ...I knew I was walking my butt off every day and could get away with a small bag.....but oh no......staying away from saltly snacks for the winter
