@CherylBryant Fantastic! Its a good scheme. SMY

@CherylBryant<br>with the right tool you are sure to get the job done right, go for it!

@supermumyay Yes, I am sure I am on the right track! Thanks.

@Samsarah<br>I am using muscles that I am not sure I have worked on ever! I am sore but getting stronger every go around.

@CherylBryant You should see results really quickly with your new regime. Worth a bit of pain to achieve your goal.

@supermumyay thanks for the support friends!

YOU GO GIRL. Unfortunately the reasons I eat are anything but being hungry. It's that binge eating that gets me. The whole time I am stuffing snack crackers, I am telling myself to stop. At least now I am aware I'm binging. I too am on the way to a healthy weight. This accountability thing is great for me.

Carbs really are the things that do the damage, especially trying to lose weight and if you don't do loads of exercise, when you need them.<br>As everyone is an individual you need to find which carbs do the damage for you.<br>For me it is pasta and bread and I have to go very easy on fruit... Good Luck

@fillychick96 Yes, I would rather have a slice of toasty baguette with olive oil or butter than <br> a handful of nuts or carrots or olives. I just need to retrain my thinking. I have gotten off track in the last 5 years and the weight has crept up on me. I did some analysis and if I do 30-45 minutes of cardio 6 days a week and cut out 250 calories a day, in a year (theoretically) I will reach my goal weight. Doable, don't you think? Of course, I want to get to my goal weight sooner than that! I definately have some craving and blood sugar issues, so like you, fruit and simple carbs are a challenge for me. My new mantra is, "Is the choice I am about to make going to make me happier in the long run or just happier for the moment and which do I prefer?" Good luck to you, too!
