OMG! Finally, someone who understands!!! :) my biggest weekness is CARBS... Pasta, rice (I love fried rice, dirty rice, mexican rice...), bread is not so bad, I don't eat much of it and when I do, it's multi grain, but I hate brown rice. I have switched to whole wheat pasta which is not so bad with enough sauce, but that probably defeats the purpose, right? Well, From one carb-lover to another, and to all of you, whatever you weakness is, good luck and I wish you all the bodies you want.

Welcome to the team. Its true moderation is the key. The only thing I have given up since joining SP is Soda.. Mostly b/c its just a waste of calories and I can't tolerate Diet soda.

Welcome welcome, Keep us posted on your progress and post any questions you should have. Their is always someone available to answer them :)

Glad to have you on board.

You don't have to give up on grains entirely, you know. Just switch to whole grains (brown rice, whole wheat breads and pastas, etc), and measure your portions.

Hi my name is Lilybeth but you can call me Lily. i just joined this great site. I am in my mid 20's and need to lose 35 pounds. It has been very hard for me, ever since i had my son. my metabolisium has crashed and gone somewhere (the unknown). My son is almost 14 months and i am still 10 pounds over what my strated weight was when i got pregnant. why is this so hard to lose? Well I started yesterday and i plan to keep it up. what has been the hardest for me is to let go of the rice, bread and so forth.

Can't wait to meet all of you. have a great day.
