To Stacey in BC:  Hey another canadian!  I am in Manitoba.  Your post was read.  Someone wanted you to know that your angel is in a super great place and you won't ever have to worry about her as she is in the most loving arms.  Breast feeding was a great way for me to drop pounds too.  I ended up Hypothyroid with our last child though.  So breast feeding did not do much at all.  So 5 years later, and all the pounds later, I am on here giving it a try.  I am keeping track of calories and nutrients on here to give me accountability.  Happy Easter ! 



To Emily:  Great to see your love for horses !  Have you figured out how to submit stuff yet?  Just click on the dashboard, click on food log and find a food, and "add to log".  Ya gotta scroll down to see it all, I had a hard time changing meals when I first started so it looked like I only ate at breakfast lol.  My daughter plays trombone too !  This will work if you stick with it !  it keeps you accountable and lets you "play" on the computer ! What could be better - ha ha .  Good luck !  And try Multi-grain cheerios rather than cheetos.  The multi-grain kind are actually super good !  Way better than the boring plain and honey nut kinds.
