Fried Chicken for breakfast was a natural at my house. What ever meat we had for dinner was put in gravy the next morning for breakfast with good ole homemade biscuits. I learn to love it. Your right about just being healthy though. I have started watching my fats and sugars and have lost 20 lbs. I am not on a diet just watching what I eat. It has been so much easier this way. <BR/><BR/>Happy New Year to you and your family.<BR/><BR/>Mrs. CharlotteMrs. Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320825331059425239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054475955356461779.post-73099166874708286592008-12-28T14:29:00.000-05:002008-12-28T14:29:00.000-05:00Hidy Suzanne!I couldn't agree with you more......Hidy Suzanne!<BR/><BR/>I couldn't agree with you more...raised on southern food and part of the clean your plate club..still do!<BR/><BR/>Since loosing almost 60 pounds last year I've found I haven't given up taste at all!! It's the portions that get us...restaurants are killing us! Just knowing the calories I could consume everyday to loose 2 pounds a week, helped free me from guilt. <BR/><BR/>The main thing is...you have to eat to lose weight!! Grilled chicken, sauteed asparagus, baked sweet potato with Splenda brown sugar and Brummel & Brown butter...yum!<BR/><BR/>That picture on the header of my blog is me in size 10 pants, standing next to my size 6 daughter-in-law (4 months pregnant)and size 4 daughter....I had just finished doing the dishes after cooking the meal (turkey and trimmings), going to church, coming home and serving Christmas Eve dinner...<BR/><BR/>Last year, 60 pounds heavier, I would have been pooped!! Never would I have stood next to those young fresh skinny girls!!<BR/><BR/>I want to lose 10-15 more pounds this year and I KNOW I can do it!!<BR/><BR/>Trish and Leann are onboard and we are trying to think of a way to form a group to support each other.<BR/><BR/>My email is mbrinke1220@gmail.com<BR/>if you have questions. I'm pretty passionate about this, because I believe if I can do it...anyone can! Really!<BR/><BR/>Sorry so long..<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your sweet comments on my new grandbaby!!Mareehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02530970655684689703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054475955356461779.post-37990461902425759062008-12-28T13:03:00.000-05:002008-12-28T13:03:00.000-05:00I'm with you!

I fell...Hey Sooz, I didn't fall off the food wagon. I fell right smack dab in the middle of it and ate my way (or weight) out. hehehe!!<BR/>Yeah, I could stand to lose a few, but not going to stress over it. I do want to start a regular workout routine. I am not much for going to the gym, but I do like work out videos. <BR/><BR/>My only resolution this year is to just be HAPPY and make sure to count my blessings. <BR/><BR/>HAPPY NEW YEAR<BR/><BR/>krisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10916272462885295630noreply@blogger.com
