1.teacher 2.rny 3.not sure, I take Bioten 4.strong cheeses 5.I miss drinking a full pot of coffee in the morning that was fully loaded. 6.I've gone from a 24 to a 16. It truly amazes me! 7. I'm thinking maybe 140 but that seems really small, I wonder if 150 is more practical. I will just have to wait and see. I'm 177 now.. 37 pounds seems like a long way off, I'm losing about a pound a week. 8. My biggest supporters are my kids and friends. My husband seem s kind of confused. He has jeolousy issues so that may be factoring in. But I guess like Sabrina at the end of the day I am my biggest support. Thanks Ana, Jane
