Topic: RE: I'm OKAY!
I too find myself looking for snacks once I get home and have found this to help: I set my coffee maker to make me a pot of coffee when I arrive home from work. I drink a large 20oz cup which really helps to take the hunger away and then I get out of the kitchen. (I get home around 3:30 pm. and this helps me get to dinnertime around 5:30-6) I do this during the day as well...can you tell I;m a huge coffee lover? I do drink only decaf by the way! Hope this helps!

PS - you could drink decaf herb tea or have a cup of hot chicken broth or soup that might give you the same effect.
Topic: I'm OKAY!
I am doing okay, but struggling to get off my last 10 pounds. I want to snack all the time. I do wonderful all day at work, but as soon as I hit the door at home, I want to EAT! What's with all this? I hope you all are doing well and it would be great to hear from some of you. Loretta

Outstanding weight loss!! Way to go girl! I am in the process of appealing my surgery. Can I ask about your plastic surgery? How do you know who is a good surgeon in Brazil? Are they a lot cheaper? Are you taking someone along to look out for you? I am a long way off since I haven't even had the surgery yet. Just hope filled thinking. Thank you for your input.
