My year at a glance.... (not in order)
Did a marriage group with my husband that was pretty intense (last Jan through May) learned a lot!
Started school at the institute of integrative nutrition in May
continued on in learning healthy eating and lifestyle habits, lost some more weight and clothing sizes
went to Florida in April and spent 4 days at a resort on the beach (my hubby was awarded this trip from his employer)
started to see clients for my health coaching biz in Oct (loving it!)
started a New church in April
Kids are healthy and well, marriage is thriving, continued to heal from some of lifes most devastating set backs and losses...

Anyone doing it and want to buy some from me? I have lots of sealed unused stuff. My dietician hates it and basically ordered me to quit it. Thanks!
Yes even "Diet" soda!
Anyone interested?
I am hosting a "no soda pop" 30 day challenge through my health coaching practice, it is free! there will be group support, health tips and guidance!! When I started my healthy lifestyle transformation over 4 years ago, soda was the first thing I eliminated from my diet.... It is my experience that removing just one poor nutrition choice helps pave the way for other good things to be added and helps get the momentum rolling to eliminate other less than desirable habits!
Who's in?
Questions? Comments? Suggestions? All are welcome!

Jan 23,2012 I answered the call and made my faith in Jesus public. I was baptized in August
My son turned 4 in April.
My little family played all summer. We were camping/fishing/traveling every weekend.
Took my kids to two amusement parks. Spent a to. Of time with family.
My baby girl turned 7 and also started the first grade (with *my* first grade teacher!)
Of course y'all know about the plastic surgery and my super blessed recovery.
I too look forward to 2013 and I am interested to see what all I can accomplish this year. I start back to college two Mondays from now!!
This is an interesting question. I never explored pills so my research is limited. I believe most pills are meant for short term use. I would think helping you get started would be a good use. Maybe they cause more harm than good?? I just don't know. Was there a particular pill you wanted?
It is interesting that surgery is "pushed" and pills are seemingly off limits.
Against it, even though it is the most popular and paid for treatment in Ontario. I feel that there are too many risks of future complications and far too many restrictions. I just coulnt do it. The surgery would treat what's in between my ears either lol. Weight loss is a
Mind trip all by itself. I am fairly happy with what I have accomplished and plan in continuing to make healthy food choices and exercise regularly. I really hope you can find something that works for you. This board is quiet but a few of us post. I still read the surgical forums because I know the Ontario one shares get tips about eating plans recipes. I also like to read the success stories. I also get reminded about the difficulties and sometimes tragedies of people who have chosen the surgical approach. Keep checking in with us and again welcome to the forum.
I don't want to have surgery at the moment and I wonder why it is so difficult to get doctors to prescribe any dietary pills first? I think I am a good candidate for this. In fact I think this may work to help me along with nutrition and exercise. But when I mention getting pills doctors make me feel like I have a problem...and boy does that make me angry. I'm not a drug addict or anything like that I just think with everything I have read these may be just what I need to jump start my weight loss. Why make these pills if they cannot be used? Interesting that surgery has been offered but not this non-invasive help. Any suggestions or comments are welcome.
