Good luck T! You can lose it! I have faith in you!
Apparently my husband accused me of losing weight today. lol My face has gotten thinner since this baby is a health nut but I've gained 5 lbs in my first trimester. lol All I eat is fruits, veggies and dairy. Very little meats. Chicken and fish. That's it. lol Anything sweet, pork or red meat makes me ill. lol
Weight watchers is a wonderful program. I've known several people who have had really good results with it and it's pretty easy to adjust to.

Good luck! I know you can do it. Wife and I have been dieting since January. We cut down portion size a lot, went to a large amount of whole foods, and been walking 2-3 miles every other night. It's slower than some diets, but it's working!

That is why I will only use Weight watchers program. It teaches you how to eat. I went to a party saturday night, Ate a steak, and lots of veggies and two small glasses of sangria and lost a pound. I love this program, (not a diet).
Once you get your referance books, and see how many points the food you were eatting is, its a big shocker. You learn to skip the cheese on salads, and potatos, not to eat butter on your veggies, and that one piece of bread is plenty.
I will update my total loss on friday, but so far so good.

You can't eat cheese
Hey How about carrots LOL
I thought about signing up online, but usually when I diet, I cut out breads, pasta
, butters, and of course the chocolate cake. It use to work, but then again I use to be able to eat anything too 
It really makes a difference too
I'll eat carrot sticks for snacks, and cheese sticks (I thought they were ok), and peanuts...

You can certainly eat cheese! Heck I can eat a mcdonalds hamburger if I want to. I am currently on it now 6 glasses of water per day, 6 serv of fruits and veggies (glass of v8 splash counts as two!...I HATE veggies). two servings of dairy, cheese?, and your losing weight! Obviously stay within your points and no I dont eat a McDonalds hamburger all I'm sayin is if you REEEEAAAAAAAALLLLY wanted somthing like that you can here and there and still be within your points but I think a regular hamburger at that place is like 12 points lol I get 30 points per day and feel good actually as far full goes. Weight Watchers is the way to go for sure, it works!
Typical Day:
Cereal with skim milk 4 points
Nutrigrain bar 2 points
banana 1 point
OJ 2 points
Healthy choice meal 4-8points
fiber one bar 2 points (helps the chocolate fix)
yogurt 2 points (all done with dairy at this point)
V8 Splash (5/6 of the way done with veggies/fruit)
Sensible Dinner usually have about 9-12 points for dinner.
Weight watchers also sells excellent ice cream desserts that are only 1 point! However they are kinda pricey I think a box of ice cream "king cones" are 7 dollars!
The key is to stick with it, I know its hard but if done it works hands down.

you would be suprised how much better you felt if you drank a bottle of water 10 minutes before eating and how your body reacts. Very simple things like that.

Just drinking that much water without doing anything else will cause weight loss. I have roceasa and notice it doesn't act up as much when I am in water guzzling mode.

CR - who are you asking about being active. I am pretty active with my kids, but not enough. I started walking on the treadmill, but am only doing about 1/2 mile a day. As I loose and can handle more on my knees, I will increase.

Gotta crawl before you can walk.
