I am new to this board and was glad to read that low fat milk is now allowed.

Also excited to read so many great recipes and hear success stories.

Feeling a little old tho, I'm 42 and have 40 pounds to lose. I was treated for breast cancer 2 years ago and gained the pounds during chemo, surgeries and just plain feeling sorry for myself.....oh yeah then my doctor put me into menopause, that's when the weight really came on with a vengance and in the tummy area.


So far no strong cravings and feeling good. I stood in the checkout line and looked at other carts lined up, we truly are a nation of carb-eaters.

Thanks and hope to be a regular. I weigh in at my oncologist appointment tomorrow, hoping for some early progress.

Thank you Susan

I will check out the 40's group.

Your success on the program is wonderful and you do a great job as CL. I spent alot of time on the i-village breast cancer board when I was going through treatment and I hope to be a regular here.
