A few weeks ago, I wrote a big, long post about how worn out and depressed I was feeling.

Good Job Evelyn. To start with I joined my office Gym, next I have to go (one of these days, LOL!!!)

I am thinking of starting Sravan on Gluten free diet this summer (but have to sign contract with him and have acceptable recipies too, vegetarian on top this).

take care,

with the syrup, is it the sugar flavor or the texture of the syrup?

Anandhi,


It was about two months from the time I re-joined the gym, to the time I actually started going!

I'm so glad you are feeling better and taking care of yourself :).

As for the Syrup.... What if you just took the oatmeal out of the house,or finished it up and didn't buy anymore) and only offered cereal? I would not be able to do that with chris if he was so stuck, but I don't know if your son will stick like mine (lol that reads funny lol).

Anyway, if he's like Chris, eventually he will switch to a different food for breakfast. Then we get to deal with something else lol.

So don't stress until the oatmeals finished, then just get other stuff for breakfast.... Will that work for him?

Awesome!! Amazing what changing your diet can do to your overall health. I am still stressed out over Nick, but I find when I eat healthier, I do feel much better. If I wallow in it and eat junk food, I feel much worse. Congrats to you!!

As far as the syrup in the oatmeal, can you buy the low sugar syrup and use that? If he can tell the difference in the label bottle, just dump out the stuff that you have and replace it with the low sugar syrup in the same bottle. This way at least he is getting a bit less sugar. Hopefully he wouldnt be able to tell the difference in the taste, if he does, show him the bottle and tell him it is the same syrup!

Wonderful news, Evelyn! Back in the late fall, early winter- when I was doing WW online, I felt incredible. Isn't it amazing how eating what the Earth intended for us to eat makes such a huge difference?!?! (Okay, that was said with my tongue only slightly in my cheek!)

Unfortunately, when money got tight and I had to canel my membership, I went back to my old "crap eating" ways. What can I say, I'm an emotional eater- and I know it.

Keep up the good work~
