OK, day 2, I did pretty well actually :-) getting better each day. Drank 32 oz of water, a glass of 2% milk (no soda!) had bologna sandwich (but used wheat bread and 2% cheese) had a cup of lowfat blueberry yogurt (yum) 2 bananas. I did eat spaghetti for dinner but hubby made smaller portions. Not perfect, but better than a usual day for me.

Heather,
When you are changing your diet, small changes are probably best initially that way you don't feel like too much is happening at once. Keep up the good work.

I hope you don't mind if I give you a few tips. I'm not sure what yogurt you are eating but I used to be a big fan of yogurt and I think the nonfat yoplait yogurt is the best tasting yogurt out there. Also, if you were eating regular wheat bread, I would recommend trying whole wheat bread.

Again, keep up the good work.

Yoplait is my favorite yogurt :-) Right now I have the regular, which is already 99 percent fat free, next time im getting the blue kind (the totally fat free) as far as the bread goes, i just grabbed it, it said Wheat bread,.. next time i will look at it closer.

Today ive been good so far too,.. I had bolgna sandwich but used the light bologna and the 2% cheese. Had a banana, low fat yogurt and 16 oz of water so far,.. no soda in 2 days! And last night when I wanted to snack, i had a granny smith apple and a bottleof water,. Tonight hubby is planning ot cook one of those campbell chicken oven bake things, ill be good and add a small salad to it :-)

heather: it sounds like you're really taking control and making some changes.

and don't be afraid to tweak if something doesn't seem to be working., remember. this is all about putting yourself first and taking care of you...
