Thanks Nancy for the advice, I guess I'm just gonna have to bite the bullet and count the stinkin calories, I have been eating between 1200 and 1500 after I realized I was gaining weight instead of losing it and you're right its not that bad I just really enjoyed being a pig. I even went so far as only eating about 10 carbs a day but was still gaining with the 3000 calories. I have about 30 lbs. to lose so will try and be a good little girl also till I have this weight off.
