I haven't given up my coffee and never will :p however... I have substituted green tea for the 2nd large mug of coffee that I used to have at about 11:00 a.m. I don't consume any caffeine after that. I still have my enormous mug of java first thing in the morning (with lots of half n half)...

Deanna - Fantastic job on the weight loss !!! :D and great job on following instructions !!! Question: can I use the weight loss tracker without using the workout manager? i.e. can I adjust the weight loss tracker manually? I'm down 2 pounds since starting the Paleo/Primal eating plan...

Thanks fit44 - I do know that processed carbs are my downfall.... hence, the stage 1 - gluten free and only unprocessed foods. That's a start.... and I'll see how I do with eating brown rice, quinoa and oatmeal. Every eating plan/diet out there agrees on ONE thing :p Lots and lots...

Deanna and Stacy - great attitudes !!! We are doing it.... and.. as FnV said - we are here to support each other thru our ups and downs, good days and bad days. We have the best support team EVER !! FnV - as you said.. the one thing all these diets agree on is lots of veggies !!!! I...

I sincerely appreciate everyone's comments and, mini-natty, I did not take your comments as implying any pressure by anyone. I do, however, feel pressure in the "outside world." From friends/family who run the gamut from vegans to diehard carnivores and everything in between. And huge...
