Awww... it is so nice to have everyone give me a 'reality check'. THANK YOU!!! That was what I needed and was looking for.
I have been writing down my food for the past couple of days in preparartion for seeing this new dr on Friday and I had my sister and mom look over what I've been eating for the past couple of days since they are fairly knowledgeable people about food, exercise, etc. From what they could see I was eating very healthfully but just too much. Of course, I could always eat more veggies...you can never have too many! So I'm going to continue to write my food down and see if I can pare down the amount I'm eating and increase the exercise. Thank you all so much for your kind and thoughtful words as well as support. It means a great deal to me that you give such thoughtful opinions.
