Reply To: i need motivation to lose weight

Thank You all sooooo much for your great and insightful ideas! I will keep reading and rereading all of them.

Someone mentioned to not have junk food in the house etc. but I forgot to mention one problem-I have an 8yr old who weighs 42 lbs! so i like to have plenty of junk to get her to gain weight.Also I fry chicken cutlets and fish and make meatballs-you know -fatty stuff-in order to get her to gain. My other kids are also smallish,but not as extreme as that child so they can also use more calories.

I just find it hard to make 3 different dinners every night!I obviously dont fry my chicken and fish-that gets baked,but its more of a problem when the whole meal is not so calorie light.
