hi Paula, I'm sorry to hear your job has been so stressful. I couldn't handle the kind of work you described!

Sugar is Teh Evil. We all know it, don't we. :(( Congrats on starting LC again. We have a woman at the German LC forum who lost 220 pounds, so everything is possible if you just stick to it long enough. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and wish you the best of luck!!
