Good job girl!!! I know no alcohol and someone drinking it around you all the time is no good. Fortunately I don't really care.... I guess I would rather have food calories then liquid calories. They fill me up more. It's definitely hard when alcohol, smoking, eating is a comfort thing and helps you to relax. Believe me I dealt with that the past few weeks... Just stay strong it will subside!

This is a seaweed salad....it's pickled I guess, so it tastes sweet & it's got sesame seeds & red pepper on it.....It's very good....

I tried it one day on a whim & LOVE it!!

Ironically, this song came on my Ipod while I was on the Elliptical this morning....song is by Seether....

"Fine Again"

It seems like every day’s the same
and I’m left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
and there’s no color to behold
They say it’s over and I’m fine again, yeah
Try to stay sober feels like I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

I feel the dream in me expire
and there’s no one left to blame it on
I hear you label me a liar
‘cause I can’t seem to get this through
You say it’s over, I can sigh again, yeah
Why try to stay sober when I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late; just as well

And I’m not scared now.
I must assure you,
you’re never gonna get away
And I’m not scared now.
And I’m not scared now. No…

I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well
I am prepared now,
seems everything’s gonna be fine for me
For me; for myself.
For me, for me, for myself
For me, for me, for myself
