[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 326988, member: 3444"] Some people just like to hear themselves talk, and when they seek others out, it's only as a sounding board and not for true communication. My sister in law#2 is like that. Which is why I limit my exposure to her as much as possible. Best to just avoid toxic people like that, Janet. Don't let her get to you too much. Just because she's lonely doesn't mean you have to suffer the brunt of her self-absorption. by the way, I think Star's diet/lifestyle plan is excellent. And maybe one day I'll get off my patootie and give it shot. I did something similar years ago and it worked very well for me. I kept the weight off for quite a while.. but then I got married, and well, that resulted in a slow but steady undoing of all the progress I'd made. :( Maybe the no-sugar approach would be worth starting after the holidays are done? And if you can't make broad changes at first, be happy with just baby steps in the beginning. Sometimes that's easier and less overwhelming. [/QUOTE]
