Who we are and why we are here:

'He' started out at 450 lbs. 'She' started out at 300 lbs (although had been as high as 330 lbs at one point). Between them they've lost weight, gained weight, and learned a lot along the way.

What you'll find here are our educated thoughts, opinions, and tips for a healthier lifestyle. 'He' minored in psychology, 'she' majored in history - two research heavy fields that have made them both skeptical and able to weed through the sludge in order to find gems. Neither of us is perfect by any means, but as much as possible, we will try not to lead you astray with unfounded, sensational, or fad information.

We are intentionally avoiding fad diets, expensive meal plans, and other extreme (expensive!) weight loss plans.

Additional note about Sweets

It is sooo difficult to avoid sweets, not doubt about it, but I do have a new best friend.  Extra Desserts gum.  The Chocolate Mint tastes like starlight mint from, childhood!  Strawberry Shortcake and Orange Cream are nice, but even better I have enjoyed Root Beer Float and Rainbow Sherbet.  (Apple Pie, imo, was a disappointment).

Now when are they going to come out with Fudge Brownie?  I mean, they have done well at taming the sweet tooth, but sometimes a gal just want CHOCOLATE!  Am I right?!

  1. My children love this line of gum! And finally, I can enjoy a Root Beer Float without any of the negatives!!! But I agree, we need something with a bit of chocolate in it...
