I agree obesity is a problem. Where I draw the line is how MO is pressuring companies to change their capitalist pursuit of profit.

Perhaps she ought to focus MORE on getting people as individuals to EXERCISE and watch what THEY eat more, instead of pointing fingers at grocers and Wal-Mart.

See, it always starts as a simple “volunteer” effort with the socialists...then it turns into legislation, regulation, and gubmint control.

Congrats on your weight loss...I’m working with the same program, trying to get to an intermediate goal by losing 26 more lbs...my ultimate goal is to lose about 60.

One step at a time. The new system allows you to eat almost all fruit w/ zero points. :)

I know, it’s awesome! Although I have to make sure I don’t eat too many fruits because that really jacks my blood sugar. Often what I’ll do is something like dipping fresh strawberries in fat free greek yogurt which is amazingly creamy — and with the protein in that it buffers the sugar in the fruit perfectly to avoid a spike.
