If you could do it all over again, would you do it exactly the same? Learn from your experience - sometimes you'll want a repeat performance, but other times you'll want to do something different.

This Week

Soup's on! Soup is a great category of food (one that I eat almost every day!). We'll talk about soup in all its glory. Bring your favorite soup recipe, or a can of your favorite soup - you can leave it in the Lose For Good box on your way out.

ALSO: it's goal time again! Come prepared to set a goal you'd like to achieve by the end of the year.

Weekly Potpourri

California is now the first state in the country to require certain restaurants to provide calorie counts on their menus. It doesn't become effective immediately, but we'll likely start seeing more nutrition information out there, which can only help our dining out efforts. Will we be shocked at what we see?
