I like your idea. When a thread gets huge, it's hard to keep it straight with this style of messageboard.

Just thought of another tip to help people keep from snacking, especially while baking. If you chew gum while working, it'll keep you from putting little pieces in your mouth. I have a problem having gum in the house though, because the kids invariably steal it from me. They always find my hiding spots and it's gone in a day. My solution then is to brush my teeth. Since I hate the flavor of toothpaste with most things sweet or sour, I'll avoid eating things I shouldn't be eating.

My kids steal my gum, too. Somehow the concept of Mommy's purse being off-limits doesn't make sense for them.

I'm going to start our weekly thread in a few minutes. I'm going to call it Dieting Cakers, week of 9/24. I think we should put the week in the thread title so we can keep it straight.

I haven't looked at that thread yet, but my suggestion is to place the link here every week, as well as place the link here there.

Personally I don't mind one long thread because it keeps all the great information in one place. But if everyone else is for seperate posts, I think it would help to keep reference of them on this thread so that people can easily look back on them.

great idea! It would help people who like the long threads as well as the ones who like the shorter ones.
