The company I work for, Pencor, has begun using the program "Wellness Jackpot" (www.wellnessjackpot.com). The program uses incentives to get you to do healthy things like exercise, eating right, and more. As you reach various goals and do certain things like get a yearly physical, have blood pressure checked, etc., you earn game cards, similar to the scratch-off lottery tickets. You can accumulate points, and there's a catalog of prizes that you can earn by redeeming the points you collect. I went through the initial health assessment. It pointed out a variety of areas where I need growth, and it offers some suggestions as well. Maybe your company would be interested in starting this program. Visit www.wellnessjackpot.com for more info.

Jim- I'd be happy to review a 3-4 day food journal to help you find some of your pitfalls. You have recognized that you need to exercise to keep the weight off. I'm surprised that ricotta pie was on bariatriceating.com-it does have artificial sweetener in it but is calorie-laden and fat-laden with a pie crust, heavy cream and ricotta cheese!  Also, I have never heard of Swerve, but not surprised another company is coming out with something like Splenda. Please email me if you would like some help from me to get you back on track. Lisa

I sent you and email for your help. I truly appreciate it.I should have known the ricotta pie wasn't a good idea--it tasted too good! And my Dad even liked it. That should have been a red flag!  Looking forward to working with you to help me get back on track and get back to losing weight. Thank you!

By the way, I deleted the ricotta pie off the forums, so as not to tempt anyone.
