Shell, you're doing great! It's good to hear that you're less focused on weight and more focused on overall well-being. Are you starting to feel different? Stronger? Do you notice a difference in the way you carry yourself?
I'm not exercising atm, but I recall that when I was working out I felt taller and--I dont know how to describe it--just good, I guess!  I think I've gained enough weight back to start an exercise regimen of my own. I'm tired of being a weakling! 
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who eats more than one Luna Bar a day! Lol. I'm a Chocolate Peppermint Stick addict. And proud of it!

Are you starting to feel different? Starting? Oh my goodness....it is day and night...day and night I tell ya! Stronger? Oh YES!! Do you notice a difference in the way you carry yourself? Very much so...I stand tall, with my chest out and head UP (not looking at the ground as I walk past people...instead I SMILE)

How would I make them without marshmallows? And I the ones at Whole foods....what are they made of? Do you know if those are dairy free?
Thanks!

Hey Augie,
Instead of marshmallows you use the fluff. The fluff is vegetarian. Hang on- I'm looking up a recipe for you. Looks like you'd need to use soy instead of margerine, but marshmallow fluff is Gluten free for those of you who avoid that... and I can't remember if they have dairy or not at Whole Foods. I do think they have some corn syrup, which I know is a no-go for people...
1/4 c. margarine or butter
1 7 1/2-oz jar Marshmallow Fluff
5 cups crispy rice cereal
Melt margarine in large saucepan over low heat. Add Marshmallow Fluff and cook over low heat about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add crispy rice cereal. Stir until well coated. Using buttered spatula or waxed paper, press mixture evenly into buttered 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. Cut into squares when cool. Yield: 24 squares, 2 x 2 inches.
MICROWAVE MARSHMALLOW FLUFF TREATS
Place Fluff and margarine in 2 1/2 qt. microwave safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH for 3 minute, stirring each minute. (Based on 700-watt microwave oven.) Stir in cereal until coated. Using a buttered spatula or waxpaper, press mixture evenly into buttered 13 X 9 inch pan. Cut into 2 X 2 squares. Yield: 24 squares.
customized treats
Depending on your taste, try customizing your Marshmallow Fluff Treats recipe by adding small pieces of nuts, chocoate, dried fruit, unsweetened cocoa, candy bay, and/or other ceral. To the rice cereal add up to one cup of your customized selection and blend in thoroughly before adding to the cooked ingredients.

Do you think this is too much margarine? Heather's recipe calls for 2 T of oil, so this would be twice as much fat. Have you made this before?

You could be right....do you do any rice? What do you do as a base then? Potatoes are too starchy for me constantly.
