Niiiiccee!

*nods* Yeppers. She even bought a scarf just for wearing in her car. *chuckles* She looks like the ladies in the older commercials that have a fancy scarf and sunglasses on while cruising down the highway.

 

[FantasySlut]

How cute! And what type of music does she have blaring while she's cruising?

Well. . .it is true the first 100 lbs. just comes off, and the rest you have to work for. *chuckles* Or so it seems to be the case with me. I've held steady for two weeks now, so I am making a few changes to increase the loss and not remain at the 105 mark for long.

I went back and reread all my dietitian's advice and I'm going to write down what I eat (this is a big deal for me, because I have always and I do mean always sucked at journaling my food intake). . .surprising when it comes to stuff like that I don't want to write, but give me a story idea and I'll roll with it.

I'm starting month 6, which means I get to eat:

Breakfast:

2 oz. protein (Today was Cottage Cheese)
2 oz. starch (3 saltine crackers)
1 oz. fruit (1 med. strawberry)

Lunch:

2 oz. protein
2 oz. vegetable
1 oz. fruit

Dinner/Supper:

2 oz. protein
2 oz. starch
1 oz. vegetable

I can have one daily snack of a fruit or a vegetable.

------------

I'll be honest with you folks. . .I haven't followed the "snack" plain real well, so that is going to change, because that is where I need to behave.

So I pulled out my measuring tool and I'm getting back on board. I've come to far to grow stagnant.

Dang ((((((((((((Red))))))))))))... I'd starve!

More power to you for sticking with a menu like that...

Had my measurements/weight done Monday and more good news!

I lost 3.2 pounds more and increased my LBM 1.6 pounds.

Hey there. ((((((((((HUGS))))))))))

For me though. . .it fills me up. That is the good thing about this surgery. You don't need to eat a lot to be full, you also don't have much of a choice to eat a lot.

By the time the year is up, I should be up to 7 - 10 oz. a meal.

Congrats on your measurements.

I weighed in this morning, at 296. I know come Friday, it will be lower, because of the prep stuff I have to do for my surgery on Wed. so Friday's weigh-in won't count this time.

Being full with smaller portions is important...

I'm eating about 1/2 what I was and healther choices too.

Thanks...

I did read about the scheduled surgery and hope it is what is needed to keep you pain free and a trouble free recovery too...

Keep up the good work!

Eating healthier is a big key as is the portions. Even I have to watch the healthier stuff. I have to reach for that carrot, not that candy.lol...

You're very welcome.

I hope it does too. I've never had issues with the right side, just the left, so I hope this works and all goes well.

You too!
