Holiday

I don't think having a frozen meal when you're pressed for time otherwise would hurt you at all. I found a posting (forget where, was months ago) from a fellow sleever who doesn't cook. She wasn't losing weight as fast as her doctor liked, so her doctor gace her a list of acceptable meals with some guideline for trying others. here is that list. I saved it.

Lean Cuisine:
Glazed chicken
Three cheese Chicken
Chicken Parmesan
Meatloaf with Gravy and Whipped Potatoes

Smart Ones:
Chicken Marsala with Broccoli
Picante Chicken and Pasta
Penne Pollo

South Beach:
Garlic Herb Chicken

Healthy Choice:
Beef Tips Portobello
Traditional Turkey Breast

Meals must meet the following guidelines:
*Fewer than 300 calories
*Fewer than 10 grams total fat
*Less than 45 total carbohydrates
*More than 15 grams of Protein
*Less than 600 milligrams of sodium (preferred but not essential)
Hope this helps!

I can't wait until I am able to wear the t-shirts they give away at Kansas City Royals baseball games.
I can't wait to not feel sticky and sweaty the moment there is any humidity in the air, even if the temp is 70 degrees.
I can't wait to have the whole world selection of clothes - to find my style instead of putting up with what is least offensive in the big girl's section of the store.

I've always heard that when you lose it slower you will have less sagging skin. I am also loosing very slowly and that is okay with me. As long as the scale isn't going up I'm happy.

I think slower weight loss is healthier. I am purposely losing slowly to preserve my muscle mass, my hair, and to keep my skin tight-- so far so good!!!!

I'm a slow loser. Actually you are losing pretty fast...faster than I did. So don't worry, you are doing great.

Keep up the good work!

That is GREAT if you ask me!

You are going to hear a lot of goofy stuff from people who don't know what they are talking about and you should probably just ignore them. If it is something that concerns you, ask at your surgeon's office. They hear the common questions all the time and can give you good answers.

Give her a taste of her own medicine. When her birthday comes around, give HER a yogurt while you enjoy a very small piece of angel food cake (or some other sugar-free dessert) in front of her. Go over the top and put a candle in her yogurt too.
