Took the banana right out of my mouth......

What a great analogy.

You can do it, just carry a water bottle with you everywhere you go. That's what works for me and I drink anywhere from 80 - 100 ozs a day. Extra bonus is all the trips down the hall to the bathroom, lol.

Good Luck!!

Thanks everyone. I love the support I get here!

Do you see a nutritionist? If not I would recommend seeing one. They can help you plan out health meals. I agree with what CG said, she gave some good advise. Going back to liquids is not going to help, you will still feel hungry and you won't be learning how to eat healthy.

Focus on taking small bits, chewing till mush and waiting 1 minute between bits. This will make a big difference in the volume of food you eat, I can always eat more food if I eat fast.

Setting a goal of 60 pounds in 4 months is setting yourself up for failure. You don't want to fail, so regroup talk to a nutritionist, read some of the posts in the nutrition & food forum (a lot of good ideas for healthy foods) and talk with your doctor about your frustrations.

You can do this. Good luck to you.

You control food. It doesn't control you. Proud of you Dee!

I'm speechless. Why are we hurting each other? Why?

During my weight loss stage of my journey I would have days where I would eat 1100-1200 calories and then I'd have days where I would eat up to 1500 calories. Having the ups and downs with the calories seemed to help with my journey. I lost weight every month.

Thanks so much guys!

Now you are someone I can relate to! I have rolled plenty of barb wire and have the scars to prove it. lol Do you have a front end loader on that tractor? That is what I use to pull post up with. Glad to see a country gal on here!

Don't have the loader attachment, big mistake not getting it when we bought the tractor (that's a whole other story, lol). Used the three point in the back to pull the posts. It worked great.

You are a star. Can't wait for an autograph!

I forgot to tell you, you look amazing. Thank you for posting your new you.

Thanks bunches.

You are doing fantastic. You have learned the biggest secret to success, lifestyle change!

Thanks Kime. I'm going to make this for me & hubby this weekend.

Kime don't be hard on yourself. You have lost 50 lbs in 6 months & that is awesome! You did a check on yourself & you know what you need to do to fine tune your lifestyle. So all you have to do is do it..... I do have a wabbit gun & I've been known to use it to kick butts, lol

I started at 250 and it took 10 months to loose 73 pounds. You don't want to loose too fast and my doc warned me that the closer you get to goal the harder it is to loose.

So it's a new year, chin up & lets rock this thing together. ~~hugs~~

Do you eat it with anything else?

I sometimes have pita chips, pita bread or greek flat bread with it.

Great blog. We can be our worst enemy or our best friend, it's our choice.

Happy New Year!

That's why they call it Furr-niture LOL

So very true!

My husband says I still eat too fast. For me, I think it is slow. I do drink a real lot. I don't chew 30 times, depends on the foods as to how much I chew. I guess it's time for a re due.

Thanks for the post.

Lately I have had to do a re due. I had to get my phone out to time between bites.... Funny almost a year into this and I still have to go back to the basics.

I believe it. Having a positive attitude can do amazing things and positive attitudes come from happy people. At least thats my opinion.

Eye candy a potty mouth?!! You crack me up. You will be in onederland before you know it because you are working this lifestyle. You go girl!!

It's great to be able to enjoy the holidays without food controlling them. Congratulations on all your success.

My mouth is watering reading that. Sounds delicious. What's for dinner today? I could be there by 6pm..... just saying. lol

Enjoy your holiday, you are a true role model for us all.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

How adorable!
