  1. Looking for some dinner ideas. Something for the whole family. Simple, quick, something the husband will like and the kids too.
  2. I eat egg whites with ff cheese every morning. I'm boring.
  3. Also I never lose, sometimes even gain a pound or two during that time if the month, then have a good drop the following week. So look at your progress over time.
  4. I was at about 25 down @ 3 Weeks then gained 3 to 4. And stayed the same for 3 more Weeks. Eventually I got fills and it kicked into high gear, i'm down 45 pounds in less than 5 months. Its actually easier now. Just stick with it. Do your best. Try to drink Water. Dont eat totally crazy or terrible foods. Just do your best, keep up with fills and it will come. Trust me I had some bad days because I was so upset when the scale didn't move, but I stuck with it the best i.could and it eventually happened. Good luck, you actually sound just right about normal..
  5. As soon as you are off pain meds.
