If it helps, this is what I do: I have a protein drink for breakfast, cheese and some type of meat (total for both about 3 ounces) for lunch, for my two mid-day snacks (one before lunch, one after) I have a protein bar or a handful of nuts with a small portion of fruit, then for dinner I eat what I enjoy...just not a lot of it. I am still losing, albeit slowly, but I am almost one year out. Don't forget to exercise, it will help continue your weight loss. Oh, and I allow myself 3 small shortbread cookies for my evening snack. SMALL! Good luck to you.

Surgery over, glad to be home. Very glad to be home.

Water does NOT make me full, it makes me hungry!!! I would appreciate it if people would stop telling me that nonsense!

I just noticed that as of today I have lost 150 pounds. Holy #%$@ as my PCP said twice during my last checkup!

8 and a half hours left until surgery. Nervous, very nervous.

You'll do fine! Have faith! You've done all your research, know your surgical team and staff, have all prepared for your time at home, so relax and think about your future as a healthy, happy person! Start planning for fun things, like what you will be able to do, and what you'll wear doing those activities!
My husband has his cancer surgery in less than 2 weeks, but he is not nervous at all! I have faith that you will both do fine, and I leave you in God's capable hands to take of you both. God speed!!! And let us know how you do!

Going spankless today - Red heels, size 2 jeans and a white T shirt.

What a great day. I have lost 100 lbs and arrived at Onederland on the same day!

Found a fabulous Ralph Lauren dress on sale yesterday to wear for dressy evenings on my vacation next month. Didn't buy it. It was labeled size 6, but it was too big for me. This feels like the Twilight Zone. Size 6. Too big!

There's a 90% chance your hair will start to fall out......I'll just leave this here. That's all

Last week my four-year-old grandson told me that I have “mashed potato arms” and then proceeded to waggle my bat wing. At the time I didn’t react, but I guess it really bothered me since I’m still thinking about it. This loose skin is a scourge.

What's with all the Debbie Downers lately? So many folks posting about what they can't do.

The thinner I get, the wilder my wardrobe. Too much color? Too bad, I'm having a blast.

Why am I so hungry this morning?? Ever have one of those days where no matter what you eat, even high protein options, you just can't get the gnawing stomach hunger to quit? It's barely 10am and I've consumed about half my calories and almost half my protein for the day. And I've been drinking my water.

Nervous today. I meet with a cardiologist to see why my heart rate is so low and I keep feeling dizzy/lightheade. I passed out a week ago. All of this following major spine surgery. Off all medications and it is still happening. I hope they don't find anything too scary but need answers. Wish me luck!
-
Enjoying my new strength & cardio routine, but not the increased weight on the scale. I know why that happens when doing strength training so I'm trying to not let it affect my psyche. NSV - Toning muscle and losing inches!! Yeehaw!!
-
Making progress getting in my fluids but its still a challenge. Getting in the pool has been great!

It should improve with time, did you also have a hernia repair at the same time? If you did, it may take a little more time. I still have difficulties with straight water (at 6+ months out), and I did have hernia repair at the same time. It feels like concrete hitting a brick wall! The water-enhancer drops really help me get more in. Have fun at the pool...wish I were with you!

I do well with my meal plan most days, but then there are times when I eat just a bite or two too many and wish I could undo what I just did. Now is one of those times -- a few too many cashews. I know the misery will pass, but until then......Yuck!

someone set our scale to kilos. I'm not as far as I thought. dammit.
