NewBeginings I don't get the shot my GP wouldn't give it to me I buy the soft chews from gnc

I'm down 100lbs now 95 to go to get to my goal weight I started at 310 made it through holidays they give good recipes and tips on this site that help with holidays helped passed those cannied yams I baked a small sweet potatoe sprinkled a little Splenda on it and I was satisfied I could only eat 2 forkfuls but I felt like I wasn't missing out

Yes you will begin to feel better the B12 will give you energy I'm 16 months out now and have had some challenges I was cleared to exercise when I was in week 3 and on soft diet grits and farina /cream of wheat were my best friend

Your just starting out I think that will go away when your able to drink protein shakes but drink your water and walk when it's cool early morning or evenings don't forget your vitamins I would sometimes forget because I never took vitamins that will keep your energy up keep the good work it's worth it!!!

No I tried but did 2x ate dinner protein first

S Suther hang in there you know this is a journey but you've come a long way successfully you've tried this process so everyone's body is different and reacts differently to things I've reached a plateau and took your advice stage 1 for week and the scale moved I was so happy because I was getting frustrated Sooo maybe make another small change see what happens Much success coming your stay on the right path

Bacon good to hear from you try some jerky when you are driving a lot it might help keep you away from the sweets someone recommended to me because I also do a lot of driving I'm going to give it a try will let you know if it helps me keep on track Today was much better got my exercise in balance and gait class eating went well

I'm having trouble with my sweet tooth and carb craving I've been pretty good at reading labels can't seem to figure out what's going on time to make an appointment with dietitian have been tracking my food but I'm not losing glad that the weather is getting warmer I can walk which is my favorite exercise hoping with gym also I'll start losing again I have a long way to my goal weight 150 I'm presently 243 I'm determined to get there hope everyone is doing well today was not a good day for me but tomorrow will be better

Glad you're feeling better the weather in NJ is cold and my arthritis in my hip has been bothering me however I did have an awesome workout in gym this week went 2x Moving Forward

I forgot to post yesterday however I over ate yesterday had lump crab cake and sweet potato for dinner I believe it was the sweet potato I should have had a quarter instead of half boy did I have a difficult night little sleep because of stuffed feeling and terrible gas today liquids and ginger roasted chicken and will use my cup container suggested to eat out of that is much helpful to me and I had it in cabinet already well got my water in going drink 1 protein shake dinner at 6:30 hope everyone is having a successful day One Day at a time One Meal at a time

I use diet coach app to track my food the dietitian set for me with calorie limit 1200 but I have never gotten to 1200 mostly 800 I excerise 3 days minimal I was lazy yesterday and didn't cook but today making navy bean soup

I'm willing to do some accountability with you I need to start measuring my food I have the tools but am lazy I hated ww points I think that's where my block mentality comes from but I am starting to think I would lose more if I measured any ideas suggestions I will post every day
