I would love to share what I have been doing.

I am a little bit of a rebel. I think it is because I am a nurse! But I DO eat my 60grams of protein per day. I do drink lots of fluids. I don't count carbs. I eat things like half an English muffin and a poached egg for a meal. I do drink diet coke and sparkling Water and a weekly beer. I eat about 1000-1200 cals a day. LIke my name says I can tolerate anything and possibly more food than some- but still have a lot of restriction! I do not want to lose weight super fast or lose muscle mass or lose my hair. I have not lost any hair yet as you can see in my pics I have a ton. (knock on wood) I eat lots of fish, cheese, imitation crab, turkey, tuna, and chicken. An occasional taco or slice of pizza. (about 3/4 of a slice or 3/4 of a taco) I do take 2 chewy Multivitamins a day, 2 chewy Calcium a day, a weekly B12, a Vitamin d, and Biotin (just in case) everyday! I do work out. 4 days a week at least. I do 30 mins on the track. I walk 2 mins then jog 2 mins and alternate. When I walk I use 5 pound weights to work out my arms. Any other specific questions let me know! :-) I am excited for you!

Amazing !!!

You are doing great! Congrats!!!!!!!

You look tiny in the last two photos! I never would have accurately guessed your current weight. I would have said you were much closer (actually below) your final goal. You are doing great!
