I eat most anything I want but in moderation and smaller amounts. I also excercise regularly..at least 5 times a week. I'm losing weight but slowly. I've changed alot of things that are bad for me to healthier options. Have any of you changed everything you eat to nothing but healthy foods or are you doing the same as me? I'm a slow loser so I'm trying to get my head right and do the right thing..even 6 months out I'm trying to figure out the right thing to do for me. Some say losing slow is the way to go but I'd like to pick up the losing pace so if anyone has suggestions on what I can change, it would be really helpful.

I eat pretty much anything that I want, but I do try to choose healthier. I know a couple of times I've vomited from high fat foods (like olive oil). Fried foods are not even appealing to me, but I have my days where nothing is.

Feel free to add me on myfitnesspal.com. I share my journals on there and document everything I bite there, as well as my workouts.

I wish I had a magic answer to tell you how to lose weigh faster, but in reality, I don't. And taking time to lose weight is good for your skin so you don't have too much 'hanging' from sudden weight loss. How much are you losing a week now?

I do the same as you. I usually make healthy food choices but if I really want a bite of something bad then I allow myself that, in moderation of course! If not then I will only become resentful of never allowing myself to enjoy those foods and that leads me down a bad spiral path. I have enjoyed a steady weight loss and make it a point to go to the gym at least 3 times a week for at least 60 minutes.

There are some bad foods that I no longer have a taste for and that is a good thing. But if i eat a bit of bad food option I don't fret over it. As long as my healthy food options are 95% of the time the 5% won't kill me.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
