Hi how r u? U look great. Im about 6months out aswell... any advice u could giv me would b great. Portion sizing of what your eating n drinking???

Hello, I am wonderful! Thank you for asking. I drink water with flavor enhancer or powerade zero. Anything fluid wise has to be 15 calories or less per serving. Some times I have diet ocean spray because it's 15 cals per serving. And I just recently found a minute made orange juice that has 10 calories per serving. Food: I eat a lot of eggs, egg salad on whole wheat crackers, baked or steamed fish, chicken, cheese of all kinds, 0% Fage yogurt, tuna.. My trick to keep calories low and protein high. I do that by adding plain non fat Greek yogurt to anything that makes sense, I replace it for mayo in egg salad and I replace it for sour cream on chilli or in mashed potatoes.. My other trick is to add non fat powdered milk to lots of things, I love oatmeal so I make it with skim milk and then add 1/4 cup powdered milk while cooking to give it even more protein... Portion size I can only eat about 4-6oz. of most things.... chicken I can only eat 3oz of cooked chicken. My intake is 60 grams of protein and 64 fl oz of water/powerade zero.

I have been working out but no religiously.. I purchased a 13 month contract from a local AnyTime Fitness gym and I go a few times a week. The holidays got crazy busy but I also have 2 kiddos that I chase around all day.

You seriously look 10+ years younger! Amazing job! So exciting!

You look amazing! Congrats

Looking fantastic! What an inspiration!

You look fantastic! I hope I am as successful!
