@acampbell1318 - You will get there!!! I try not to stress out about the stalls.. I just came out of a really long stall.. it is what it is... I look at it this way, i am down X amout of weight and that is better then where i started from... I know in time i will lose if i keep doing what my dr & nut set up for me. To be honest, i wish i was a little bit of a slower loser, i am starting to see the effects on my skin from losing so fast... I try to eat mostly whole foods (very little processed - just a handfull of items and thats it) Every morning: (and yes i mean every morning) I have an egg white with a slice of Am Cheese. (sometimes i have 2 egg whites, but most times i cant eat all of it) some times i have 1/2 of a whole grain english muffin and one egg white w/chz.. (only once or twice a week) Mid morning: i will have one of the following - half apple, protein shake, nuts, fruit, rolled up turkey breast with cheese or greek yogurt. Lunch: one of the following: steak, shrimp, chicken and if i have room, maybe a small spring salad (we are talking 1/2 cup for all of this) or some kind of raw veggie (but only like one or two bites then im full) - some times its chicken salad (very little light mayo) with few slices of cheese, and maybe 1/2 apple or 4 triscuits... Mid afternoon: (sometimes i skip this cause i am not hungry, but if i am it might be the rest of my lunch or one of the snacks already listed above) Dinner: some kind of meat/fish... (normally its a long the lines of lunch) If i go out to eat, i have left overs for lunch & dinner for a few days... Snack: (not always but maybe 2 times a week - some frozen yogurt (about 1/8 - 1/4cup) really its just a taste... I stay away from all pork products, and most processed foods - my new tummy just doesnt like it. I dont really care for ground meats anymore either... its too heavy for me. I only drink water, skim milk, protein shakes, once in a while i will have unsweeten Tea or G2 low cal. (but not too often) - also i dont drink but maybe 2-3 oz of wine MAYBE once or twice a month... my new tummy just doesnt like it... but my brain does LOL I also walk every day... Some days i try to add running/jogging into it. I just started riding my bike again... I pretty much do the same thing everyday, becuase its what works for me... Dont worry you WILL get there!!! I have posted some pictures... but i will see if i can get a picture taken today and post it - Thanks everyone - i love this site, the support is awesome... sometimes it just what we need!!! Happy Tuesday!

@@skinnygirlwithin .... thank you for that post above about your daily eating regimen.

Sounds like you're doing just what the doctor ordered. :)

Congratulations. You look amazing. :)
