You look great! What was your highest weight? How is your eating now?

My highest weight was 274. I still want to eat. Surgery didn't help that, but I watch what I eat. I also still drink shakes and try to force as much Water during the day as possible. It's difficult getting the 80 grams of Protein in with only food, but the Premier Protein Shakes with 30g each helps tremendously. I seem to be losing slowly now. I want to change that and boost the weight loss. I realize it's only been six months, but so many people are farther along than I am. I'm just so ready for ONEderland! :)

I feel the same way about the food. I am trying to just do better to shut myself off. I don't know if I am eating too fast or what. Sometimes I give myself more because I feel like I can eat it. However, I will be more mindful because I don't want my weight to continue to be an issue, so i have to do my part. I am full. Not stuff, and I know that is ideal
