DAY ONE REPORT, 4 LBS. GONE!!

Well, Joy - I DID IT! I stayed on my high-protein plan yesterday and in 24 hours, I have lost 4 lbs. Of course, this must be lots of water, but I feel so much better today and will stick to this today as well. Here's what I ate yesterday, I didn't try to do "meals" rather ate something when I was hungry: 1 egg w/half slice cheese, scrambled, w/1 lite sausage link; 1 cheese stick; handful dry roasted nuts; 1 hamburg patty w/2 green pepper strips, and leaf lettuce; 1/2 cottage cheese w/5 grape tomatoes. At night, I indulged in a wonderfully warm cup of sugar-free hot cocoa. I also did my 3-4 mile walk and had lots of fun with my pony (who almost killed me because she spooked at our shadows...she's still such a baby!) Hope this helps, guys. WE CAN DO THIS! Reenie

Happy Monday Morning Reenie! I woke up this morning and said this is IT! I had a nice cup of decaf tea relaxed for alittle bit due to snow then had 1 & 1/2 eggs with slice of cheese. NO toast I'm stuffed for now. I'm going with the mainly protein diet today. cut back big time yesterday too with carbs. I met a guy friend yesterday at the mall for lunch. Had a hamburger with cheeze and bacon ate half of that was full. He is in awe of my beautimus! He might be a keeper. gotta wait and see. What i've done is also gone back to the water load 15 minutes before a meal like Dr A had told me to do years ago. It does help. duh. do ya think he knows what he's talkin bout? yeaaaaaaa double duh. this morning when i weighed in while not having lost anything since last week i am glad that i am down the 3 pounds still from the holidays. now to get rid of the remaining extra 15 that i want to lose. soooooooo heres truth for ya! weight 1/14/08 174.8 arggggg goal weight 160. lowest weight after surgery 157 highest weight before surgery 300ish (day of was 277 lost some before hand) I CAN DO THIS!
