OMG! 8 lbs. away from 300!!

WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!! I cannot believe I am ONLY 8 lbs. away from 300 lbs.!!! I haven't been this weight in over 10 years.....Im SO excited!! In 7 weeks I have lost 44 lbs and I feel like a new person all ready. What an amazing feeling!! Simple things are no longer such a chore. Just wanted to share with you all and thank you all for all your support! Purrs, Dee~

WAY TO GO DEE! Isn't this a great feeling? I am only one day and a few pounds behind you. Do you still have any food restrictions? My surgeon says beef comes at 6 months and salad at 12 weeks. Other than that, I can pretty much eat anything. I tend to stick with chicken, beans, and cheese, though. LOTS of bare burritos!!! Judy

Hi Judy! Yes, I am feeling great!! I dont have any food restrictions and I dont dump on sugar(my curse), but I am a vegetarian and I do not eat beef, chicken, pork or turkey at all. I am DYING for a nice salad though, I really am. I used to LOVE the chicken cobb salads at Uno's, it was huge...LOL, thats why I was also huge. LOL! I love cheese and I make sure everyday I get in some. I also love nuts and have a small handful every other day (high in fat and calories). I have wandered into fish though...Dr. recommended it and its going to be the only "meat" I eat. I have the Gordon's Fish Grilled Fish filets, with sweet potato and some sort of bean. Its a great meal. I also make lots of things with veggie crumbles. From sloppy joes, to bare tacos, to american chop suey. YUMMY! I also make a great carrot cassarole that I make every Sunday and eat off it all week. Its got FF shredded cheese in it so I get my protien and my veggie at the same time! Keep up the good work!!! Congrats on your weight loss so far! Purrs, Dee~

Boy do I know that feeling...I am at 395 down from 484 since April 7th 2005, and it is amazing...I cant wait to hit 300, that will really be awesome!
