just checking in....

I have not posted in a long time, but I do check the board almost everyday. I have learned so much from you guys. Today is my wedding anniversay- 7 yrs. We have been together for 12 yrs total. He is the most wonderful man. We didnt do anything special, my mother in law kept our son last night and we went to dinner at the Olive Garden with another couple. I ate mostly salad but did have a few bites of artichoke/spinach dip on tuscan bread. yummy! I am nearing my 7th month out and Ive lost 86 pounds so far. I am happy with myself for the most part except for my legs. For some reason I cant get them to go down! Argh!!! I eat about every 2-3 hours and average 1000-1200 calories a day. I try to keep my carbs under 100 and protein at 80g or more. I go to curves 3 days a week and walk/jog on the treadmill at 3.2 mph for 30 min on the other days. My son will be 2 this month, new years eve! We are really looking forward to Christmas and his birthday this year! He says he wants HO HO to bring him Madagascar(the movie), and a big fire truck! Ok so now Im just typing endlessly, I love everyone of the Maysters and Im always lurking around somewhere. Candy 263.5/177.5/150

Hey Candy, We have almost the same stats, I was 260 and down to 179 today. Congrats on your anniversary, and I hope this Holiday Season, and your son's birthday is super fabulous this year, Just the fact that you're probably a much happier person will make it so! Take Care Aliya

Congratulations on your success, Candi. Happy holidays!

I am so proud of you Candy! Sounds like you are really following the program, much better than myself!! I have a 3 1/2 year old son so I know how excited you guys are about Christmas this year, especially because we have our better health to celebrate also!! I hope you all get your hearts desires!!!
