Teah, congratulations on 183! You're doing great and it seems like the SB meals are helping. Sometimes it's hard to hang on, but as long as we keep coming back and working at it, I truly believe we'll all reach our goals. I was surprised when I weighed this morning - I was 169!! Out of the 170s hopefully forever! I've lost six pounds since Monday - I'm sure mostly water, but I'm feeling good. I just went down to the gym here at work and did the treadmill for 20 minutes and even jogged 5 of those minutes! Now when I get up my legs feel wobbly... I'm going to try and get downstairs later in the day to do another 20 minutes. I stayed pretty close to my menu yesterday, I did add a couple of pretzels and some shredded cheese fried crispy in a little frying pan. Yum, that is so good - what a treat! Here's my plan for today: B: Isopure Vanilla Zero carb protein drink L: Unjury protein drink in lemonade D: 3 egg white omelet with cheese and chicken breast Totals: Calories: 742 Carbs: 22 Protein: 99 Snacks: WW Flakes and Fiber Cereal A few FF Pringles chips (maybe) SF Popsicle or SF jello Hugs, Nancy

Hi All, I hope everyone's week has been going well. I got on the scale this morning....back at 183. I've never been so happy to see this number roll around. Now I've got to make plans to leave it behind. For Good!

Mary - What a CHANGE!!! You look simply FABULOUS! You've worked so hard and deserve every bit of your huge success. I see in your profile you're looking into ps. I wish you the best with it and hope its a snap in all ways, both getting it done with insurance, finding a doc and the procedures themselves. I'm now at the point where I'm looking into PS too and have to agree - it's scary! Irene

Pamela, Thanks and Yes it is ever so nice to buy a size 8/10 and no longer feel like I have to wear a moo-moo (this is what the nurse at the PCP referred to my dresses). So each time a get head hunger I try to remember that nothing tastes as good as thin feels (something I heard my whole life...but never made the connection until lately). Mary 415/163
