Hi, I just discovered this board. I'm with you, how did it happen so fast. I'm amazed at what I've accomplished in a year. I hit goal at 11 months with a total loss of 154 and things are amazing!! I hope everyone else has had a successful year!!

1. What types of food did you eat this week? The usual suspects, lots of cheese, cottage cheese, smoothies, coffee, corn, manwich with ground turkey, spaghetti with ground chicken, green beans, peanuts, etc. I tried a few new things. Mint Skinny Cows, Soy Chips, and Tropicana Fruit Juice Water. I actually liked all three.
2. What types of exercise did you do this week? walking, that's about it.
3. How much weight did you lose? Total loss? None, I think I gained.
4. What was your biggest challenge? Not eating crappy carbs.
5. Have you picked up any new addictions/habits since having the surgery? Good or bad. I've noticed I eat a lot more than before. It's a good thing for the most part, but I hate the feeling of hunger. I quit smoking a few years ago and I've had the inkling to do it again, but I won't.
*Fun bonus question:
If someone were going to name a dessert after you, what type would it be and what would it be called??? It would have to be some kind of low fat, no sugar added Chocolate Caramel Blondie if that is possible. I'd call it Guilty Pleasure.
