Topic: What is everyone eating?
I have lost a total of 41 pounds. GREAT! but I feel like I am losing really slow. What is everyone eating? My surgeon says "you can eat whatever you want". I eat no breads, basically no carbs with the exception of occasionally potatoes. I fix supper for the family and usually eat a little of the meat and veggies. I snack in the middle on shelled peanuts or Southbeach bars. I am just eating normal foods is that the problem? I do walk 30 to 45 minutes every night as well.

Topic: Lemons and Limes???
My surgery was July 12, 2007...I am down about 60 pounds...NO more insulin, NO more blood pressure meds...I am thrilled...
The only thing that I crave is Ice with lemon or lime juice!! Anyone else have this strange craving???
I still am not hungry, I just eat to survive..I have to tell myself...
"you better eat or you will get sick!" OMG I never thought this would happen to me!
Topic: Minus 50 pounds!!!!!
I made it to the 50-pound mark!!! It's significant for me because the last time I did this it took me over a year. Thanks to this remarkable surgery I was able to lose 50 pounds in just over 3 months.
I'm also wearing the smallest pair of jeans I own, there's a picture of me in them on my blog.
Woo Hoo!!!
