How is everyone doing?

Right there with you!!!! I will be geting a bonus in July and have already told my husband I am spending a chunk of it shopping. Paris should be amazing!!!! I was in London several years back and took a day trip to the coast of France. It was beautiful. Have a great time!!!!!

1.How close are you to goal? I had my surgery on November 11 2003. my weight on that day was 402. I just went to my PCP and by her scale I am 290 so i am down 110 pounds. 2.How many sizes have you dropped? Not sure I was at least a 32/34 now i can do 22/24 i may be smaller but i am enjoying my cloths loose. 3.Are you exercising (be honest )? If so what is working for you? I get in about 15 min of walkin a day. It is on of thje pluses of working with teenagers . I can work and get paid to put in my exersising. 4.What are you eating? Non of these things are in larged amounts. I do good if i get 4oz of my protien in a day. I drink lots of water. my stomach just does not hold much. Oddly i do best with pork. No not just bacon. ham ,pork lion, devil ham, tuna,some fish if cooked right, the same with chicken it must be very tender, scramble egges, cheese, rye bread 1/2 slice, cantalope, honydew,bannanas. I can eat sugar but have no taste for it. once in a while a taste is all i need. I stay away from carbs as much as i can. 5.Do you have anything special planned for when you reach goal? Well my only gaol in weight was to see a 2 in my weight. The other is to put up that tree swing i talk about in my profiel. this was a great idea to write this

1.How close to goal.....I started at 225 and am down 75lbs to 150.My goal is 135 so I have 15 lbs to go! 2.I've gone from a 20 to an 8.Some 6's fit depending on the cut. 3.I was doing a workout at home including the crosstrainer,some weights and pilate stretches.The combination took about 45 minutes every other day.I have this week started a morning mountain walk in a state park close by.It takes about 25 minutes of hard walking to get to the top!(Ouch the 1st few days)But it sure feels good after. I haven't been doing as many situps as I should.My stomach is the worst part of me since the weight loss.A TT may be in my future. 4.I usually have half an english muffin/peanut butter to start the day. During the day I snack on cheese/crackers and fruit.In the evening I eat whatever the family is having for dinner only in small portions. 5.I am going to my 25 high school reunion the end of July.I was hoping to reach my goal by then but it doesn't seem likely now,but I am very happy with where I am!
