Getting honest worked!

Since my post a few days ago, I am down almost 4 pounds! For me, cutting down on my snacks really helped. I also found my knitting needles, and plan to pick them up and make dish clothes and listen to a book on tape when I have those "I gotta eat something" moments (hours?days?). God bless everyone, and the journey we have undertaken. Linda O.

Gald to hear that it helped... Good Luck!!!! Shawn M.

Good for you! It never hurts any of us to take a brutally honest look at ourselves. I'm glad that it paid off for you.

Good going....It is really great that you were able to pinpoint your problems and kickstart your weight loss again. WTG!

LOL.. I just saw my Dr today & he wasnt happy.. he said I was snacking too much. He told me to eat 2/3 cup of protein in meat, chicken, cheese or fish. 3 times a day. Drink water or in my case decaf, unsweet ice tea & thats it, NO SNACKS, NO protein shakes (which is fine with me.I hate protein shakes) He said I should have been down in the 180's already, which WOULD make an 80 pound weight loss so far...BUT..NOOOOOO He wasnt happy with my 62 pound loss so far. I weigh 197 today, my next appt is in May & he said if I stuck to this plan I would be down in the 160''s/170's by then....so we'll see. It's gonna be tough I have had NO snacks so far today, as shocking as that is for me. I had a trail mix power bar for b fast, A JR Arby's roast beef sandwich minus the bun for lunch & a 4oz tabilit fish baked for dinner...tonight will be the tough part, I like my after dinner snack..LOL
