Hi Petty! You know what your doing! . Continued success to you I love reading your posts..I get the tickle fits sometimes! You are so funny!

Hi Patty! I hadn't been tracking my calories since last May until today, because I thought, good grief, I can hardly eat enought to keep a fly alive so what the hay, and why bother?! It's just that now, it's getting so that I can eat a whole sandwich, a big one! I had a trukey bacon, cheese, lettuce and tomatoe sandwich on toasted Rye for breakfast yesterday and again this morning..and I could have taken a few more bites if it were bigger..Yes, I was still hungry after eating that whole sandwich, but I waited for my hour and a half to go by, and then went for the water, crystal light or what ever and the whole time, I'm thinking after I get the drink down (about 30oz) what am I going to eat..and I eat something, but keep it light like cottage cheese but really, I'm wanting to eat another sandwich. LOL I am getting worried about the amount of food I'm able to comfortably eat now. It feels like I didn't even have surgery! I hope I can control myself in the future..I feel like I'm about to fall off of the wagon.. I'll keep watching my intake using fitday..I'm hopeing this is just one of those couple of good days where I'm able to eat well..and next week I'll be back to wanting nothing and forceing myself..you know what I mean? I'm right on top of goal, and maybe this is where I get off the loser wagon (it's a fun ride)..That's OK..just so the scales don't start moving UP!!! I'm wondering if I'm alone in this..if other's are experianceing hunger like me..I don't want anyone, including myself to let this thing get away with them. We have to support each other..that's why we are HERE..

I have never counted the calories. I don't know if this is good or bad. I do read the carb content on every thing. It was the bad carbs that help me get into this mess in the first place. My lost has really slowed. I never do them together. I am either dropping pounds or dropping inches. I have never done both at the same time. Thats ok with me just as long as something dropped. My doctor never sat a goal for me and I haven't either. Other than the fact that I am dead sat against being a size 2, 4, 6, 8, 10!!!! I wasn't a 2 when I was two so I don't care to be a 2 now. The first time in his office he said if I made it to 180 that would be nice. Remember I came from 315! I only have 11 pounds to get to 180 so I am really ok with my self. I like how I look now. If I loose more than 11 that will be fine also just as long as I never gain another POUND. From 315 to 191 without counting calories I don't think I'll mess up a good thing by starting. If it ain't broke don't fix it

I just came from www.fitday.com I put in what I ate yesterday, and I took in about 1100 calories! With my suppliments, looks like I'm getting all the nutrition I need except for Vit. K..but with a 10oz glass of green tea added to my diet, that will help. I'm still losing, but I've been slowing down a lot. How about you?

I have more pictures that are now also outdated. I am not a computer person and I have just about given up trying to get them on line. If you see a puter flying by Deer Park from the island don't worry its just mine
