Half-Way To My Goal!!!
I'm getting more and more excited to finally reach my goal, and now I'm half-way. I'm adding new, healthy, high protein, low cal foods to my diet (thanks to the daily menu posts, you guys have all the best ideas!), and it's getting easier and easier. I'm doing less vomiting, although some food still give me trouble (like eggs), or absolutely REFUSE to be tolerated (like melon). I haven't had a single bite of bread, pasta, rice or potatoes since pre-op, and didn't even lick the chocolate icing off the side of my friend's birthday cake last week! So, I've been good, I've stuck to the program 100%.
I have been in a bit of a stall for about 2 weeks. It's taken me 10 days to get from 59 to 60 pounds, whereas I was losing 4 pounds a week steadily. I'm wondering... is this the end of my honeymoon (at 3 months), or is it just a stall? Anyone?
Here's me this morning squeezed into my goal-pants!!

You look great, and I'm certain it is just a small stall you are in. The weight will start coming off again. But don't count on 4 pounds per wee****il goal, because it does get slower the closer you get to goal...but it still keeps moving, which is all that matters. Awesome job sticking to the plan 100%!! That's fantastic!
