Ok gang, it's a new week and I'm coming at you with a new ATTITUDE! No more EXCUSES, it's time to get my butt in gear and work MY plan. I haven't journaled my food in several weeks, my eating is way off and the scale is telling me "Whoa, enough is enough". I'm going to be doing the 5DPT starting today and then going back to lean meats and green leafy vegetables after. My surgeon's plan got me to goal in 9 months, so it works. Time to be ACCOUNTABLE. Have a Great Day!

Thanks Tracy! I know I can do this, not sure why I keep letting myself slide backward but determined to not regain no matter what it takes. Hugs,

Hi Dana!! I'm getting back on track too!! I did 3 days of liquid protein this weekend. I really didn't set out to but sometimes at work we just don't get a decent meal time. I drank my protein drinks that I kept in my water bottle on Friday cuz it was so busy. Saturday I continued because I had made it through day 1. Sunday was crazy again so I repeated the sequence. I went to bed earlier and drank more water. I did not stop drinking coffee but I have cut back considerably and quit using creamer in my coffee. Today I'm adding the soft proteins. I also called a friend that had had wls about the same time I did. She gave me some advice as she has been at goal for some time and has had 2 kids in the meantime. Snacks and/treats come after the protein and water are in for the day. She doesn't always follow that rule but for the most part she does. This sight has helped me along quite a bit too. I'm there with you!! I have some "goal" pants that I need to get back into and feel comfortable in. Good luck Dana!!! I'm getting back on track with you!! PennyB

Hey Dana....I'm right there with you girl!! I've been MIA for the past couple of months due to traveling for work and life taking over. Time to put me first again. I did really well last week and then overindulged this past weekend. The scale is definitely up, so I'm also getting back to journaling my food, pushing the protein and limiting carbs. Going to Curves after work and will add water aerobics (2x a week starting next week) to my exercise routine. Good luck....we can do this!! Mary Ellen Lap RNY 1-31-05

I did pretty good. Not doing a full liquid protein or 5DPT, but trying to up my protein drinks and not eat processed carbs. To keep the hungries away I had 4 protein shakes today! Went to Curves and did my workout, although didn't take the doglets for their evening walk cause it was just too darn hot!!
