Protein Train! All Aboard!!!

OK, ok so I might be getting carried away. I think this is going to be a wicked cool idea. I am soooooooo thankful that DeeDee is taking the lead on this since I am a procratinator and might not post it daily. I messed up first thing this morning but have put it behind me and am on the train now. I WILL NOT jump off, I need the ride! TooT TooT!!! Here we go!!!!! Theresa

Right there with ya! I was already doing the morning vows so I just vowed to do the protein train with you and everyone else who wants to join in. Keep us updated on how you're doing --- we CAN do this!! DeeDee

Hi Theresa....will you please tell me what a protein train is? does it mean that you are only eating protein??? or would you tell me what you are doing to get back on track...Thanks Hugs, Valori

Hi Valori! If you check out DeeDee's post at: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/member-interests/wls_grads/postdetail/6296.html?vc=0 You will see what many of us are doing. For me it is mostly getting back on track. Dee Dee has provided me with a good set of guidelines and everyone here will support me and each other through it. I have to say that I was feeling like a real loser till I saw how many are in the same place I am. We are not losers! Together we can and WILL lose those pounds we put back on or bust that platue. I am one determined person right now! TOOT TOOT!!! ALL ABOARD! Theresa

Thank you so much..I am hopping on the train! I have been on a plateau for a couple of months now and want to get off my last 28lbs!! Hugs, Valori

Good Gawd Kim!!! 80 ounces already????????????? What do you do, get up at 3am? I have only managed to get in 20 ounces and that included grams of protein! I guess I best get on the water train! Chooooo Chooooooo Theresa

Count me onboard this train I've already had my protein drink before my work out just got home had a protein bar plan on getting my water too ! Kristy

Toottt, tootttttt....I'm hitching a ride on this train too...... This morning had my coffee, two oz of crab and three oz of beef jerky for a snack. Only 16oz of water so far today, but I'll get it in before bed tonight....... Feeling good. Glad to see so many are participating !!!!!

Count Me In To This Train: I work for a Railroad so trains are a normal daily routine for me. Can you all tell me if I'm doing ok with what I've eaten today. I started with 412 lbs. on 9/28/03 and I'm currently at 260. I have gone from a size 50/52 to a current size of 18/20. I'm 5'8" tall with large bones. My weight management physician says that I'm more than likely at the end of my losing, but we will try for at least another 30-35 lbs. Because of my height and large body build, I really look like 185-195 lbs. I feel great and I know I look great. However, I'm trying really hard to get those last few pounds off and this Train perhaps is my ultimate answer to this. B: 4 oz lowfat cottage cheese 3 oz carb countdown peach flavored yogurt S: Protein Drink w/ Protein Bar L: Small can of Spinich (heated in microwave) 4 slices lowfat deli cheese (Land o Lakes) 4 slices genoa salami from deli S: Protein Drink w/ Protein Bar D: 4 slices cheese bar 6-8 pieces boneless chicken (4 oz) S: Protein bar Other Liquids: (2) Large size Decaf Dunkin Donuts Coffee (Toasted Almond Flavored Decaf) with Skim Milk Only Water: 32 Ounces I look forward to hearing from you all. I really really really need help. I've purchased a "search a word "book so that when watching TV, I can do that, drink my liquids and not "snack" on items (i.e. popcorn). Have a great day.

Nice to know that so many are trying to eat right. Add me to the list. So far today: 6 oz. roasted chicken breast 51 oz. water I may add a protein bar this afternoon for a snack, and I'll probably finish with a protein drink since I have school tonight from 6-10
