Have you talked to your surgeon about the belching? I had trouble for awhile and I had to give up fruits and red sauce. My stomach and bladder couldn't handle the acid.
Sounds Good!

Do you still drink the Snickerdoddle Protein? Is it any good? Does it blend well?

I'm the same height as you and I got down to 98 pounds and then Stupidly decided I was low enough. I would try to go as low as you can. I really liked 112 when the scales started back up but I have settled in the 118-119 range. At least try to get the 100 lb. loss apple for your signature....I'm so jealous of those!

Thanks Gina! It sounds like he has to have another surgery. They are going to schedule another nerve test.
Sounds Good!

I've never heard that before but I can believe it. I've noticed I feel strange and a little shaky if I don't even often enough. My body is use to numerous snacks all day.
Did you have a "FULL" sign? I've heard of LW's that get a runny nose and then others like me who hiccup. I use to hiccup if I just took one bite to much. I don't get the hiccups very often now but I'm pretty careful not to over eat.

I'd be perfectly happy to settle around 118, but I know I have to take rebound into account. I'm going to do my very best to get under 110 before that happens. I don't think I'll be happy back up at 130. I plan to keep my "happy place" between 110-120, but I'll narrow that window down once I reach maintenance.
In my youth I was comfortable between 105-108, but I don't think that's a reasonable expectation at my age.

Been eating more carbs than I like for over a month, it's time to get back to the business of losing fat from this pudgy tummy. I'm planning a meat week next week. I want to drop another 9 lbs by May 16, and eating crappy isn't gonna get me there.
So, back to basics today.
Coffee with cream
Breakfast: High Protein Waffle
Snack: Greek Yogurt
Lunch: More coffee, but with a scoop of protein
Snack: Pecans or cheese stick (haven't decided)
Dinner: Chicken tenders with Slatherin' Sauce
Extra Protein: If needed, a premier shake

That's awesome that your sister is going to be closer to you.
Sounds like you are a woman of Many talents!!! I don't do physical labor....LOL. Even though you ate bad you probably burnt a lot of calories doing all of that hard work.
I was very happy to see 118 this morning too. My "Good" weight span is 118-120 and recently I've been bouncing between the 120-121 range. I blame my higher numbers on not eating enough so I increased my Protein calories and it worked. It hasn't upset me terribly but it was nice to see the scales move in the right direction.

I'm not able to get on the Internet during the day unless I do it on my Kindle. I'm working for a clinic that doesn't allow us to use the Internet for personal use. I'm using OH to post my eats. Really don't want to mess with a program where you need to add the stats of everything you eat.
Roz, hope your DH gets some help.
Another day gone well. I'm having serious tummy problems though. After a meal, I'm belching for hours and really uncomfortable. I'm taking an antacid. I'm fine in the mornings having a shake. Lunch today was meatballs and salad. I have a problem with beef or chicken that is microwaved. The taste is just awful. Tomorrow I'm taking soup for lunch.
Today's eats:
Click shake (15 g)
2 slices Pepperjack cheese (8 g); 2 Akmak crackers
2 meatballs; salad w/cheese, boiled egg, 4 strawberries
Protein bar (8 g)
Moon cheese (10 g)
Ham, zuchinni, green beans
