Tess... good to hear all is will (BTW_ I had some extra swelling once the drains were remove but that was much improved in 2-3 weeks) .

I am on my next step going back -BOTT schedule.
1. low carb diet - with good foods, 5-7 meals a day (done)
2. Gave up alcohol - done - not any for over a month
3. Regular vitamins and minerals scheduled and good test results - great - done
4. Hormonal balance - done

now it is time for me to move to next steps:
1.Continue good diet - but limit calories - and qty - to get "clean" I allowed myself to eat how much I wanted - when I was hungry. Even snacking as needed (but only low carb food)
2. introduce some regular exercises - now that food and vitamins are under control - I want to schedule some moderate exercise - probably I will go back to yoga and some wii and treadmill at home.

So far I was able to keep my weight steady - with no losing or gaining.. any significant amount of weight. But now - I would like to get toned and go back to my backless dresses and my size 6 and 4 pants. I know I can do that in the next 2-3 months. (app 10 lbs loss + toning)

Plan for today:
Coffee + coconut milk
protein shake
yogurt with proteins and flax meal + 1/2 cup berries
beef stew + veggies
protein cookies or sunflower seeds (snack)
protein shake (after a massage)
meatloaf + veggies or a soup (depends how I feel)

I would like to try to go to yoga tomorrow morning (6am).. but will see if I do that- if not - at least 30 min on a treadmill in the morning.

Sounds like you have a good plan going. I keep bouncing up between 155 to 152 for the past two weeks. I still would like to see 145. My doctor told me that I could go back to walking on the treadmill with the higher incline now but no abs crunches or anything that moves my stomach area for at least 3 months. We will discuss again in August. Let's see if we can both get this last 10 lbs. off by September. I'm in.

We will.
I am so glad I am completely off alcohol. Now - others can have it and I do not feel sorry for myself ...

DARN! lost my post :(

I did ok yesterday. Not perfect, but better. Here I am trying to get bot and Im leaving Friday morning for a long weekend at the beach. Thank God I dump... Hard part for me is to keep my snacking in check. Ohhh, stay away from the 'dirty white trash' mix. ahhh, why did it just come to me?!?!?!

My trainer gave me a new recipe to try. I happen to have the ingredients so I'll try it out. Chocolate/pb/banana brownie:

1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1tsp cocoa powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda. Mix with a little water until it has the consistency of brownie batter. Cook in the microwave in 30 second intervals until done (brownie like). Frost with peanut butter and sliced banana.

My eats for today:

Coffee w/ cream
Slice Arnold double protein bread w/ skippy natural
Pure Protein bar and fruit salad
Peach and a couple cheese cubes
grilled burger for dinner (maybe 3/4 of it)
if I have time, I'll try the brownie

Bootcamp tonight

Hi Mary:

I lost my first post this morning too. :( I am going to try that brownie recipe, it sounds delicious. Just enjoy yourself at the beach and try to be good 50% of the time. :)

I love that. Sometimes I add some egg white or a whole egg (instead of water).
Make sure it is in larger container - it may raise up and spill... ***** to clean,,,

My life has been so crazy lately. My husband almost got transferred to Nashville, we have only lived in FL for 2 years. We have a 9 month old baby. We own a home. I told him I was not going haha. So he got another job, and a raise here in FL with another company. So that is a blessing. THEN I got a job with the top lawyer in town yesterday, but I have to pass the bar in its entirety. I passed 3/4 of it and the 1/4 I missed by 1 point. So now I have to take 2 tests, one July 25 and one August 15. I have to pass or I lose my awesome new job. SO hubs and I both start new jobs, and I have to pass the bar exam. AND get my 9 month old in a good childcare place.

Stress, anyone? I have actually lost weight this time due to it, at 187.

breakie - protein shake
lunch - gumbo, no rice and bites of hub's salad with ranch and meat
snack - protein shake
dinner - not sure yet...

Tess, in regards to the swelling...it will go down...I will tell my plastic surgery saga another day
