Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Thursday, Apr28/11

Well I dropped from the 105 yesterday right down to 102.8 today.  It must have been sodium from Chinese hot and sour soup.  I could tell something was up when my skinny jeans were a bit loose in the afternoon.  I was also extra careful yesterday, so that didn't hurt either.  All is good.

whoo hoooo Elina you skinny thang.   Put those skinny jeans in the dryer. we all need our tightest ones for this event.    Diane

My hero! 

119.5 and a trip this weekend. I always seem to drop a couple on trips in spite of eating well. go figure. kind of don't want to lose any more and probably should put a couple back. meeting the dietician tomorrow to discuss this.

Diane, I think you need to increase good fat.  For example, you might want to try to add a half of an avocado to your diet.  It increases your calories and is really good for you.  What do you think?

sounds like a plan. i eat a big old blob of peanut butter every night!  maybe need more. amy had said to have an extra protein drink (blech) and to switch to 1% milk. i did that some but have cholesterol issues that dr. c got wigged out about (not that bad) so trying to limit dairy fat to the stuff i really like . have some avocados here now and will eat tonight. i am just so sure those pounds will come sneaking back that i hate to do anything drastic.  diane

You know I have the same fear, but the pounds wont just all jump back at once, we would have plenty of warning first.  So I think it is important to stabilize now and avocados are great for that.  I would also start using more full fat everything.  Not too much, just another 100-150 cal. a day.  That would be my plan, but see what the new NUT says.
