Surgery Date - June 12, 2009
Surgery Weight - 230 lbs
Goal Weight - 155 lbs
Preferred Range - 135 - 140 lbs
Today's Weight - 134.6 lbs

I have added back in healthy snacks, peanut butter and fresh mature coconuts...

FYI: http://www.cookycoconuts.com/coconutnutrition.html

I had every intention of not ever letting my weight go below 135 lbs. I am not going to worry about it, I will continue to tweak it with healthy snacks and get it back up in the healthy range.

My longer term plan is to add some muscle, that way I will weigh more without having to gain weight. I LOVE my body now more than I ever have in my life!! (However, I don't want to be underweight.)

Hi Cindy, 


I love your positive attitude. Putting on muscle is a good idea, but don't get freaked out if your weight goes up a bit.  Your healthy snacks sound yummy. Healthy snacks are so much better for your well-being than junk.

Have a wonderful day,

Gail

Hi Sweetheart...

Thank you!!  That is the plan, to gain 'muscle' weight, rather than 'fat' weight...  I don't want to gain weight from 'eating'.  I would rather gain weight from 'new muscles'...

I want to look toned, not have any bulging muscles.  So I will have to figure out how to get that look.  It will be amazing to tone up my body, when I have so little fat on it.  The muscles will probably show quite quickly...  it should be fun and a great new challenging goal.

Yes, I can't get over that I can have 3 full meals a day and healthy snacks... and maintain with that... Man life is good.  Why did I not do this sooner??

Big hugs,

Cindy

109.1 lbs


I think I am up a pound, because I am back with the weight training this week. I took a week off, because of my shoulder and I think I dropped a pound, because I lost some muscle. My eating has been on plan and I actually cut a couple of items out that were becoming problematic. It is so wonderful to know that I have some control over this. Staying within a two pound range seems to be working for me.
