Good morning to you! I'm not sure I am awake yet either. I did manage to step on the scale this morning, and I am glad did because I hit a new low this morning at 163.6. I hope I can keep it going downward instead of going back up to 164-165 where I seem to have been hanging out forever.

I have been using My Fitness Pal which is an excellent tool for tracking calories, protein, carbs etc., however, I found what I was doing because the website had calculated my daily calorie goal at 1200 in order to lose 2 pounds a week, was eating up to that goal. In other words, when I would get home after work and check what had had eaten, and if it wasn't up to 1200 calories yet, I would just keep grazing until I got there. So now I am still using M FP to track everything, but I am not really looking at the numbers until I am ready for bed. At that point in time I just go in there and end the day, and have a look to see what my intake looked like. For the few days I have been doing this, I am reaching 1000-1100 calories.

Have a great day!

Morning all,

Actually did a fair amount of walking yesterday with a cane. I feel like my recovery is moving along well now. Still up 2.4 pounds from pre-surgery, but I'm not worried. Beautiful sunny, but chilly day expected here in Northern California. My brother and sil coming for a visit this evening. Things are headed back to normal!

HW: 284: SW: 274: CW: 152.8. Goal: 159

You look great! Really! Love the cufflinks! I admire your emphasis on group during your speech and that the "cure" is multi faceted. Thanks for posting the link. I very much enjoyed your speech.
