Hey!!!  I spoke with the surgeons receptionist and I need to be down to 330.  That is only 7lbs away.  I have a good feeling that I will reach that goal by mid week.  I know that sounds like a lot of weight to lose in 5 days but I think I can do it but I will give myself until Friday.

I managed 2 miles in 45 min last night and hope to do it again tonight but even if I can't do 2 miles I will do some even if its just dancing in the living room.  I actually like it.  It makes me feel as though I have accomplished something huge.  Even though I am tired after wards I feel emotional good and my mind is running clearly.  I can only imagine how it would feel without all of the extra baggage on me.  I am sure that it will only feel better as the time goes by. 

I still need to focus on getting more protein in especially since I have only been eating veggies and some fruits.  I will try and utilize the jar of peanut butter in the shelf and buy some tofu.  I think Tofu and squash sound good together and maybe add a bit of purple onion and crushed red peppers.  I give it to my daughter over brown rice.  I will not eat the rice though.  That sounds really good to me.  Maybe even add some baby Bella mushrooms.  I think I am getting hungry so I need to take another pill and a shake.  I need to try and stretch the hunger till about 4pm  though.  If it gets to bad I will just have to have a shake early.

Thanks again for all of the support.
