I have my surgery on March 11th as of today, I use a cpap machine at night and it has been a little over a year since I started using it. I am so hoping and praying that some point after my surgery I can get rid of the cpap machine. I thank God for it but at the same time I am sick of it. I see lots of people with cpap machines that are not overweight but I am still hoping anyway. Your picture is too funny, I know where you are coming from.

Just think.... maybe someday we can say good bye to our CPAP machines!!!

I need to follow your lead and clean my closets too. Since everything fits and I like it all it is hard to choose. I do think I like clothes better now than ever. Size 10 jeans are just too much fun. !

Congrats!!! Love the picture~ We all have our own personal triumphs..you reached yours! Mine is to sit in a plane without squishing myself into the seat and crouding my seat mates. I fly next week...can't wait!

Congratulations on your milestone event!

What a wonderful way to share your success! Congratulations...an inspiration for all of us...

Good for you! My hubby suggested a cancer 5K walk. I think that would be great!

You are our Super Star! It did take great courage to come out and tell everyone. I'm very proud of your success and your willingness to share that with everyone that might to struggling too.

Where are you on your level? Regular food or soft food? I mix it up every day pretty much, but I have my standbys: Special K protein cereal (sometimes with 1/2 banana), 2 servings of skim milk/day, 4 wheat thins w/ 1 oz pepper jack cheese, 2% cottage cheese w/ fruit mixed in, pure protein bars, greek yogurt smoothies, flat out "chips" with salsa or hummus. Today I'm having: B: 1/2 cup special K w/ 1/2 c skim milk L: 1/2 serving of leftover meatloaf D: small bowl of leftover chicken stew (MIL recipe- even better the next day) Snacks: 12 oz skim milk, 1/2 cup 2% cottage cheese with no sugar added mandarin oranges, flatout chips with salsa for dipping I don't alwys eat what I have dished out- usually there's leftovers. I am 8 weeks out today- will be adding salads and nuts here in about a week- can't wait to make my own trail mix. I am not a no-or super low carb fanatic- I eat some carbs. My weight loss has been fine, I think. 37 lbs in 8 weeks. Total weight loss: 67 lbs -Kendra

I have done a 4 eggs and 6 oz.tuna combo, in a frying pan slow heat turn over shred low fat mozzarella cheese. Divide in 1/4. You can add stir fry veggies too. applesauce I have mixed cottage cheese with apple sauce banana with Tblsp of Better'n Peanut Butter spread over it (find out when you are cleared to have the peanut butter) vegetarian refried beans ( which I add cooked ground turkey- add cumin and shred mozzarella) Salads - add chicken, tuna or shrimp. Make sure everything measure 1/4 cup/ meal there are lots of recipes here too: http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/
