i don't mind at all...i want all my fellow bandsters to succeed and get to goal...i always plan my meals...for instance to day i had 1 chicken sausage and a 1/2 of a 1/2 piece of cheese...for lunch i made chicken...mushroom and spinach pesto...4 dinner..i will probably have an egg dish...i also eat chicken fajitas...tuna salad...egg salad..ground turkey mixed with refried beans (like the inside of a burritto)...bolied eggs...celery and pnut butter...i was always on the atkins diet...b4 my band...i would lose a lot of weight to gain it all back and then some...so i associate a lot of what i use to eat on atkins with what i eat now...except my portions arent enuff to feed 5 people..i stay away fom bread..rice..pasta..i do eat dairy..milk cheese..eggs..i love salsa anything i can eat with salsa..i'm happy with...i eat red meat on occassion...red meat tends to really fill me up...if i eat it for lunch...sometimes i cant eat dinner...so i try not to eat 2 much...i like to get all 3 meals in

I am totally satisfied on 1/2 cup of food 3xs a day...i will freak out and be real crabby if i feel hungry!!!!1lol...thats y convential diets never worked 4 me...i cant stand to feel hungry...if worse comes to worse...i will eat a tablespoon of p-nut butter...most bandsters will tell u thats a myth...but it seems to satisfy me...or at least hold me over or a banana...those r my 2 hold over foods if i really need something to eat inbetween meals...on days i work out real heavily...i need a little extra...i'm afraid to start bad eating habits so i stay away from snacking as much as possible.

i honestly never kept track of how much i lost per week...i honestly don't own a scale...if i would've focused on weekly weight loss that would've drove me crazy...i do know at my 6th week appt. i had lost 37 pounds...in the month of december i lost 22 pounds..i dont know when or how much the rest came off...my loss has slowed down a lot...the closer i get to goal the less i lose...which is perfectly normal...i estimate my weight right now to b around 163...which is a loss of 133 pounds...but i dont know 4 sure...i have a dr. appt on july 28th and thats when i have an exact #. i refused to let myself get all wrapped up in #s and just let this happen 4 me...i know ur going to do great...post some new pics a.s.a.p.!!!!! i'm waiting!!! lol

50 pounds!!!!!!!!!!! don't come down on urself...50 pounds is a lot of weight to lose....my exercise routine is all cardio...i need to take my flabby butt to the gym...but have no motivation to go...i have all the motivation in the world to do cardio exercise...but when it comes to the gym...i dont know what my problem is...i power walk/jog for at least an hour and a half to 2 hours 6-7 days a week...i do not count my calories any more...i measure my portion to b a half cup...i do not snack...but i'm not big on counting...i eat what i like...with an exception to rice...pasta and bread...no sweets either...but i don't have a sweet tooth...my motivation is the way i feel...i was absolutely misreable being over weight....i dont think i'll ever 4get that feeling...i'm on a natural high...i cant go back...i look at food as food...it taste good for a minute...but the damage can stay on u for a lifetime

i began walking immediately...the day i came home from the hospital i started walking up my street...as i felt better i added to my walking routine...from my first visit with my surgeon...he told me to walk...walk...walk...keep walking...i ate soup out of the top of a medicine bottle the first few weeks....and drank a lot...i look at it like this...i enjoyed food long enuff...it didnt get me anywhere but in the hospital to have to have surgery to repair the damage it did to my body...its only food...it satisfies u for a few minutes and then leaves u with a fat...unhealthy body...

and don't find excuses not to exercise...i could come up with an excuse everyday not to exercise...but if u want to excuse urself from being fat...its something u have to do!!!!!!!!!!

my advice to u...is to start walking immediately!!!!!!!!! start walking the day u come home from the hospital...if u can only walk around the corner...!!!!!! and add to ur routine every 3 to 4 weeks....exercise is a must!!!! u will get big results from exercising...i promise!!!!!my surgeon told me to walk...walk...walk...everytime i saw him...i listened...litended...listened!!! lol
