Birthday Surprise: 50lbs Down!

[PrettyThick1 1,860]

I think the happiest birthday gift I got came from my scale yesterday. When I read 169.2 I was in awe and had to step back on to make sure it wasn't playing one of it's cruel jokes on me again. It wasn't! This morning I weighed in at 169.0 and I'm tickled pink! Miss Pearlie is doing her job and she continues to make me happy! I've only hit short plateaus during this journey - a week or less at a time. My secret? Increase your Protein by 20 - 25g over what you normally consume, in 3 days the scale is moving again.

Have a great week everyone!

Big congrats!!! You are truly working that band!! You are right about the Protein, I once ate moist roasted chicken for a few days and drop 7 pounds that week.
