I can't believe it has been this long since I updated.  I am doing very well.  Lot's of energy.  Had about 4 days a couple a weeks ago where I wasn't feel up to par so when to PCP, and found out it was time to come off the blood pressure medication.  Within about three days, I was back to feeling great. 
I have found that I have a hard time getting in vegatables.  I crave fruit so would rather eat that than green beens.  Once in a while I do manage a few bites of steamed broccoli but really need to work on getting in some veggies.  I still use a Adkins Advantage Shake with 1 scoop of protein powder to make sure I get my protein in.  Still working on the water.  I have found i can no longer handle just plain water.  Can not handle Crystal Light anymore.  The only thing I can drink are grape Propel or grape flavored Aquafine.  I resently tried grape KoolAid but have to add extra water as it is too strong.  I am only getting in about half of the suggested fluids so need to step that up.  That maybe why the weight loss is slowing to only about one to two pounds a week.  It has been 3 months so actually 58 pounds is a super weight loss but like everyone else, I want it now!   Of course, it took longer than 3 months to get to 250 pounds on a 5 ft 3 1/2 in frame.  I no longer have to go to the large womens side of the stores.  I wear XL tops from the Misses dept. as well as 16 pants.  It feels great to be able to buy regular sizes for a change!
