Well it’s been one hell of a month, both good and bad. I can't believe it’s already been a month. I am not up to par on vitamins, protein, food intake or water but I am pretty close. I was walking 2 miles everyday but my husband brought home bronchitis from work and I have been very sick for almost 2 weeks. I have also platued. I think this is because I have not been able to get my protein in and exercise while sick.
Water is going down great now. I am so relieved about that. I have thrown up everyday. I can't do chicken or turkey unless it’s a deli sliced. Anything other than that, no matter how moist or saucy, I will throw it up. I have taken two bits of ground beef and had absolutely no problem. I am still struggling with eating to fast or too much. I pay the price, let me tell you.
Overall, if it were not for the bronchitis I think I would feel great. I am down exactly 40 pounds, even with a stall. I can't complain. I think weight loss will slow way down in the upcoming months but that’s okay too.

Lyns, you are doing great!! 40 pounds in the first month is fantastic! As for eating too fast, one suggestion the psych made at 1 month class, was to put the utensil down between bites and take 3 deep breaths before taking the next bite. I have found this helps me slow down. Keep up the good work!
