Quick Update
May 11, 2011
Hey everyone!I haven't had time to update my profile lately as things have been kind of crazy. I'm just going to do a quick update for you.
I'm currently down to about 232 pounds... as you remember, I started at 309 and the day of surgery I was 303, so I'm doing excellent! It's been about 3 1/2 months since surgery, so I am well on my way to lose 100 pounds in 6 months! That is my goal... my ultimate goal is to weigh 155 pounds.
I've been doing a lot better with not snacking! Though I've learned some things don't sit well with me sometimes. One night we had ham for dinner (baked with pineapple) and for some reason it didn't sit right. Maybe I didn't chew enough.
My other issue I was having was finding items to eat for breakfast, because at the moment I can't cook eggs or anything. I really only have the option of having cereal, toast, muffin, etc due to our current living situation (which I'm not going to discuss right now). So we don't have a stove to cook things otherwise I wouldn't have an issue with breakfast. Usually I can eat half a bagel with cream cheese, but I really don't like eating that EVERYday because it gets old, lol.
I did want to share a really good drink I found recently. Since we can't do soda or juices (too much sugar!)... I was trying to find something with FLAVOR, because I was getting tired and bored with drinking water. I know there is Crystal Light, but I only like about 2 flavors so that gets old fast too LOL... Anyway... POWERADE ZERO! No calories and no sugar! It's amazing. I get the fruit punch flavor. It also helps because it's hot here in FL so it's replacing electrolytes I'm losing in my sweat, hahah.
I hope all my ladies out there are doing great! Sorry I haven't been in touch. I hope you are all doing well.
