Happy Anniversary to you!!!! Congratulations!!!! Lorna Shumate 242/134

Hi, on an average day, i eat like 2 cinnamon waffles with 2 sausages (about 4 oz. total) for breakfast. for lunch it's usually leftovers from the night before, (about 4 to 5 oz. total). i usually have 1 oz of cheese and 1 oz of peanuts for an afternoon snack around 4 ish. for supper i have around 5 oz. of whatever, steak, chicken, pork, with noodles, rice or a roll. and i will have a sugar free dessert about an hour later (about 1 to 2 oz.) that is my day. i have been really fortunate to be able to eat just about anything i want. there are a few things i won't touch or my body doesn't like but it's not shy about telling me and i won't touch it again. not worth it. just like sugar, if you can live without it, do because it makes a big difference. and soda as well, i can see the difference in people around me who have made the choices. and it is a difference. and don't be discouraged, you have come so far and every lb is forever weight. it's gone forever, if you want it to be. don't give up!! congrats on your anniversary and good luck on reaching your goal, i know you can do it. if you need anything else, just let me know stacy leary [email protected] 262.5~131.0 11/14/2003

I take a prenatal vitamin and b-12 pills from Wal-Mart and my 5month check-up all of my labs were great. I don't know what it will be on the 29th, I will be going back for my yearly. My year wil be up on the 18th. I went from 221/145, size 20/8 but want to get to 125/5. You can increase your protein by eating meat. I don't do protein shakes because they make me sick so I eat alot of fish and chicken, beef jerky nuggets. I also eat every hour due to me on getting in about 2 or 3 bits each time I eat. This is just incase I don't get in enough protein.

Congratulations on your success!!! Your stats are so close to mine. I also went from a 26-28 to a size 4 and feel like a totally new person!! ((((HUGS)))) Dawn

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to share my latest shopping experience. Went to Dayton Mall on Saturday. Old Navey was having a really nice sale on all marked down items. Take another 50% off of the lowest price. Well I'm still in shock as what size I wear. I had an arm load of colthes to try on. ALL WERE TO BIG!!!! I had to go down to a size 4!!!!!!. I got $240 worth of clothes for $77. I just can't believe how my life has changed in a year. I don't know who this skinny person is that lookes back at me when I'm standing there trying on clothes. I still can't see me the way others do. I still see me as over 100lb more than I am. It's taking time for my head to catch up with my body. I also need to update my picture. The one that is up there now is pre-op and at 150. I'm now at 115. I'll have to do a 'fashion show' and have my daughter take som new pictures. LOL Ok enough babbling. Have a Great day.
