3 months post update and question?!
Yay! That's including the 15 pds I lost during optifast! Iv had my ups and downs but this has been a true gift from God and I'm so encouraged by everyone on here for their stories and supportI have 1 question,I had to reschedule my 3 month check up due to weather and I can't find my booklet of how many ounces/portions I am supposed to be eating in one sitting? For example if I was to eat a hamburger by itself that weighs aprox. 3ounces,is that too much meat in one meal? Thankyou everyone!!! Keep your chins up
Congrats with your 3 months out and your 67 pound loss! Just wonderful.
If you can tolerate the beef (not everybody can) - I would then for sure make it myself out of very lean ground beef and grill it.
I use very lean ground beef in Shepard pie and little meat balls (wls book recipe)
The 3 oz is ok - but I would not eat a commercially available hamburger - just my choice. Too much fat.
Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

If you use myfitnesspal.com to track foods there are hundreds of choices when it comes to nutrient levels. 3 ounces would be fine, skip the fatty condiments and buns. Let your pouch be your guide. Meat is a grand source of protein! For now eat until you're full on protein if you can imo. Congrats of your success to date! 
Luvmy2kidz... I am sure your ok long as was said, not a burger from Wendy's or McDonalds..
I use lean ground Turkey or Chicken for burgers, and Cloud Bread for a bun. :).
*****WOOT IAN way to go on that last pound.. Grats hun. :)
