Just to get it started. Red plan, no lites.

7/5, joined up. 253.6 lbs.
7/10, meal plan day. 251.4 lbs.
7/12, first official weigh in. 249.6 lbs. Total loss 4 lbs.
7/19, second official weigh in. 245.8 lbs. Total loss 7.8 lbs.

I had no (official) questions, and she had absolutely nothing to say about my food journal. (Because it's all there, no cheats.)

Now, just gotta do that 39 more times!

To answer your questions about them telling me the change things, nope that is before the big plateau. They practically yelled at me for eating oatmeal and raisins everyday. I understand about the raisins cause they turn to sugar but the oatmeal? I never understood. When you make it with the 1/4 c. oatmeal to 3/4 water what do you count that as? 1 starch or 2? I also add a little splenda brown sugar instead of the syrup. It is yummy. Also have you seen the McCromick Grinders in Cinnamon now. It is delicious.
About your heel? I too have heel spurs and problems, I was referred to these insoles that I order from ALIMED corp. I have all the info if you are interested. I buy 2 pair a year and have for 5 years. Best thing I ever tried. I tried everything from the magnets to steroid shot, you name it I tried it, but these were heaven sent. Let me know and I will post the info.
I believe I will go back to some oatmeal, as I am tired of the tortillas with egg in them for breakfast.
Thanks for the info on your life, haha

One starch!


According to my oatmeal's packaging, 1/4 c. of oats, prepared, is 70 calories. :)

Jess,


Hope you enjoyed the BBQ today -- ours will be in July.


Soundsl like a good idea to maximize the the time you spend working out vs adding more time.


Hope the heel starts to heal soon.

Thanks I will probably try oatmeal again. I love it, and could eat it everyday. My husband hates it, he says it smells great but is nasty. Reminds him of paper mache..

hope your headache's gone today, jess. and that this is a better day than yesterday!

did you get a chance to go grocery shopping?

what's your pleasure on netflix lately? i'm considering joining nf myself. mindless movies are my escape venue lately from the craziness at work lately. :-) though, days trumps movies any day.
