At 6 months out can you give me an idea as to what you are eating and serving

size portions?

Thanks,

I've made my goal and I'm a very happy lady now. Keep up the good work, every

one goes through lots of emotions about this until you get to the other side and

right after you go through some, then it only gets better. Donna

Kristie,

I eat protein, protein, protein. I don't use protein shakes like many, food keeps me full. I eat still meals 4 hours apart, no drink when eating, stopping 10 minutes before and not drinking until 1 hour later. I eat 4ozs for breakfast, lunch and dinner, if I crave any thing in between I have broth, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles or diet snapple which can be counted as water intake, but it's still good to get real water. With this I write down every thing and what there calories are and add as I go and don't go over 1000 calories a day. I'm now at 143 and working to get to 135 where I will stop. As time passes so does the fast weight lose, so watching every thing you do is so important and get as much weight off in the first 6 months as possible and continue as long as you possibly can, I hear after 1 year it's much harder. That's why I've pushed so damn hard and it has worked.
