My weigh-in results : )
Say hello to a 30 pound loss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before I got on the scale , I let the nurse know I was thinner than I was last year at this time. Her response??

Wow, you've lost a lot of weight!

My Doc asked me how I did it. I told him by l/cing for the last six months along with 4 mile walks and working out with weights. He was pleased and didn't tell me l/cing was bad or that I needed my grains & stuff. I do blood work Monday, he'll let me know about my cholesterol & sugar next week.

This was the best day ever!! Honestly I didn't think I had lost that much.

I'm very happy with myself and I'm thankful to all of you for the endless support. Y'all are wonderful!

8 more pounds to goal, then I'll be an even more happy camper.

Ok, Hummingbird, here ya go....

My own way of l/cing goes something like this....

Breakfast....3 or 4 cups of coffee
maybe a half of apple w/pb
a slice of american cheese

Snack.......mixed nuts, about a cup.
Coffee

Lunch.......Bacon & 3 eggs
Diet pepsi

Snack #2...Frozen grapes


Dinner.....A steak (large) of somekind w/ melted butter
A salad w/bleu cheese or ranch
green beans, squash or any other vegetable
H2o

Snack#2..The other half of that apple w/pb
Lots of H2o


This is pretty much how I eat every day. Once in awhile I'll change it up, but that's rare.

Hope this helps!

Wow, thanks. Really? You ate this way pretty much every day? Steak for dinner every night? No other fruit? If you made a change here and there what would it be? Ever eat chicken; turkey or fish?

That is cool that you just did your own thing.

I take it that you never drank any alcohol or ate any chocolate or even any LC desserts of any kind? Wow. If so, wow. Good for you. You are so inspiring.

You're a Coffee Queen, huh?? No cream in that coffee??

From day 1 I have ate this way. Except the first week I had oatmeal every morning to ease my way into l/c.

I eat watermelon, strawberries, blueberries, mangos, cantelope, etc.
Actually the only two fruits I don't eat are bananas & oranges.

I don't drink alcohol, I don't eat anything processed, no chocolate and no l/c desserts. If I craved them I would, but the apple & p/b do the trick.

I love, love, love coffee & I drink it black. I learned how to do that back in 1995 when I did lowfat! I cut out the cream to cut out fat & calories. (Boy was that a tough one!)

I eat fish once in awhile, tilapia is good. I love salmon.
The only chicken I eat is mild chicken wings from chili's.

That's my story!
