I tend to eat a ton of protein and very few carbs. For a snack I eat almonds, cheese and fruit. I also use the whey protein shakes. It works very well for me. Might be worth checking out.

Drat, no change in weight this week. BUT I did go to the gym everyday. I can feel my sore tight abs. And I am off to Yoga two more times this week. No dance on Monday, its a holiday here. I will miss my Zumba.

I guess what I should not have done was wait until after my patients left to have supper... I should probably try to eat between the time I get home from the gym and the time they arrive.

And I think drinking sweet yummy wine (alot) this week has had its toll on my weight. Stupid wine points. Why can't it be free like bananas are now?

I want to start a campaign to treat wine fairly and equally and to stop the discrimination against the beauty of its full figured grapeyness.

I WILL NOT BE DETERRED

... from counting all my points.

Wine you will have to go back to being my occassional friend. I still love you, even if I let your bottle get dusty. Not touched, but not forgotten either.

Me to,I eat plenty of protein,my fix is chedar cheese and rye crisp or pork skins with peanut butter.I dont hardly eat fruit anymore cause of the fruit cose/carbs.I keep seasoned chicken strips I grill in a covered bowl so if I want to eat I can munch on them or hard boiled eggis..then there is celery and pemento cheese to crunch on.

Today's weigh-in showed a loss of 1.2 for a total of 17. Seven pounds to goal weight. The tape measure tells quite a tale with a total loss of 3.75 inches around the belly. Blows my mind!

I went over to a friend's house last night and even though she lives fairly close by car, maybe two minutes when driving, the walks is more like 20 minutes or so and her boyfriend offered to walk Me home. I asked him if he was crazy? This is like midnight mind you so I just was not in the mood but he insisted so he walked Me from My friend's house to My home, twenty minutes! We talked the whole way to My place and having him to chat with passed the time and in a blink of an eye I was home. Holy hell did My back *EVER* hurt but I felt alot better afterwards so I plan on walking to her house and back home more often :-)

I love walking and if I could get a set schedule, I would walk to the bus stop and take the bus to work instead of driving my car.

Congrats my friend and keep it up!

Zimmy,

The walk was alot nicer than I thought it was, I guess I was findng excuses to not walk that distance when it really wasn't a big deal ~ I'm surprised at how it didn't take long at all to walk that far. I think I'm going to start a schedule where since I'm stuck in the house all day watching My sister, I'm going to start taking walks in the morning before My parents leave for work. I'll start with, say, twenty minutes in total ~ ten minutes one way and ten minutes back then after say a couple of weeks of getting used to that I'll increase it by five minutes.

I'm feeling pretty good today and plan on keeping it up :-)
