    I ate too much starch today. I'm supposed to only starch around my exercise schedule. Tomorrow I will be better.
    It takes to time to adjust since I usually eat starch in my meals.

    :flowerforyou: akgrant, glad to hear from you...congrats on getting past your midpoint......how is your shoulder recovery going?....does it feel better? are you following doctor's directions?

    Thanks Barbie, I am doing alot better actually. Shoulder is coming along, it's still very sore put not as painful. I'm thinking I can start walkin on the treadmill in a few days! 2 more weeks with the sling then physical therapy. Thanks for asking!

    I saw your weight lost pics too! You look awesome! Wow! Seeing the numbers is one thing but seeing the pics really makes a difference! Good job! You are truly inspiring!!!

    Would anyone like to do a no carb challenge for a week... Meaning No potatoes, White breads, Pasta, Yams... and so on
    My biggest issue is carbs and i would like to kick out all carbs to see how my body does and if it will help with my weight lost...

    :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: I haven't eaten white bread or pasta in months. I sometimes have a yam or sweet potato or brown rice. I eat kashi cereal or oatmeal for a bedtime snack.

    I don't think no carb would work for me, but limiting carbs is something I could do. I've found that lean meat, salads, and steamed veggies provide me with a lot more food for fewer calories.

    I did the atkins diet before and lost some weight but I prefer limiting the carbs to about 60 grams a day. That's not completely cutting them out but 60 grams is a small amount if you are use to eating alot of carbs! I'll take this challenge!

    I need to take the water challenge too! Since I'm not at work with a water bottle on my desk, I can't believe how little water I drink!

    Now that the holidays are over, I feel like I can finally focus again!
