    Fantastic. You give us all hope. Keep us tuned in on your progress. What is your goal weight?

    Thank you! I hope it gives someone the little nudge they need to get started, its so worth it.

    I'm not really sure about a goal weight - ill just keep losing until I'm happy with my reflection.

    Wow! That's amazing! I give you props for being able to eat the same foods....I'm trying to cut out on my carbs...but I think I'm doing well. Do you cook your food the same way or spruce them up a little so it's not so simple?? I'm not much of a chicken fan, but every week I try a new recipe about once or twice....hoping to start eating it more.

    Great job again and keep it up!

    Fantastic work! It can be tough to have such a limited diet, but it can be liberating too. No decisions to really make, t just becomes part of the routine

    Haha totally agree.

    Take the decisions out of it once you find something that works and you cant go wrong ;).

    You're totally awesome and inspiring. Thank you for posting your pics and sharing your story. You look great.
    I tend to stick to the same meals, too. If I have too many choices I tend to want to go to the corner and suck my thumb. Too much chaos for the old noggin. I gotta make this a easy as possible and for me that means less choices. It kind of keeps me in a comfort zone and it works for me.

    I have expanded my horizons, though, and have four breakfast options now. :laugh:

    Definitely. Losing weight is hard enough as it is and has so many variables. Streamlining it and making it as simple as possible for yourself makes it much more manageable.

    Thanks so much for sharing, I eat the same foods all the time and have a huge amount of weight to get rid of, it is inspiring to know that it can be done. I find it much easier sticking with the same foods , and now I don't crave anything sweet. I hope you are super proud of yourself .

    It can definitely be done no matter how much you have to lose.

    Early on I had periods of being discouraged, like its tough when you stand on the scale after weeks or months of working hard and still having 100+ pounds to lose. I just started trying to focus on what I'd already achieved rather than what I still had left to lose. Easier said than done but I think weight loss is all about mindset and getting in a bad one can be disaster.
