Well done!! My sister had bypass surgery and I know how hard that was for her. I just can't make myself do it. So I keep working on doing it the old-fashioned way. You look incredible!

Congratulations! That's a big deal!

I've had to do it cold turkey. No cheats or I go right back down the rabbit hole. Then I feel sick and my belly gets bigger and my wieght goes up. Sugar has a greater effect on my blood pressure than salt does. It really spikes if I eat too much. If I am eating it it's already too much. WIthout sugar my BP is around…

I have found that if I am craving sugar (and I am ahuge sugar addict) that I am short on veggies. I gobbled down the veggies today and No sugar cravings at all. and I was 400 calories lower than my goal.

i love quinao. Definitely need to rinse really well before cooking. I cook mine in chicken stock and I season with whatever I want for that meal. You can make a lot and season a helping at a time. Lots of different flovor profiles in one batch of cooking.

night sounds outside my window. Bugs, a little traffic a half mile away, and a TV across the house. Some times you just need to be still.

You are looking at a bunch of things. Perimenopause can definitely disrupt your sleep. If you aren't getting enough to start with that's another issue. Please start getting more sleep. I am personally a lot like a cranky two year old at bedtime. I have chores that aren't done sometimes, I have one more chapter to read or…

WOW! You've done an incredible job of improving your health! I love the statement about eating more of what God created and less of what man creates. You are truly and inspiration! May the rest of your journey be as successful as the first part.

I woke up remembering that I had dreamed and that it was very chaotic. No real details. I was actually a little shakey when I woke.

Add me if you want. I am starting over too and have more to lose than keep as well.

I think that I would tell the girl that I could help her but they need to include mom and dad in the process because they are her parents and this is about her health. I agree that the pediatrician needs to know that she is concerned about her weight. Parents need to buy into all you are teaching though. A calories is a…

I make a salad that is on the back of a can of Kuner's of Colorado Southwestern Black Beans.

You can add a dash of hot sauce and /or a…

Hi! I will turn 60 in August. I joined 5.5 years ago and lost 70 pounds in 15 months. I wasn't working so I could go to the gym when the mood struck. I logged every bite. I quit drinking soda and haven't had any since. (I had a five cans of Diet Coke a day habit.) When I went back to work the stress and the commute time…

Pinterest has a ton of the recipes. My niece has had great results using her spiralizer for low carb meals. I like the idea of having SOME pasta noodles and some veggie noodles. I am planning to get a spiralizer tomorrow and get started on this.

I am 250. I walk and use a few machines. I keep a kettle bell by the sofa and use it while I watch tv. I mow our lawn which gets my heart rate up for an hour. My daughter who weighs about 300 dances to fast music. I have also seen her use the elliptical and a treadmill for an hour. Don't let the number on the scale stop…

White crackers are mostly processed ingredients and the nutritionist is trying to reduce your carb intake. Whole wheat crackers may be a better option. I only eat oatmeal for the most part. Other carbs come from fruits and vegetables. Try different vegetables and try them in different ways. I find that I love roasting…
