You are doing great.  As long as you view this as a lifestyle instead of a diet you will continue to be successful.  I can't wait to see how much I can lose in seven months,  probably a small person.  This is only my fourth day and I can already feel a difference in my energy level.  I wake up in the morning ready to go.  FTS is definately a God send.  Wishing you continued success as you get closer to your goal.

Thank you Tony   I know that this will be the year that you hit your weight loss goal.  I am hoping that everyone will be successful.  And for those that have alot more weight to lose than I do I pray that they will not be discouraged by that and make this the year that they take better care of themselves.

Thank you all...my resolution this year is to be more active and try to incorporate exercise into my daily routine.

I usually average 10 pounds a month.  But I am content just to be losing and really do enjoy the way I eat.  Drinking alot of water is very important.

This is a snack that I sometimes use for a meal.  I take low sodium zero carb pepperoni and a slice of 0 carb cheese ....place the pepperoni on a plate and break up the slice of cheese into small pieces and nuke in the microwave for 1 min. Real quick in a pinch.

Have you tried pre measuring out your portion sizes in conjunction to your 20 grams of carbs a day and 5 grams of sugar a day.  I t helps me out a lot especially when eating vegetables.  I made guacomole and could sit back and eat the whole bowl with porkrinds. I made myself leave the fried pork rinds in the store because I knew that I would have a problem with my portion sizes.  I measured out a half a cup of guacomole and dipped vienna sausages in it instead.  I ate that for lunch instead.  You can get past it ...kudos for acknowledging what gets in the way of alot of us losing as much as we should.

That is a great deal.  It is embarassing being a tuna fiend. The people at checkout will give you a funny look
