THANKS! I think so too. I weigh ED first thing in the morning the sec I get out of bed. My log in weight has been noted either once a week or whenever I see another drop and want to mention it~

I AM HOPING AND KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED. This is when it gets tougher since I have GOT to find some more food I love to eat so I look forward to the meals so I will stick to it and make it a lifestyle. I have always been cardio. It is the food that gets me. And I confess this type of eating is a challenge.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR OPTIMISM!

anytime! you need to venture out and figure out what type/kinds of foods you like. change the chicken for turkey, and go check out the recipe section. there are some lean meals in there with macros and ways to prepare it. i understand the frustration you are having with the food. same ole same ole does get boring, so try to figure out which foods will better help keep you on this path you are on. trust me, i have some of the same problems, but i like all food!

Looking forward to that BigRon! Thanks a lot~ Appreciate it.

**RedShifted** · 05-08-2011, 09:12 PM

If thats your new diet I'd be curious to see how sloppy your old diet was.

Was it:

yogurt 6am
strawberries 8am
blueberries 10am
yogurt 12noon
iced tea 2pm
grapes 4pm
wine 6pm
wine and grapes 8pm
black out 10pm

I guess its good to have low expectations and not be in a rush so if it works it works. Just know that it could likely work a lot better.

Good luck reaching your goal.

**SlimmerMe** · 05-09-2011, 09:14 AM

^^^Are you a comic? Not the above at all; complete opposite and so much so I do not even want to contaminate my thread with the foods I was eating before starting this program.

hey slim, do you like steak? try adding some to your weekly diet, maybe 2 days a week to try to change your taste buds up some. get some lean cuts like top sirloin, flank, or even round steak. i know that you do not care for sweet potatoes, but try cutting them into french fry like pieces and bake them until crispy, then season them like you would french fries. or, you could cook down some portobello mushrooms and have that the steak. just throwing some different choices at ya!

**SlimmerMe** · 05-10-2011, 09:11 AM

^^ yes I love steak! And there is a restaurant I go to every so often and I plan to go soon. They have the BEST petite filet which I start salivating over with anticipation. I do love to have that red meat. Thanks for reminding me~
