I'm really tired today, only got like 6hrs of sleep, but I did have a great 3 day weekend, did some cleaning and walking, and most important had fun with my kids.
My friend at work complimented me when she saw me, she said, "It looks like you are really losing weight!", and "Keep the good work!". It felt so good to hear that! me and her are diet buddies and support each other & keep each other on track. which i'm grateful for. my kids help me out, too, when i'm at home.
So, tonight for dinner, I'm thinking Shrimp Cocktails and also making a shrimp and fish soup. I also have a recipe that I want to make for Red Curry Chicken.

Thanks Ladies!!!
Yet there's so much more to lose. I'll be happy to lose another 55lbs, to be in higher end of my healthy weight range, and i'm really planning to accomplish this by next year. Overall the healthy eating is something I plan on keeping as a life change.
I do have secret weaknesses like everyone else, mine is pizza.
I LOVE PIZZA! Last night I treated myself to pizza, just cheese/pepperoni, and a few licks from my son's ice cream cone cause it was melting quickly. =)
I guess the only bad thing about that was it was pretty late, already after 8pm, but I will be back on track today, and try to stay away from the pizza for a while.

Has anyone seen/heard of/used Sensa?
Natural Weight Loss System - Try Sensa.com
I ordered some to try it out, seems interesting, and you can try it for free for 30 days, so why not. It's like a salt shaker and you shake tastants on to everything you eat, whether sweet or salty and it's supposed to make you feel full quicker..?...
I should be getting it soon...so I will definitely post an update

well, i believe more...
like when i go to whole foods, apples can cost $1.99/lb vs going to walmart and it may cost there $1.08/lb. The organic products tend to cost more.
i try to use a local hispanic supermarkets for most of my produce needs, and Aldi's has great prices time to time on produce, fruits, and i have been buying frozen boneless skinless chicken breast and use that to grill on the george foreman.
i think the most expensive products are definitely the meat/seafood/chicken that are organic, hormone-free, i don't know too much about that, so i usually go to walmart and buy frozen shrimp in a bag, costs like $5, and i'm gonna try some extra lean turkey cutlets and see how they taste.

if anyone has an ideas to share please let me know.

Some info I found on the internet that I found helpful

Link to article:
Binge-proof your diet: 6 Foods that keep you full and satisfied on Shine

and the foods are:
Eggs
Almonds
Avocados
Apples
Oatmeal
Peanut Butter ( I like this idea! Toss a half-cup of whole grain noodles with 3 oz cooked shrimp, minced scallions, and ¼ cup sliced red bell pepper. Dress with a mixture of 2 tbsp peanut butter, 2 tbsp warm water and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes. )

Ok, so I haven't been able to get to the doctor's office yet this week, probably can't till tommorrow.
But last night, I worked out for 40mins playing DDR. whew! it sure made me sweat! It has a workout mode and you can set the time limit and when you've reached your goal it lets you know. It was fun even though I'm not coordinated enough to actually get a good grade. haha!

^^^ YOUR WELCOME (^.^)

yeah, and this morning went to the doctor's office, and i'm slightly frustrated, because my weight loss has come to a stand still or more of a teeter totter really, goes up a little then down a little, but i'm still taking the Hcg for weight loss, & today decided to get a Lipo B injection, and hope that helps with my metabolism. So far I've been able to lose the weight on diet changes & some exercise, but if I can motivate myself to do more everyday, I know I can do it.
I think I can, I think I can. heehee

Sounds like you are doing really great! Keep up the good work. Have you tried a website like SparkPeople to trace your exercise & foods you eat? I find it very helpful. Thx for keeping us updated on your progress, it is very inspiring.

went to the doctor's on friday, and can you believe she mentioned lipo...!
but after looking at my poor flabby stomach, it may be inevitable.
got some bloodwork done, to make sure that my sugar levels are under control. so i'll update on those results when i get them.
i'm doing so well, i'm really proud of myself eating wise, i'm sticking to healthy foods, and keeping my snacks on hand, so i'm not tempted to give into fast foods....and almost daily on the internet researching new foods/recipes to keep my taste buds interested

see pic below to get an idea of what i'm talking about (not really me, just a pic from internet to give you an idea)

and hopefully seeing the title everytime i make an update it will remind me of the long journey i have ahead & it will keep me more accountable/focused on keeping my goal.
