Congratulations Debby!  You've made fantastic progress.  Are you now in
maintenance mode or are you planning on losing additional weight?

This is a great cause of celebration Deb! How are you maintaining? Is
it easy, or hard?

I am very happy for you, to say the least.

i will have my own anniversary in one month.

It's really easy to maintain, since I don't crave certain things anymore.  I
am really used to eating this way, and my stomach gives me trouble when I
veer off in the wrong direction.  I can't even imagine eating sweets, it
just seems like poison to me.  My behaivioral(sp) habits have improved
drastically.  Congrats on your upcoming anniversary!

That's great to hear. So, what is it that you do not eat? Do you limit
the quantity of how much you eat?

Best of luck to you. I hope that you enjoy our new life.

Well, I don't eat sweets, and I limit red meat.  I do limit my quantities.
I only eat enough to satsfy, not to get full.  When my stomach is too full,
it is REALLY uncomfortable.  Thanks for the good luck wishes!

Yes, "poison in pretty packages" is a phrase I learned from Overeaters Anonymous and
it certainly applies to me. Big congratulations on your anniversary, Debby, and your
good work on maintenance!

Thank you very much, and it looks like you have come a long way too.
Congrats on your weight loss!

Congrats on the Anniversary. 20 lbs below goal weight is quite a bit
lower, did you plan that? Or did it take some time to stabilise?

Thanks!
I didn't plan on going lower than 145 at first, but as I lost more weight, I
lowered my goal, and it was really pretty easy.  I am comfortable at 125,
and I feel like this is where my body wants to stay.  As far as stabilising,
it has stabilised at 125 for at least 4 months now.

hey! you went past your goal! Congrats, of course.

63 lbs in 52 weeks is just about perfect. I think it's the case that
most people can lose at this rate without too much distress or denial,
would you agree?

Excellent!  Many congratulations.  As a newbie to the group, may I ask,
please, what sort of WOE you are using, and how long it took you to
reach your current weight?

It took me about 8 months to reach my current weight.  I just kept my
calories at or below 1200 a day.  I would eat cheerios w/ 1% milk for
breakfast, a chicken breast for lunch, or cottage cheese w/ wheat bread &
butter, and for dinner I would have fish or something I call a breakfast
burrito(made w/ a flour tortilla, sauteed onions, celery, egg & salsa).  I
would also eat apples for snacks, or bananas, just some fruit.  Or sometimes
I would have low-fat wheat crackers w/ tuna mixed w/ low-fat mayo spread on
top, sometimes some green olives thrown in the mix.  I kept track of how
many calories I was taking in at www.nutrawatch.com, I just signed up for
the free account.
Thanks for the congrats, and good luck to you!

Sounds good, and very well done for *keeping* it off for four months -
you're probably set for life now!
