I hope I will reach my goal in maintenance. I am looking forward to phase 3 breakfasts. I am away from home this week so have lots of time at night to go over phase 3 information and come up with a plan as I will be starting phase 3 during the week and will have to plan how to do this at work. I am actually excited to try this greek yogurt everyone was talking about, and to have fruit again. Thanks all for your advise and knowledge I think I am good with this plan and can be proud that I lost 90 lbs and not 100... that is still to come. Have a great night
You have done wondefully! Good luck moving on. I have never been a greek yogurt fan but I'm hoping since a lot of things I never liked are tastey now, that will be too.

You will do great in maintenance. Fruit is THE best. Strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries are my faves.

I normally have that with greek yogurt, then some protein bread, butter, and vegemite (yes, the little Australian kid in me still loves her Vegemite). Feel free to delete that from the breakfasts if you consider it icky, which I'm sure most Americans do.
I am going to have to go check this fatsecret place out! Sounds like just what I need.

Forgive me if you have already talked about this or if it is none of my business, but I see you talking about your coach and the head guy. Have you gone in to see your primary care provider lately? Your body has gone through such a transition these last 10 months. You should probably get some bloodwork done including a thyroid screen. Not just a TSH but ask for the T3 & T4 too. We all know how a severe diet can mess with our female hormones, and insulin is a hormone so it stands to reason that it may have affected your thyroid or adrenal hormones also. Anyway, even if you checked it earlier in your program, checking it again won't hurt. Hope I haven't overstepped.

no you are not overstepping, and it is good idea, unfortunately I do not have a doctor but I will try to see if I can get in with one.
