Hi everyone! Not much going on here, just wanted to check in and say hi. Brought some of my chili for lunch today with a bit of shredded veggie cheese on it, and a big salad. This morning my big breakfast was 2 eggs on toast w/slice of veggie cheese, a cup of strawberries, and a small glass of Silk Almond milk (low fat). With one exception nearly every day, maintenance is going pretty well. Still struggling with the choc addiction...
MRI is scheduled for Saturday evening (I know - weird time, isn't it?!) Really hoping I won't need surgery on the knee, but suspect I will. Seems like every day it's getting a bit worse, mostly in the evenings and when I wake up in the morning.
Break time is over, so back to work. Have a good day!
We already have a hot tub up at the cottage, but it's in the garage and now all empty and taken apart. DH won't go out there in the cold though. We might have to build it's own cubby hole out there with some bit of heat. I watch the weather for up there all the time and see the cold temps. DH isn't handling the 50s here in Georgia, but he knows what he's in for though.
You still worry me as my choc addiction was my downfall pre-ip.
Sorry about your knee. You just got over your foot surgery not too long ago.

Hi everyone!
I was surprised this morning when I measured myself.... I don't do it all that frequently, and found that I'm -2 inches less through the waist than I was last time I measured. That helps to explain how the jeans finally fitted. Also when I view my 'sideview' these days, I can tell that the belly fat that was so determined to hang on is FINALLY leaving. Another 5 lbs will do it I think.
Cheers.
Congrats on the inches. That gives me hope for this jiggly pouch on abdomen. maybe when I get further down. My goal is probably just a little high. I will wait until I get there to decide if I'll lower it some more.

Thanks in advance for any advice! I am anxious about this because I started 2 days ago and STARVING all day!
Love your avatar, sooooo cute.
Few things. You will starve until into ketosis. That will probably be another day or two. You can drink shakes three times a day, but understand, your tastes will change (I know you doubt me now). Also, you must read the recipe threads. People have done some marvelous things with the packets. It's what makes the program workable. Read as much on this forum as you can. There is a wealth of knowledge here that make the program great. Do not be afraid or ashamed to ask any question. We're all here to help. It's a big family. Good luck, you're almost through the tough part.
Molly
