Beverly, Kudos for sticking to your plan in the face of pep pizza. That's not easy to do!

This week will be good. I swear! It should help that two of my friends are unavailable this month (one of them is moved away until Sept *cries*), so no reason to eat out!

I bought 4 pounds of strawberries on the weekend, I am going to be eating strawberries until I turn red this week!

Lots of fruit and veggies for today, wow - impressed with myself!

Hello--I'm new here and just started back dieting.
Last May I was 5 8 and 130 lbs (after losing 70lbs),
but now I am 181. I hold weight well, but do not
feel very good over 165. I'm starting my diet off
with a bang on HCG, which is really a diet best suited
for "professional weight watchers." I've been off the diet/fitness
wagon for awhile now, so I am not sure if I can do it.
My goal for this day is to eat Green Tea, Tilapia, and
Melba Toast rounds--maybe I can get some asparagus.
Yesterday I lost 1 lb on this.
I lost 3 lbs (water weight probably) the week before.
If I could weigh 165 by month's end, it would be worth it.

Tracy Hi and Welcome!

Thanks Diana! I love seeing what everyone is eating too! It gives me ideas. And, it looks so good! Yum. I am so hungry.
