Okay, since Memorial Day is the end of this challenge, and by coincidence it's my birthday, I will make a goal of losing 5 lbs. by then. I would love to get back down to 130 as a birthday present!
4/19/04 135 lb.

Shelley: You go girl!!! It will be a wonderful birthday treat to yourself to lose those 5lbs and I have no doubt that you can and WILL do it!!!

My goal will be to lose 6 lbs. That is only 1 lb a week so it is definately doable!!! Hoping for more, but counting on 6!!! Lets go!!!

I will be back later to post my meals

Three ounces of meat is the size of a deck of cards.
Three ounces of grilled fish is the size of your checkbook.

One teaspoon of peanut butter equals the tip of your thumb.
A cup of fruit is the size of a baseball.

To make sure you don't overeat, start with one serving at meals, eat slowly, and go back for seconds only if you are still hungry. Remember, it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to signal your brain that it's full.
