Bonnie asked how I lost the weight. I have been going to a place called "Metabolic Research Center" since June 1. The people there are AMAZING and know me by name...they truly care!
Basically here is my day of food:
Breakfast:
2 medium eggs OR 2 oz of hard cheese
1 slice lo-cal bread
a protein drink
Lunch:
4 oz protein
8 oz raw veggies OR 4 oz cooked
fruit
protein drink
Dinner:
4 oz protein
8 oz raw veggies OR 4 oz cooked
1 slice lo-cal bread
protein drink
I can add up to 2 more protein drinks/day. The drinks contain 11-12 grams of protein. Amazingly enough I am not hungry on this UNLESS I increase my exercise. Then I add a string cheese stick as a snack if need be.
IT WORKS...and I feel TERRIFIC!!!

Laurie,
Good for you on the weight loss. I know just how hard it is having lost 94 lbs. myself. Of course the really hard work is going to be keeping it off. Keep up the GREAT work! Your menu sounds very similar to mine except that I'm only doing one protein drink per day.

How do you figure out the "oz"?
Are "Slim Fast" protein drinks?
I am upping my H2O intake and "trying" to watch what I eat.... (I have not started the SF but considering it....)
I have a small kitchen scale that I bought at Target to weigh my food. As for the protein drinks...I get mine from Metabolic Research Center.
I don't think SlimFast is a protein drink...that is a meal replacement drink. I did a google search, typing in protein drinks and several links came up.
Good job upping your water intake! AWESOME!!!
Hugs
Laurie
