Smile update (so happy to share it with you!)

Dear all,

Just a quick note to let all you kind people who offered me advice for my 3rd week into this WOE that things are going fine (touch wood!)

I've started eating 1.5 cups of letuce with bacon and mayonaise every day, i doubled my water intake, cut out soda drinks containing aspartame and i try to keep my calories intake at about 2000 cals. I would think i loose inches rather than lbs but as long as it shows i don't mind!

I may not post much, since i am pretty new and not as knowledgable as some of the "veterans" around here but believe i read everything you read religiously!

Good luck to all of you in your efforts!

Take care

Talking Keep up the great work!

You are doing great and we are all proud of you! Just as some inspiration I was 270lbs 2 years ago and I got down to 230 in a VERY short period of time, like 4 weeks. I am trying to get to 210 (as I am about 6'1") YOU CAN DO IT ! and it is so totally worth it.
