  • 7 weeks, 40 lb. Still working on it.




    U P D A T E :

    I'm now down about 55 lb. and thought I would post a couple of updated photos.

    It's kind of strange to me how the weight falls off. I feel like I've lost a lot of weight in my upper torso (i.e. I can feel my clavicle, sternum, ribs, etc. with ease), but the photos appear as though the bottom portion of my stomach has gotten bigger.

    From left to right: 350 lb. / 303 lb. / 287 lb.

                    Thank you all for your kind comments.

                    While I don't have a specific menu to post, I can tell you how a typical day looks for me:

                    For breakfast, I usually have a Diet Mt. Dew. I'm usually not at all hungry in the mornings, but if I am I'll eat a small handful of roasted almonds. Usually if I eat lunch I will eat something like a Back Yard Burger chicken sandwich, sans the bun of course. A lot of times I'm not hungry and/or too busy, so I'll just have more almonds. For dinner, I have a healthy portion of a protein and vegetables. For example, pan fried chicken (no breading) in olive oil, with a lemon basil butter sauce and a nice salad or some other vegetable. I love roasted squash with parmesan cheese, brussels sprouts with bacon, green beans with bacon, etc.

                    Hope this helps. Thanks again.

                            Haha...thanks ladies. Hopefully this is just a fraction of the weight loss. That's my goal any way.
