Keep up the good work.
You will probably lose it all at once. Probably lots of water weight since ham is salty. Hang in there :-)

I love eggplant parmasena ( is that spelled correct) I had an eggplant that had to be used before it spoiled. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO............... I sliced it, grilled it, and put it in a baking dish with tomato sauce and now I can smell it cooking in the oven. I will top it with mozzrella cheese and let it melt and get all gooey yummoooooooooooo. The eggplant was large,I used 1/2 of it and I will have leftovers for lunch the next few days. Then I grilled the other 1/2 along with green bell peppers and onions. I then cut that into bite size pieces tossed them in a pot with a small amount of tomato sauce. I will have that with whole wheat pasta for dinner tomorrow.

I started my basil and parsely plants and can't wait to have fresh herbs. Pasta with fresh herbs, diced tomato, a drizzle of olive oil and topped with grated romano cheese is to die for.

I keep looking at those, but I just didn't want to take a chance on grainy apples with brown spots. lol Maybe now I will give them a try. Thanks for sharing your tip. :-)

Congrats on the 50 lost-what a goal to have reached!
Hope your daughter will be okay, not a fun test I bet.

Gained again this week, must get back on the wagon! You are all doing such a good job, shames me. I've had a terrible sweet tooth for this whole month. I just need to stop eating all the goodies and walk. Keep up the good work for you that are losing. And the rest of us....we will get there too.

Thanks everyone. I started by just getting through one day at a time. I know it sounds dumb but it really does work. When you crawl in bed at night you can think I DID IT! One day, then another all of a sudden you have a week. I also don't think about it as a diet I think about it has a life change. I have to live this way to be healthy. I use to be a very big diet soda drinker. I mean 5-6 cans a day. I haven't had one soda in 7 months. I do have to say that I was forced to start eating healthy because I had my gallbladder out and was one of those "lucky" people with side affects after surgery.
