well, I am more than half way to my ten pounds. Once I hit that we are going for another 5 pounds. I think I can do that in two months. Gives me five pounds a month. Slowly but surely. Even though I am not eating quite as good as I have wanted to I have cut way way down on sugar. That is my worst thing and chocolate. Wait a min, I think chocolate might have sugar in it. That means I have cut down oogles and oogles. My coke has not completely gone away yet. Keeps begging me to drink and I just cant stand to see things cry. That has cut by 2/3 at least though. I at least have something for breakfast and try and do lunch too. I have cut back on portions. Friday night is "eat what I want to" night though. We are suppose to go to Texas Roadhouse (my favorite place in the world to eat) but I have to go to hospital for some injections so I am hoping we get out on time to go. Takes about three hours or so. Anyway, progress and will be making more soon. I would like to average one or two pounds a week. I think that is a possible goal. So far I have lost six in eight days. Not bad. Always comes off faster at first though. By next Monday I want to be at 175.5
