That last one sounds SO yummy!!!! I cant wait!

As for my intake, I'll use today and yesterdays numbers....today I was 1294 calories, 75 on Fat as well as 75 on carbs (yikes!), and 76 on protein.

Yesterday seemed better...1139 cals, 67 on fat, 28 on carbs, and 108 on protein! I know I did better yesterday than today, but wow! That is a HUGE difference!

Ladies, I know SB isn't all about just counting calories, but I am curious anyway! LOL! What is your average calorie intake? Average Fat? Average protein? I would love to compare! Thanks!

Jenna,

I know that we really don't know each other yet, so I hope it is appropriate for me to reply! I just wanted to tell you that I am so sorry you are feeling so down today! One thing I have learned in my weight loss journey is to try really hard not to compare myself to other women. I know that it hard to do!! I know lots of people that think I look "fine at the weight I am", but **I** am the one who needs to feel comfortable. For my height, I am considered over weight.

Try not to let the way someone else looks make you feel like you are worth any less, my dear! Your BF obviously loves you for who you are....now if you can just get YOU to like you, at the weight you are right now, you'll be all set! We are allowed to not like our weight, but we need to love ourselves anyway. We don't have to wait to get to that "perfect" weight to deem our selves worthy of self love!

Virtual hugs to you!

Kelly

Thanks for the warm welcome!! I wanted to tell you all a little about myself. As I already said, my name is Kelly. I am a SAHM to one beautiful little 8 year old girl! I'm about to celebrate my 15th wedding anniversary next week! (the 19th).

I had gastric bypass surgery in January of 2003. I went from around 315 pounds down to a lowest weight of 136. I was, as of Monday, 152.8 pounds. I want to turn it around now before a smallish re-gain turns into a large one! Most people think I cant eat much because of my surgery! That is SO not true! The amount restriction doesn't last long, and isn't meant to. After all, I couldn't live on a few tablespoons of food per meal forever. I can't eat as much as pre-surgery, but I can eat a pretty normal amount of food now.

I did step on the scale this morning, (I know, probably a no-no, right?), and just since Monday, I am down from 152.8 to 149.2!! I was SO excited to see that, and it sure helped to motivate me to keep going!

Thanks for having me!

Good morning, all! I am fairly new here, and was wondering if you have room for one more in  your group? I am eating the South Beach way, and thought I'd come here for some motivation! ;)
