I'm doing excellent! Followed my own "helpful tips" that have been enormously helpful. I have been on my one and only favorite food plan again for 2 weeks, no binges, no skipping meals (no eating salted nuts or pepperoni).

Out of my 3 tips THE MOST helpful has been preparing my meals ahead of time. This is HUGE, people, believe me! Every morning I make all my meals in containers and afterwards I just warm them up. Salad is separate, precut of course, I just add 1 cup. Has saved my soul so many times - meaning, before I reach for that bag of potato chips/nuts (becz I'm starving), I nuke my food, eat it and I'm done. Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea, I'm full and happy.

I've lost total of 156 lbs and I still cannot believe I did it and how easy it actually was. Finding this food plan has been the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. No reason to quit, no reason to ever go off, I love the food and thus, no fear of ever gaining anything back.

And again I am hearing every single day that I should be a model.
