    Hi Sarah. It is hard sometimes to stay focused because of things that happen in everyday life. You have to have will power and say no to eating the "bad" foods. Plus you dont want the  te's:) My kids keep me going and focused also. It feels good when my eight year old talks about how flat my tummy is getting. My fourteen year old just says wow. Then there is the negative side that makes me want to stay focused, the customer from hell. I work in a grocery store and I have one man that calls me BIG MAMMA. That is against the law! He needs to eat:) Really, just keep count of your fat grams and calories. Follow the servings. Pray for strength. You will be ok.

     CONGRATS-a great accomplishment- you are an inspiration- I've only just started but I've lost about 9 pounds in 5 weeks. I'm psyched to hear about others' successes as well-keep it up-way to go!!

    Have you tried the Lindora food products? They have a great chocolate shake; it's made with Fructose, rather than sugar, and it's only 90 calories. I usually have that for breakfast. It's a powder that you add water to - I put in less water so it's a pudding consistency, and then I add trail mix (about a 1/4 cup or less - that's 120-140 calories). It tastes great and fills me up. It also ensures that I won't buy junk food from the vending machine at work! For lunch, I usually walk to Whole Foods and get a salad at the salad bar. I keep track of the calories for whatever I put in the salad (I keep a calorie list for various foods). I also found a great salad dressing - "light Greek dressing" - it's only 60 calories in a tablespoon. (I know that sounds like a lot, but the creamy dressings are twice that!) I try to stick to about 1200-1300 calories/day. 

     By the time I've walked back to my office at noon, I've walked for about 30 minutes, so I get some exercise in during the day. I also work out at night, usually, for about 30 minutes doing aerobics. It's working, because my weight is slowly going down.

     I hope this helps.
