Finally, a drop in weight, typical for me. I will get on the scale and be ticked off because of no result in weeks, and then I get on a day or two later and it goes down. So I am less than a pound short of the 30 lb mark. I have plenty left, but it is going in the right direction, and for that, I am grateful. I didn't feel like walking today because it is warm and the terrain here is hilly and gravelly, but I plodded through with my husband for a 40 minute walk. That and ten minutes of easy gardening, light yard work, was my activity for the day. I am happy that I do not find it difficult making my husband something I dont eat. I also want to add that I am so happy NutriSystem has a My Way weekends off version. Also, they have frozen food. That frozen food is a godsend since most of it is pretty tasty. Since I pick my own food, I stick to favorites so I don't feel deprived. If I eat with my husband, which is easy to do depending on the meal, I just delay when my new food comes so I don't have too much leftover. I might have stuck with Nutrisystem if I had my choice of food the last time. I just hated their choices and gave the food away and switched diets. But this has always been the most successful for me. The hardest thing is trying not to eat out. I have only eaten out once since coming to my vacation home- that was for my husband's birthday. I am allowed to eat out, but i know there are ingredients I don;t know about and I will do better if I don't eat out much. However, a steamed lobster is a must this week.

lobster is protein and pretty good for you - some sodium though, and fat only if you dip in butter

I have over the years successfully eaten lobster since I skip the butter and have it steamed. It is a yummy treat and low in calories. It is worth a trip to a restaurant to have it in season. You are right, however, about the sodium. All the seafood, which I love, is high in sodium and I usually see a weight gain after, but I know the reason. Thanks for responding.

Sodium is not the enemy, the weight gain from sodium is not real weight gain to begin with. If it bothers you that much (Which doesnt seem to be the case) just drink alot of fluids.
You seem to be doing well, keep the good work up! and remember, if something aint broken, don't try to fix it.

Thanks. I will do so to flush it out. I am sensitive to it. I don't have high blood pressure, but when I eat lobster my eyes get puffy and I retain a lot of fluid. I eat it anyway, as long as I don't have to weigh myself the next day or two.
