Good for you,it will work. Did you get your ketostix? As for me,way too much eating out and pizza for dinner tonight.  

No, didn't make it to a pharmacy...when do you test? first thing in the morning or later? I am so stinkin' good...pizza never touches my lips. Why am I not skinny? 

You should test through out the day at first to see when you are the darkest color and then use that as your time. I usually check in morning and evening. If you find yourself getting discouraged just have an all protein day (meat,cheese, and eggs only) I also believe you should have a day "off" by eating whatever you want, just keep calories low that day. PS.... I could have been one of those women, because I think you look skinny now. 

I have heard from many people that I don't need to lose anymore weight...but I'm 193, that cannot be skinny unless I was 7 feet tall. I'm 5-8, size 12-14, so I know I need to lose more. But I can tell you, when i was a size 24, 14 sounded pretty damn good. I guess i am happy now, but not satisfied. I want to be a size 8-10. I don't think that is unreasonable, and something I should be able to accomplish if I'd ever come off this plateau.  

Your good now and I know you will be better, just keep doing it! Go back to listing your foods and I will try and help you with what I know works, (not that I am practiceing what I preach right now} Trust me that the ketostix are a great mental motivator 

We are slowing down losing but I'm with you - 196 is too much for me - 148 is my goal - size 8. Not too worried about looking too skinny - I will know what is right for me. So glad you are with your daughter and having 2 dates this weekend. Yea!
