Today I had my official weigh in at the Dr. Office. I was told that I have lost 16% of my excess body weight and I am down 53LBS since surgery. I also found out that Burgers at a fast food restaurants do not have that much protein as I need . So I was advised to have chili from Wendy's instead. That is not a bad suggestion since I like chili. Also found a great protein bar called "OH Yeah" that tastes good, but it is hard to find in Boone.
Some of the other things I have to work on is getting my protein levels up I am still not getting the needed protein. The Dr. said I should be getting more than 60Grams a day or more, I am at 45ish. So the protein bars will help with the weight loss. Something else I learned or at least heard and sunk in today is that the more protein you can get the more weight you will lose.
Last thing is my exercise, I need to get better about walking and going to the gym. Although I do walk a lot at work, more walking and lifting of the weights is required. Thanks for all the support you have been giving me. I appreciate the encouragement and covet your prayers for Stacey and I. Thanks again for all you do for me my peeps.
