Hello - I also want to say congrats on getting a jump on this now!!!! You came here with some motivation (or you probably would not have come here) and you followed that motivation by making the appointment and now look at you so far!!!!!!

I'm going to caution you a bit though, and I'm sure possibly the nutritionist did too. You were drinking quite a bit of soda and are going to almost none. You are probably going to get some caffeine headaches - please, please, please, don't let this stop you!!!! You have started on a great trek and I'm very proud of you for that. You want to keep it going!!!!

Another good source, and you have started doing this, is join us over on the journals page. That is where you can keep writing down your food and keep us updated, and yourself, on your progress and have someplace to go to write. The BEST thing you can do for yourself in this is write everything down. I have lost 47 pounds since July and my key to really going was writing everything down. Then I could see what I was eating and why I was gaining any weight on a given week, or day.

GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Welcome!
Chris
