This week I tried something different and ADDED calories into my plan (a chocolate protein shake between breakfast and lunch for another 220 calories, 6 carbs and 3 grams of fat, I think). I could have just added a small protein based meal, but I wanted to just have the shake for convenience.

Well, this expirement worked, I'm happy to say! I will post to the check-in thread as well that I lost 3.5 pounds this week! I had been curious about adding calories to my plan, especially from protein, since I have been lifting weights pretty regularly and doing a decent amount of cardio. I didn't want to eat too few calories.

Oh Karen!!!!! {{{{{HUGS}}}}}
I can FEEL how happy and excited you are just by reading your post!!!! And seeing how happy you are really makes me happy!!!!

I have been wondering how your 'experiment' was going to go! DH is stuck in a plateau at 180 and his trainer suggested adding a protein bar or shake during the day! You were RIGHT ON!!!!! I can't wait to share your wonderful news with him!!!

You are doing such a wonderful job, Karen!! You don't give up. You look for ways to change things or improve other points. This is truly a new lifestyle for you and it shows!! Enjoy that fab body! You earned it!!

CONGRATS to you and Ross!!! I want to see more pictures!!!

(in honor of making your July 4 goal early!)

Thank you for being an inspiration to us all!!!

Congratulations, Karen! I'm so proud of you! You have worked hard to get where you are! Well done!


(and thanks for reminding me that I've bought a variety of protein bars to try. )
