I really like that you "rise" everyday. It sounds so poised and proper.

I sort of "make my way zombie-like to the kitchen".

I say that so, when I am a having a particularly good day, I can say "rise and shine..."

Hey Brent, when you eat your 12:30 meal, is that in salad form with no dressing, or just individual servings of each eaten raw (except for the chicken!)? I really like all those veggies, but can't seem to eat them unless in a salad, or dipping them in some sort of dip, spread, hummus, etc.

I don't use salad dressing. Ever. Try using lf/ff cc. It is pretty great (: Of course, hummous is pretty amazing too... hmm...

It just the ingredients packed in a tupperware container, no no no dressing no, you could make a salad, but I am kinda weird, I eat all the greens first, then the tomato, then red red pepper, just like i used to eat smarties. Eat the chicken first and the cheese last. I eat all the veggies raw and try to use my own up, or buy organic or at least locally grown, its kinda getting ridiculous the amount of veggies I eat but lets see where it goes, I will post my test results next week, compared to before I started when the results were not that great. Also, when I seen the doctor he checked my BP and he said, its "right on where it should be, I don't know what you have been doing but whatever it is keep doing it" SO there you have it all this stuff works...anyway this post is going on too long...

no... I gave myself that same speech last Friday when I weighed in and hadn't lost any weight.
You know you are on the right track, you are probably the most disciplined eater I have seen here...I really admire your healthy eating habits, and consistant workouts. Your pictures tell a story that a scale doesn't see....so keep doing what you are doing!
