Christmas Greetings
I have been quite busy with Christmas activities in my Family, Church, and Community. I'm just very busy, but not too busy to eat LDL correctly. I read the boards, but too busy to post. I am so thankful that I've been able to eat LDL foods during Christmas parties. I thought that I may gain because I have changed my big protein meal to evening, and I've eaten a whole lot. My clothes seemed to be loser and when I got on the scales this morning, I was at a brand new number. It's unbelievable. It works; the more I eat, the more I lose. I have had no desire for the delicious looking desserts, even with the remembraces of the good taste of all them. I usually have a smoothies or a couple pieces of fruit before leaving home. (a smoothie of frozen black grapes, a banana, and a pear, ice cubes---It is sooo sweet and luscious, and to think I thought they made me fat) Remembrances of how candies tasted can be very tempting; however, I have no real cravings. When I drive by a pizza places, I have remembrances of the good taste,and I also smell the aroma in places that tickles my smelling sense, but I make sure I eat something with the same taste. Pizza soup is great. Thanks, Roger, for sharing this woe. I still have many meals to fix for Christmas, but I have no worry about sticking non ldl foods in my mouth. I like the way I feel, the way my clothes fit, and enjoy all the great foods. I want to wish all on the boards a MERRY CHRISTMAS, and may we all remember the reason for true celebration, Christ, my Savior, was born!!! to all, Joyful Friend

Aren't new numbers wonderful? I received a Christmas present early yesterday -- I got it from my scale! I finally reached my goal weight after 8 months on LDL. All this by eating, eating, eating all the food I want! It wasn't always easy along the way; but, with the encouragement and help from all my friends on the boards I got the best present of all! Thanks to each and every one of you.
MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY LDL NEW YEAR *hug*
Vicki

Oh my gosh! That is wonderful news.
What a great way to go into the Christmas holiday! I am so happy for you. Are you going to post your success story? I know it would mean a lot to the newer members to show it can be done and to some of us that have been around a while and need a little new input.
Have a great Christmas and New year!

Re: Christmas Greetings
Congratulations on meeting your goal! What an inspiration to all of us traveling down the road to success. I would love to hear all about your journey and what are your plans now for continuing to keep off the weight and more then likely from what I have read losing more weight.

Re: Christmas Greetings
Vicki -- you are a rare one. How many people do you think are saying what you said this close to Christmas? Most are saying how they'll have to "diet" after the holidays because of all that weight they gained. What a blessing! Enjoy your gift and share the good news with all who care to know. So many would be blessed knowing how you did it.

Re: Christmas Greetings
Cheers to you, Vicki, congrats on making your goal!
To Pam, I did a search for emoticons and found this site: http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons-objects-004.php. Pick the graphic and then under it highlight the forum code and copy it. Then paste into your message. I always do the preview before I post. It will show up if you did it right. Have fun!
