I almost hate to say this as I don't want to jinx myself, but I'm under 220lbs this morning, haven't been that weight since 1990 or so. Tomorrow is official weigh-in for the week. I'm loving the 16:8 fast at this point, and eating most of my calories around dinner time limits calorie intake to 500 to 600 calories for a 21 hour period. By doing that I hope to achieve the same health benefits of an alternate day diet. 16:8 is much easier for me to do than alternate day.
Is it possible to get addicted to portabella mushrooms?? :) I've been making portabellas stuffed with turkey, kale, onion, garlic, and feta or gorgonzola cheese several nights a week, it's absolutely delicious and very filling. There's stuffing left over so tonight's menu is the stuffing mix over spaghetti squash, with mashed sweet potato since that's leftover too. Hope everyone has a great day.

I agree with Brent ... no jinx ... you earned that weight loss. Awesome! Awesome! And hey, first step in addiction is admitting so ... yes, you are addicted to portabellas ... and i see why ... all those delicious creations you stuff them with...yum! Excellent work, man. Good job!

Thanks everyone for your support. I believe I think about food as much now as I ever did, at least it's in healthier ways. I always look forward to something good to fix for the evening meal and like trying new things.

Thanks Bill. You've been tremendous help to me from the start, much appreciated. I appreciate the input from everyone, even if I haven't followed all the recommendations made as I have to do what works for me and what I'm able to continue to do long term. But in every suggestion and tip is the possibility to learn something new and apply it if appropriate.

Whoa! I thought Tristan was a friend of yours. Congrats on your loss, what I'd give right now to say I was the weight I was in 90!

Please do so Jim. You're not the only person who has received comments like this from Mr. Waits. I am thinking he is just a troll. The account was created today.
