Main Goal

To loose the balance of the weight that I set out to do in July 2008. I've lost 15 of my 30 lb. goal. The goal is to loose the remaining 15 lbs before 02/01/08. I do not want to be too aggressive at this. I'm trying to make total changes in my eating habits for life. I do not want to repeat this whole process...again!

I lost my mom, a brother and a sister in a 3 year period to conjestive heart failure that initiated from type 2 diabetes. So far I have not developed type 2 diabetes yet, and I want to keep it that way!

Previous Diets

Weight watches and just trying to do it on my own. About a year and 1/2 ago, I lost 10 lbs. I had surgery and put it all back on. I've been on Nutri System since 07/15/08. This is working. So far I've lost 15 lbs. I faithfully followed the plan, just eating the NS foods for each meal (plus adding dairy, vegetables) for the first 6 weeks and lost 10 lbs. NS is rally all about portion control, exercise and drinking a lot of water. You are really not deprived of anything. However I'm getting bored with the NS foods and it is EXPENSIVE. Therefore I'm starting to incorporate other foods for my evening meal, starting off the meal with a big salad and a water. I have enough of the NS food to last me until January to continue eating that for breakfast and lunch during, most days. Having all of those lunches on hand to take to work is really nice.

Favorite Music

Classic rock. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, I appreciate all of the "rock" music. Beatles in the 60s, through most of the current bands. I saw Saliva, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Cheap Trick, Heart, and Journey this past summer. I like some country music, but not very much of it.
