I bet my shameful weight-number is worse than yours. Though in another three pounds the second digit will change and then it'll be better.

Of course, I'm almost proud that my starting weight was 225, because it's nowhere near that bad any more. (I was looking at an old pair of jeans the other day and wondering how I could have lived like that.)

I'm about to have a second digit change, too. One more pound...

But I'll be more excited when the next second digit change comes up. I'm still quite a way from goal.

But yeah...you've come an INCREDIBLE way. Considering how impatient I'm gettting at times...I'm just in awe of people who had much more than I have to lose and achieve it. You're in the homestretch now! That's gotta feel great.

Low carb recipe for ya!

Gotta hankering for mexican food?

Find some canned black soybeans. I got mine at the healthfood store...not all that expensive even.

Get yourself some low carb tortillas...

Take out 1/2 cup of the beans and warm them up in the microwave.

Take the tortilla, butter one side and put it in a skillet butter side down, put an ounce of shredded chedder cheese in it and fold it over. Fry it till slightly brown.

Place the cheesy torilla on top of the beans and add a scoop of sour cream and a tablespoon of picante. Mmmmm!

Net carbs..

Tortilla=4g
Black soybeans =1g
Cheese= .5g
Sour Cream=1g
Picante sauce 1g

Can add grilled chicken or steak slices to it, I bet and it would taste great...but I just ate it this way and it was fantastic.
