I am happy to report that I am still progressing and am really finding that slow and steady is where I am at.... 76 pounds down now in about 6 months. I say slow and steady because it was fast and furious at the beginning, but has really slowed down.I know that most of that is because I am settling in and not being as strict. But that is okay too. My goal is long term weight loss.
This is the most I have ever lost. I do have the fear that I will gain it back and I think that is why I am so thrilled to be keeping it off and losing a little bit too :)
I am trying to eat as many "whole foods" like fruits and vegetables (I gave up on the low carb because I wasn't feeling as good). Trial and error has been a big part of this journey. I figure any program works if you stick with it.
