I know that the body loses what it does on its own time and numbers are not always indicative of progress. I'm about 4-6 pounds away from "normal" BMI.
I was wondering if any of you who have reached goal have tips for me?

I reached my goal using SBD 9 years ago. I also averaged 1.5 lbs. per week loss over a 20 month period.
I actually logged my food daily while I was losing. You can see it if you like. Go the first page of my current journal and find the link to my first journal and read the last pages. I did not have to cut out dairy but good for you for doing that. I found that because I am insulin sensitive and fairly healthy, I added 1-2 fruits a day and 1-2 starches a day.
I also walk a lot every day for my work. At least 10,000 steps a day.
Good luck! Enjoy the journey!  |
