Checking Back In
I, VLC4Me, am checking in as promised. I signed the pledge almost 13 months ago, with what I thought was 100 pounds to lose (after losing 30, gaining ten, and keeping it off, somewhat earlier). My height had just been measured at 4'9", so my goal weight was about 95 pounds -- and I weighed 195!
Eventually, I got suspicious of the height measure, and the weight goal. I've been remeasured at just under 5 feet, so a reasonable goal is 115 to 120 pounds.
I made it to 156 pounds, then gained a couple of pounds, and then winter set in, with less exercise. I still exercised portion control, and enjoyed a somewhat larger range of
low carb foods. Then my stomach started acting up, and I have been advised in various ways on diet, to follow a low-residue diet, which generally lists high-carb foods like mashed potatoes.
I felt so bad on that diet that I went back to my IBS diet, slightly modified. About every two days I lose it, and overeat. Right now the first goal is get back a sense of portion control, then get back to low-carb dieting.
Since I'm not quite at the two-bodies-in-one stage I was BD (Before Diet), I will occasionally check in to the Triple Digit Club, to cheer on others.
Find a way and do it!
