Well, I've plummeted in my efforts and successes. I'm an even 200 lbs., give or take with my clothes on. I'm so disappointed in myself, I've told myself a long time ago that that number would be my rockbottom and when I get there, I have to put my every fiber into getting rid of all that weight. It's just not working for me.
It's amazing how life gets in the way so much, your efforts are sabotaged, and your body doesn't seem to be working with you. It's quite disheartening. I wish I had you guys support on here like I used to. But on a brighter note...tomorrow I start my Low Carb lifestyle again. I've tried Atkins, Sugarbusters, and others and I lost weight on Curves and Atkins, but they are really restrictive, and I just don't believe they work for my lifestyle, so I'm doing one that I found in a cookbook. A low carb cookbook with a three stage plan in the beginning of it, it's pretty liveable. I'm also reading a few more books, like the Carbohydrate Addicts diet, just to learn a little more about what's going on with me and the rest of the low carb community.
Now I realize that most of you guys are following a low fat diet, which is pretty much the opposite of low carb dieting but that does not mean we're incompatible, its just another method, and some of the principles are similar, like cutting back on the processed foods, eating more fruits and veggies, and cutting sugar. So we can share some recipes. And we should all be adding fiber into our lives, it's some good stuff! Anyway, I surely hope to hear from all you wonderful ladies sometime before this summer is out. I will talk to you soon.
Kia.
