It has been a while.
Like a long while.
But, in case anyone is actually reading this let me go ahead and fill you in...
I have been maintaining this entire time, more or less. I kept cutting down my calories, and eating low fat-no fat everything. Nothing budged.
Frustrating doesn't begin to cover it. So, I started weight lifting.
Some people love weight lifting and adore it. I am not one of those people. I have to lift weights while watching TV otherwise I will fall asleep in the middle of a rep. But I am doing it, and was steadily increasing my weights until I hit a wall.
Now I was not only not losing weight, but not able to increase the weights I am lifting.
So - I shifted focus to eating more natural, minimally processed foods. This meant going back to full fat versions of things.
Finally I am feeling more energetic, lifting more, running/walking more, etc. And that number on the scale? Still be stubborn but it is finally starting to creep down, and my clothes are fitting better.
Win-win-win.
