Jipper500's Journal, 02 March 2018

I'm so happy I could cry. The commitment is so worth it. I never thought I'd see the 170's again in my whole life. 381 to 179 in 15 months. No surgery, no pills. And honestly, no exercise... but I'm busy all the time and walk the dogs and so forth. Some advice for all of you: The brain trust here is very good and I encourage anyone to ask for help/advice from others. The best thing I learned was from my pal From371to184 who said if I'm stuck, change something. I went from modest carb (100g) low fat to higher fat lower carb. That worked for a while. Til it didn't. Then lately I've gone back to more carbs and less fat. That's working. Everybody's different. I get hungry at night, but found if I eat a really low cal breakfast, I get a bigger lunch and dinner and not hungry at night. Of course, as much lean protein as you can shove in within your calorie limits. And hey, go ahead and weigh at least every other day so no bad surprises. So, if you get stuck, ask someone. Ask in your journaling and hopefully it'll be posted on the front page.
