Pausing to reflect that in March of 2012 I was pushing 280 lbs. When I joined FS at the end of June of this year, I weighed 255 lbs. Today's weigh-in makes me happy. That's a drop of 50 lbs so far, although the first 25 was not an intentional choice. More importantly, I've made a huge change in lifestyle. Daily walks, eliminated most processed food and sugary drinks. I've started cooking protein and vegetable meals and baking healthy snacks. I am working to conquer my mindless eating so I can enjoy the occasional treat without going overboard.
I have a long way to go on this journey, at least another 80 lbs to get to my goal weight, but I really have to enjoy the successes along the way. My clothes are getting looser. I've dropped from size 22 to size 18 jeans. I can wear my new winter coat that was getting too snug to wear last year. I have more stamina when I bike, swim and walk.
I am grateful for this community for being so supportive and inspirational in my journey.

Dropped my RDI another 100 points...clearly my metabolism is slowing at a faster rate than my weight is coming off. :-( Frustrating.

steady weight
16 October 2014
Went to the Doctor today. Got my blood test results. My cholesterol is borderline high but my fasting blood sugar and A1C is still acceptable. What I didn't expect was a high Urate rating. Apparently this is something that appears with gout, but not always. I don't eat much protein and I don't drink wine, but my internet research indicates that sometimes it is just high without any symptoms. I have been thinking lately that I need to drink more water, and that may help.
On the very interesting side, there is some indication that there might be some atypical PCOS going on, and that might be the reason behind some of my symptoms, irregular periods, depression, inability to lose weight even with diet and exercise and the ever-popular appearance of facial hair ! And which of those symptoms do you think bothers me the most? LOL. Anyway, off to the Gynecologist who can hopefully sort this out. I understand the treatment may be birth control pills. Who ever heard of birth control pills to lose weight? Color me confused.

Well, I am extra-pleased that I was able to enjoy Thanksgiving and still lose!! Even with 4 desserts one day and two the next, lol. I guess it just goes to show that real food doesn't pack on the pounds like processed foods, I guess. Mmmm, pumpkin pie ;-)
