Hmmm... things are going so-so with my WL. Major fluctuations. I'm going up and down so much. The hardest part I am having (these last several days) is that my net carbs are likely exceeding my personal limit for losing. It must be the fruit. The tough part about OWL is the "testing time" it takes. Add this new food -- does it work for me? Add a couple more carbs -- does it work for? The assessing, testing and analyzing everything can be difficult...especially if I am not consisent with the same foods being introduced over a period of days to see how they affect me. I'm not really frustrated - yet; b/c I have learned to be patient with myself and I understand its a process and this is all part of it. I will be eating healthfully for a lifetime, so I've got time to get this right.
Something confuses me. I am a tiny bit concerned. It appears my TOM is coming too early. Why is this happening? Stress? Are my hormones getting out of whack? Years ago (and for a long duration of time) I had the worst trouble with TOM. I would experience horrific heavy bleeding for many weeks - or even spotting for up to four months. Then I would not have any period for six months or more. My system was way out of whack, much due to PCOS and the hormonal imbalances it causes. Ever since I began using a healthy natural progesterone cream, I've been totally regular -- it even got to the point that I no longer needed the hormonal correcting cream, and I begin my TOM naturally and systematically each month. The timing seems off right now. I can't imagine why. I've been "normal" for a couple of years now, and my hormones are so much better and balanced, too, as a result of taking my health back and losing so much weight.
