I am very proud to say that I have finally gotten out of the 240s. It has been half a year since I got under 250 and I have been bobbing around the 240s range ever since. Right now I am 239 lbs.! I am so so happy. FINALLY.
The calorie counting IS helping in addition to the 18hr intermittant fasting, only drinking water, and limited food options. To be honest, I didn't think I would be able to handle all of this, but I AM able to. It mostly took a leap of faith to try the calorie counting, but since Cate and other people suggested it, and I trust all of you, I decided to open my mind and try it. It is something that is really bringing results for me, and I feel like it is a sustainable weight loss method for me. Thank you, guys.
Next mini-goal 220s! Omg, I can't believe I just said that. It has been years since I wad in the 220s. Can't wait!
