Any June 2009 folks still out there?
I'm just curious how some of you are doing?
My journey continues - I have continued to steadily lose - and haven't bounced back... but haven't reached my goal of 175 yet.
Exercise is a way of life now - the getting protein in continues to be a challenge. I'm a size 14-16 on the bottom and a 10-12 on the top... For the most part I feel MUCH better than I did before, but finding it hard to accept where I have seemed to land as my final "resting" place.
How about you?
Hello,
My ReBirthday is tomorrow and my journey is not over yet either. But I am down 10 dress sizes and I am a few inches away from another size down!!!
I am dancing off the pounds along with a weight bearing workout. I follow the 2:1 protein:carb ratio when I eat and that seems to help keep the protein on track. Bonus, I have a tracker on my cell phone! Keeping a food journal really helps.
I reached goal a little over a year out and have not experienced any regain but that is my biggest fear. I do still weight every day since that helps me stay focused.
If you are steadily losing and not had bounce back I am sure you will get to goal.

I lost about 112 pounds, but I have regained about 35. My husband and I are trying to conceive, but part of me is terrified of what it will do to my body. I'm already very ashamed of myself for my regain and I can only imagine what a pregnancy will do to me, and I'm afraid of not being able to take the time to take care of my body after.
