Topic: RE: HOLIDAY Weigh in!!!!
I call it food crack. I can't seem to put down really good food and tend to eat too much of it. I try self talk, like your not hungry and it's your foodie addiction but I always seem to have a few more bites than I should. Then my stomach hurts and I'm mad at myself. I worry that the farther out I go the more bites I will take.

I do just fine when I am preparing my own meals at home. I weigh and measure everything still. When I go out? Things just taste so good that I seem to be unable to limit myself as I know I should...I try to make good choices, but still...

I didn't have a one year goal, but I thought for sure I would have lost 100 pounds by now. I'm close though, I'm about 4 pounds away.
I think my expectation was higher because I exercise so much. It's a little disappointing to be working my butt off only to be a 'slow loser'. Thank God I started taking meds for my slow thyroid, I had a stall that was almost two months long because of it!!
In the next two months, I definitely want to hit one-derland. It's about 17 pounds away. I think I'm gonna make it.

I don't think that I have a stricture. I still get very sick sometimes when eating meat. I cannot eat chicken at all. Usually, I can tolerate pork, beef and tuna, but yesterday, I could not. When this happens, I just back off of meat and eat soft proteins for a couple of days - cheese, cottage cheese, eggs and protein shakes.
Thanks for asking...

I think you bring up a very good discussion. I can eat much more now also. I have to measure when I can but sometimes that is impossible. If I measure at home my eye is much better calibrated for when I go out (also my stomach). Even if I don't know weight I try and stay a one cup. I do sometime eat more than one cup. I can eat much more of salad than anything else.
This is the challenge of maintenance for me. I can not go back to my old habits.

Shari, your loss is fantastic!
I stayed the same, AGAIN. And yesterday, most everything I ate came back up. I had 2 deviled eggs for breakfast - they stayed down just fine. I ate some shredded pork from lunch- up it came. Then tried some tuna salad for dinner - up it came. Not a good day for my pouch. Started w/ sf oatmeal today. So far, so good. Will have cottage cheese w/ splenda peaches for lunch - hoping it will stay down.
I did get some good news. All of my labs came back within normal limits. I'm going to see my primary in June for testing regarding the perimenopause. Still cannot figure out why I feel so bad.
Hope all of you are losers...
