more on cheating...
Hey you. Why did I cheat? Well with this PCOS, I could stay on a diet and GAIN weight. So I figured, I'm not going to lose anything anyway, I may as well enjoy a good meal. Of course, way back then, my idea of a good meal was not a healthy meal.
It took a LOT of years for me to figure out that even if I wasn't losing, at least I wasn't gaining, so that for ME was an accomplishment. Like maintenance now, I'm not losing anymore, but at least I'm not gaining.
At our age, I think we both know that sometimes the best we can do is keep on keeping on for no weight loss. Mentally, this royally sucks, but it beats that wide spread that the rest of our peeps have, no?
