Congrats!!!

I had to laugh, I have/had the same weight loss pattern as you do. It never bugged me since I log everything, but still.. that's the way our bodies work!

Sounds like you are on the right path to me, but I'm not a hard-hard liner myself either.. 95+% of the time I was right on plan.. but I also planned for more "off plan" times when I was going out where I may encounter some home-made goodness.. I'd have a bite or two with no regrets, and do my best to track & log regardless of what I had through the event. Everyone (hopefully) is self-aware by the time they hop on a table to get surgery that they know what will and won't work for them without justification.. some need abstinence, some do not- no one outside yourself can know this.. Good on you for finding something that works for you, and is sustainable! That's my biggie that I seem to harp on- sustainable habits.

Thanks you have done so amazing too. I think for some of us we have to find peace and balance with food. Like you, I choose to do it this way. It keeps me from binging out.
