5 days BOTT and I lost another pound!!!!

Good morning BOTTs

I am on day 5 BOTT and I am 209 lbs. this morning. I have been going in circles for 11 1/2 years, but I think I found a way to make it to my bmi of being overweight rather than obese. What works for others has not worked for me. What is working for me won't necessarily work for others.

First I found a new endocrinologist who changed my insulin regime. My blood sugars are reasonably steady.

I cut out 2 of my 6 meals. The last hour before a meal is difficult. I make myself busy from my "to do" list...an idea from a therapist years ago.

I am trying to eat more real food and am not replacing any "junkie food" in the house. We are eating more veggies and at least 2 pieces of fruit everyday. The fewer ingredients on the label the better. We are not drinking many calories if any. My husband is doing this too and feels better as well. Have a great day. Tri
