Getting there...

MEow said:

I was at a point where I felt that I had stalled in my weight-loss, plus my
appetite went up again, and I got more tired. I didn't know why, but
thought that eating less cheese might be a good idea, but what to eat
instead?... after some consideration, I decided to start eating fish again,
as the time I did that was the only time I've ever been the weight I want
to be.

That helped, and my boyfriend has told me that he can tell a big
difference, so I tried the pair of trousers, which I use as my goal: I want
to fit into them comfortably. Before starting LC, I couldn't close the
zipper, but last night I could close them completely! Okay, so they don't
fit comfortably, and I wouldn't sit down in them, but it's still a great
thing for me to be able to close them. This means that I'm close now! My
appetite has also gotten smaller again, so though I'd rather be a
vegetarian I seem to be healthier when I eat fish once in a while...

I think I deserve a reward, so I will treat myself to an appointment with a
proper foot-care-person (I don't know the English word, but they treat your
feet throughoutly, and when you leave it's like you're flying).

I've also eaten out once now - I just had the fish, and asked them if they
could substitute the potatoes with some more vegetables. No problems.

That's the latest news on me, now that I've been LC for almost two months.

Woo hoo! You're doing great, Nikitta!

I like your idea of a reward, too. That must feel fabulous.

Kind regards,

Congratulations, and that's the ticket! Find your own path, and follow it.

Fish is very good for you, as are green leafy veggies. Cheese is okay for
an occasional snack, but many people react as you do to it. You have
modified your diet to achieve the best results for you.

A "foot care person", in the US, is probably a podiatrist. At any rate,
keep on keeping on! We all have the same outlook and the same goal!
