4 Months

Aug 16, 2009

I am now down 48.1 lbs.  My weight loss seems to be slowing, but I'm still losing something every week.  I've also been eating out a lot more.  Hmmm, correlation??  My hair is continuing to fall out and it is much drier than before.  Not bald yet though.  I again didn't really exercise this month - just a walk now and then.  This coming month though, I'm going to do the Slim in 6 program to give me a goal with a defined end date.  Hopefully, it will motivate me to start moving, which will get me more motivated to move in general.  It's always hard to start, but usually easier once you get in the groove.

Haven't had any real issues this month.  I've learned that I just can't eat any kind of pasta, except for ravioli, or hamburgers because I inhale them.  That used to work in the old days, but now it's a no-can-do.  My stomach pushes the eject button and out it comes.  Since I can't control myself, I avoid those trigger foods. 

I still haven't restricted my eating, but I think I'm getting closer to having to do that to amp up my weight loss.  I eat whatever I want and stop when full.  I think I'm going to concentrate on not eating out more than once a week and exercising this month to see if that helps speed things up a bit.  If not, then next month I'll cut back on the carbs.
