Hi Anita
Congratulations on your first child. I gained with each pregnancy. Also many of us are in your position...40 lbs. to lose. Even without a baby. Great you caught it while you were still under 200 lbs. People have all kinds of ways to re-lose, but it usually is slower than we want. I am a believer of keep what I don't want to eat out of the house. It is hard enough when I am out. You will find what works for you. take care, Tri

Good morning Botts:
Yesterday the surgeon told me I have 2 more weeks of non weight bearing on my foot. My stitches are out and the incision is intact. I have house guests over the next 2 weeks. They are easy going people that don't mind a little dust. It will be nice to have people around the house. Have a great day everyone.

Today was a tough day. I did it without sugar. Huge victory! The weight is really coming off slow. I lost 5 1/2 pounds in 2 weeks. My calories are between 500-800 a day. Mostly on the low side. I will keep going forth. At least I am going in the right direction.
Wishing everyone success in staying BOTT.
The Mayo clinic ... has been pushing the whole "natural carbs": for years if not decades.. I bought that a few years ago... that put me over 250..and needing RNY...
newest study suggest lower carbs - more fat- moderate proteins are the key. Plus IF. Intermittent fasting.
When i started the IF - I did that for my gut- my IBS.. at the same time - my weight just dropped ... Ia m not eating less calories.. just different - more fat and more real foods...
I eat during 8-10 hours in every 24 hour window. Not only My A1C dropped from 5.5 to 5.1.. and I dropped to where my doc told me not to lose anymore weight...(I still dropped 2 lbs - trying to stop losing)
I eat nuts, nut butters (NSA) bacon, eggs, coconut, non starchy veggies, pork rinds, and .. some berries...
I am now increasing berries to stop the weight loss..
I don't eat grains or starchy veggies...- due to IBS- they can really cause a lot of pain. Dairy - I am allergic.. so try to stay away from that also..
I eat late at night- app 8-9 pm.. then don't eat until at least 12 next day... I push non calorie liquids in the morning...

"Failure is not falling down, It is not getting up once you fell... So pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again...."
hugs.. sorry you are struggling...
I am finally (a year???) at goal and below... the last 5-10 lbs took me app 6 months to lose and stabilize my weight....
