Unfortunately, I still haven't lost weight. I have actually gained quite a bit, and am up over 30 pounds higher than I was back when I was trying to lose weight. I have tried several diets and workout programs, but haven't been successful yet. The main thing I have made sure of though, with whatever I've tried is that I will not eat less than 1200 calories a day. I will not do anything unhealthy to my body, which includes diet pills.
I am currently, as of this morning, 5'0", 152 pounds, and my measurements are 39"-33"-42". I am no longer striving to get down to a ridiculous number on the scale, or be a size -00. I just want to be healthy. I don't want to have health problems. I currently have hypothyroidism, hypoglycemia, Gilbert's disease, and who knows what else. I want to get rid of all my medicines and just be healthy. I want to be able to get up from my chair without feeling out of breath. It's that simple. I just want to be healthy.
To accomplish this I plan to keep a journal of everything I eat. I love Sparkpeople.com for logging my daily food intake and exercise minutes. I plan to eat healthier, including more fruits and vegetables in my daily food intake, but still will basically eat what I want. Nothing will be off limits. I have to simply re-learn what it feels like to be full. I will eat until I'm full and then be finished, no regrets. I will exercise regularly too. Exercise is good for so many reasons, only one of which being weight loss. The biggest reason I love it is for stress relief, which I need daily.
I know that with lots of hard work and perseverance, anything is possible.
