I have made a few mistakes on this journey and gained weight but I have learned a lot about my habits. Some carbs do not agree with me at all.

 

Last night I tried some tuna hubby brought in and had an adverse allergic reaction. Thank God I had liquid benadryl on hand. I turned the bottle up! :-)

 

My friend is getting sleeved sometime next month and we have already taken advantage of the sale SW Airlines is having and got tickets for a girl's weekend in January.

 

NSV - people at my job noticed last week that I have been losing weight. LOL Its funny because I didn't lose a pound last week as I pack on fluid for TOM.

I realize I am a slow loser. I killed my metabolism with all the diets and starvation attempts to lose weight in the past. I almost tried every med or herbal remedy available.

So today, I am 206.8. I am hoping to get to onederland by the end of the month. My Thanksgiving goal will be another 10 lbs. I have leg surgery on the 30th (to remove the titanium rod) and will be laid up for 3 weeks.

I will check back in one month from now.

Thanks everyone for your support and just listening to me talk/vent at times!!!

Bendryl is a life saver lol Ive had a few reactions that it has helped :-) Ive tried many fad diets so I hope I have killed my metabolism I feel like I don't have any. Ive heard a few people who said that with being a slower loser they don't have as much excess skin so if thats your case you may be lucky but hey on the bright side you are still loosing! Congrats on your success Hun! I wish you many blessings to come.

It's a myth that you can 'mess up' your metabolism. Certain things can effect it but not in the ways most people think.

I hear a lot of people say that they are slow losers. There are benefits to losing more slowly. Excess skin for example, the slower you lose the more time you skin has to shrink and not be so saggy if that's what you skin is going to do. Plus you can only lose so much weight so fast before it becomes unhealthy. Just be happy your weigh is continuing a downward trend.

I'm right there with you; 2 months out and getting close to wonderland. I can't wait! I'm sure you'll achieve your goal since it's not unrealistic.

Best of luck to you and a speedy recovery come your leg surgery. :)
