I have been gone for a while, but I have not given up. And today I have exciting news to report!
I have officially lost 100 lbs!
Yes. From my highest weight ever recorded of 425 lbs, I have dropped to under 325 lbs. I can't believe it! I've come so far, and I am looking forward to being a normal-sized human by this time next year. I changed my short-term goal weight to 299 lbs because I want to get under 300 lbs next. I still can't imagine it, but I'm almost there!
Starting weight: 401 lbs
Current weight: 322.2 lbs ⇩
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 299 lbs
I'm more of a carnivore now than doing keto. So that has changed. I stalled in my weight loss for nearly 4 months as evidenced by the graphs on my graphs page. So I cut out the salads and a lot of dairy. As soon as I did that, my weight started falling off again. I call it "keto-vore," though, because I still like to consume olives and use coconut oil and coconut cream, etc. But I am not eating any vegetables as I have cut the fiber out. I stopped putting anything into my coffee. I take it black.
I am eating mainly protein and fat and trying to keep carbs as near to 0 as I can manage. I am liking it so far. I also recently noticed that my negative self-talk that used to be constant in my mind is gone. I don't know if it's because my moods are more stable, or if it's because I have been so successful in my weight loss. Either way, I like it, and I'm just going to enjoy it!
My grandmother is coming for a visit on the 26th of this month, and I can't wait to show her what I look like 100 lbs lighter than the last time she saw me. I already told her that I lost 100 lbs, but seeing it will make it real, I'm sure! I'm very excited about that. We will be taking a family photo that day -- myself, my husband, and my grandmother. She is 94 years old.
We will all be going on a cruise together in March as well. I hope to be under 300 lbs by then. I'm sure I can do it. It's less than 25 lbs from where I am right now.
Here is what you were probably waiting for... pics or it didn't happen!
And the amazing graph from this month:
