I just got home from another medical trip for one of my kids, and we were in a hotel, eating on the road, sitting in the car for hours, etc. I always expect a little gain after a road trip, but this time I was pleased to see no gain. I weighed 224 pounds the day we left, and 224 pounds when we got back. That's a win for me! In fact that's 4 pounds gone this week (3 re-losing the Thanksgiving bloat plus 1 fresh pound).
So I started November weighing 232 pounds which gives me a loss of 8 pounds for the month. That's the same loss as October and I'm pretty happy about it! It feels so good to be "less fat" and this weight is a lot more tolerable (less miserable) than 260+. Let's see what I can do this month with Christmas and New Year's Eve and all the celebrations, parties, and food that surrounds the holidays.
I feel soooo much better eating less! I think about food less because I have a pretty limited daily menu I choose from, but I don't feel deprived because on special occasions I still can choose to eat any food I want. This feels like something I can continue always. The only catch is whether I will still feel that way once I am off the phentermine.
