It's Sunday yet again and time for my weekly weigh in. I weigh every day and track the results on a graph, but I count my official loss or gain each week on Sundays. Last week I weighed 224 pounds. This morning I got on the scale and saw 220. That's a good number! Four pounds gone this week.
I'm still taking phentermine and I'm also still eating smaller portions and "lower" carbs. I guess my diet is not technically LOW carb, because people who eat low carb tend to stay completely away from grains, potatoes, beans, and sometimes even fruit. I do still eat those things but in small amounts and infrequently. I learned on Medifast that eating no more than 15g of carbs in a sitting keeps my blood sugar level. I am flexible with that number, though, and sometimes have 20 or 25g in a sitting... but that's not very often. A lot of my meals have no carbs at all. So it balances out, and no food is off limits, and I learn to control myself and make choices based on my health. It's working and the weight continues to come off. If you'd like to see what I'm eating, you can see everything that has gone into my mouth since Wednesday on my Instagram: lynescapes Instagram.
Here's to another great week and a joyful Christmas season!
