Oh YES! This is my lowest weight since starting my journey on December 27, 2012. I've lost all the weight I gained back after going "maintenance" in August (because I cut my foot up badly, NOT because I had reached goal!), and I've dropped all the holiday weight, and now I'm into "virgin territory"! rofl Such a heady feeling, to actually KNOW I can do this, that I AM doing this. And I'm not suffering to get where I want to be.
Quite the opposite, actually, I'm learning that I actually like many foods I didn't eat because I just knew I'd hate them...like dried beans and lentils. Made a pot of spicy dahl...OMG I love lentils now! lol And black beans...those things are seriously GOOD! And so good for you, too. And who woulda thunk that kale would actually taste good? Or that a baked potato could be eaten WITHOUT being smothered in butter or oil, and still taste delish??? Not I, that's fer sher. But turns out I DIDN'T know everything there was to know about foods and my own taste preferences after all.
And I never imagined that I'd ever be able to leave the table when there was still food on my plate. I'm not an emotional eater, I can't blame my food consumption on my state of mind ...instead, I'm an excessive eater. I eat because it tastes good and I enjoy the act of eating. I don't eat to fill my stomach, I eat to EAT! But I'm finally coming to grips with my problem. I now find myself NOT cleaning my plate, as my parents would have said. I measure portions, and count the full calories...but when I find myself comfortably full I'm actually REALIZING it in time to remove the plate. It's taken me over a year to reach this point, so maybe I'm a slow learner...but I AM learning, and that's the point of our journey through life, to learn more and more about ourselves, right? ;-)
I wish everyone a wonderful OP Monday, and hang in there...because we CAN do this! ;-)
