Thats about 1200 cal per day, and that plus light exercise has been the right combination. I don't plan on changing my diet drastically back after I reach my goal weight. I will just add some more meat and veggies probably. I never eat sweets or desserts. Ever. Quit that cold turkey in Dec 2005. In 2006 I lost about 35 pounds just from that one change alone. As I have been ill the past 18 months, I have (ironically) gained 20 pounds, so now I'm getting rid of it. And the weird thing is, I'm not hungry all the time. I don't think about food constantly. I don't crave sweets. I just don't. Who'da thunk it?

Oh and by the way, I am not losing weight because I feel fat. I don't think that way about myself like I did when I was younger. I am losing it because it has made my body more feminine shaped, and I have decided to start T this year and want to get my body in the right shape for the best possible results.

*HUGS* Candace!

Hey

Congrats on the weight loss, my dear.

You're lucky *wink* Most of us have to deal with cravings and sweet tooth and all that yummy stuff.

Maybe I'll be lucky like you one day and not have to fight so hard. *nod*
