Good morning FS friends,
Getting excited! Another major milestone is in sight. Another few weeks and 1.2 more lbs and that 100lbs lost might be on the books. Fingers and toes crossed. Then again, everytime a milestone is in sight my body doesn't always want to comply, or I change my diet a smidge and cause a slowdown. Note to self...much as I love oatmeal, even if consumed within my caloric allowance, something happens and weight loss stalls. So no oatmeal for me. Maybe that will be a maintenance food.
This weight loss journey is such a science experiment...what works, what doesn't. We are so unique as to how we metabolise food. Carbs, particularly grain based carbs just don't work for me. Such a shame as I love bread/baked goods and of course oatmeal. Always have, likely always will. Know now though that if down the road I have any it must be very limited. Is my health worth the give up? I believe so.
Over and out.

My dad used to get on to me for eating oatmeal. I'd say it was good for me. He'd say no it wasn't, oats are what he fed the livestock when he wanted them to put on weight. I never did figure out how to answer that back.

Me too Ann. I inherited my mom’s love of carbs (which ironically didn’t affect her weight), with my dad’s sluggish metabolism. Not the best combo. 🥴

Welcome to FS Deborah707! This community is so wonderfully supportive. Best wishes on your journey. As to strength and willingness? It was either take this seriously or have a catastrophic stroke. When presented with that choice, the decision to do this became a simple one. Past life attempts (50+ years worth) were always about looks. Failed miserably for a number of reasons. Health / mobility / quality of life even life itself - entirely different drivers and far more effective ones. You can do this too!
