I've been eating clean for some time, counting calories and exercising, and ever so slowly, the weight has been coming off. It's coming off so, so, SO slowly now, like one or two pounds a month. I've had to re-examine everything that I'm doing, and sometimes, I just get so fed up...
I've had my body-fat percentage measured recently. For my size, I should be losing 1 lb. a week at 1300 calories a day, even if I'm sedentary. But my activity level is moderate, and I usually eat under 1800 calories a day, and every ounce I lose is hard won. And I get so hungry when I'm dipping under 1600 calories, but that's when my weight starts to drop a little faster. I just can't handle being so hungry all the time! Stupid hypoglycemia!
My life is in a huge state of flux right now, so I can't really make a big effort to focus on regular mealtimes, exercise and sleep. Hopefully later this month things will start settling into some sort of routine. But if anyone out there knows some great ways to battle hunger and hypoglycemia, I'd love to hear it!
