Starting to feel positive about all this :)
 

This morning I FINALLY broke my stupid plateau of hovering in the low 280s and slid into the 270s, and it's starting to feel real. I went through a few rough weeks of overeating, but I got back on plan—something I never did before after slipping up on a diet. I'm actually starting to feel a little bit proud of myself for doing this the right way instead of going through my usual cycle of bingeing and starving. It's starting to feel like this may be the real thing. :)

I had to go through the same thing with overeating and then having to get back on the horse. Hang in there the closer you get to goal the more real it's going to feel.

Yay! Sounds like you are making more of a lifestyle change than "dieting". Keep it up!

Super! Keep going!

Good to hear, Paradise! A positive attitude can go a long way.

Congrats for getting back on track, especially after recognizing that you had been overeating.

That is great and really inspirational!

Thanks! :cb:
