Here I go again.
I was pretty successful on IP - lost 100 pounds in 6 months. Kept it off mostly for several months, but then slowly, slowly, started eating a bit more "because it didn't hurt, my clothes fit"... and now? I had to put a bunch of stuff in the spare bedroom closet as it was too small (pants). And shirts are showing a muffin top.
How much did I weigh at my lowest? 155.8
How much was my "low stable"? 157-158
My "middle stable"? 163-164.
How high did I regain before I jumped on the "oh **** no" wagon? to 178
I'm currently at about 168, and am planning to go down to about 150 (hopefully), at least "under 160."
And this time? I *will* do the phase off properly, not just "I'm there doing Phase 1 all the way, now I can start to add things!" Didn't work. That's how I got to 313 originally.
Wish me luck! I'm on Day 4 now, did my first "official weigh in" yesterday at 170 (was 168 at home that AM). Having to exercise a bit less, as energy is a bit low, but hopefully that will kick back up when I'm in ketosis. I gotta keep hitting the gym!
PS - anyone have a link to the "loose skin" thread? It's the bane of my existance! Muscles taut & toned under the bagginess...

I'm Baaaaaack - *sob*
