Perception can be a fickle *****. We're all unique and I am not putting anybody's reasons to lose weight down but think of it this way. Your arteries, your pancreas, your kidneys, all of your improved, slimmer internal organs are SUPER sexy!
I was a little apprehensive to jinx it but it looks like the 170s are gone. I can truly recommend now a weekend routine of lots and lots of sleep combined with lots of energetic walking and tons of quality protein and low carb. I'm low carb in general, but most of my weight loss this past month (and it's way past my goal for May) has happened during weekends when I woke up in time for lunch and ate lots of barbecued goodies without the sugary sauces and replaced those with grilled veggies instead. I think sleep might be the "miracle" nutrient. Every time I've gotten 10 hours of sleep on the weekend, I've lost more weight than I expected for the whole week.
Good luck, everyone!
