One More to Goal
This morning: 156.
One more pound to go. And then I'll think about the next goal.
Busy, busy, so will try to write a proper post later in the week.

You are a weight loss rock star! :)
What do you try to keep as your daily caloric intake?
It's low, Kim. I usually shoot for 1100-1000. I simply don't lose above that, no matter what, even if I'm working out like crazy. That's why WW was torture for me. I think it consistenly kept me around 1200 to 1500. That's maintenance for me, I think.
It makes it easier in that I usually eat the same things for breakfast and for lunch, and leave myself some wiggle room for dinner.
But it also makes weekends a challenge for me, since I get off my routine/schedule, and there's usually some restaurant eating involved.
I'm the SAME way!!! I swear I gain weight on weight watchers because my metabolism is so slow. As I've been tracking calories I realize how very low I have to keep it just to eek out tiny losses. It makes me feel better that I'm not alone in needing to REALLY monitor my calories. Do you track the split between protein, fat and carbs as well?
Thank you so much for sharing what works for you with me. It's such a help to have someone to talk to about this kind of stuff. :)
I don't track protein/fat/carbs. Keeping track of calories is challenge enough. I do try to make sure I'm getting enough protein, as in, make sure I eat some at each meal, but not worried about how many grams, because it makes me stay full longer. And fiber. Very important. If anything, I tend these days not to get enough vegetables. I get fruit at breakfast and lunch. Vegetables usually only at dinner, and then not always. I've been having to work late a lot, so often, it's a turkey sandwich or cereal for dinner when I get home at 9:30.
It's a help to me, too, having you and the others who stop by and who are also writing about this.
