There are Buddy groups and challenges, or since you like to write start a journal, or do more reading about newer versions of LC, definitely there is more emphasis now on using real food. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb Gary Taubes book Why We Get Fat have helped many understand their weight loss struggles and how to overcome them.
All the best, |
It's true, it's shocking how long it's been. Gosh, in that time I could've lost quadruple what I need to and been maintaining all this time if I'd just had some discipline.
I was always skinny as a kid and young adult. Even after babies 1-4 I dropped right back down to a size 4 or 5 within a few months. It was #5 that did me in I never lost the weight after he was born, and now weigh a good 15 lbs more than I did the day I had him. Hmph... 
The older I get the tougher it is, too. I just hit the magical menopause (yikes...the hot flashes!! oh boy, they're rough!) in February of this year, so I know I really have my work cut out for me this time.
I'll definitely be looking around the forum and getting in on challenges and such. Thanks!!!
