I moved to a different country back in January and since then I have been on the loseit bandwagon. It has been great! I am down about 30 pounds. <175 to 147lbs> but a friend of mine visited 3 weeks ago. While she was here I was conscious of what I was eating but I wasn't very strict. I only gained about a pound.
But since she left I have had a hard time sticking to the 1200 calories I can eat. I am 5ft nothing so I really need to stick to that to see any good weekly results. BUT here is the great news! Although I haven't lost, I haven't gained either! I was terrified to weigh myself. I thought I had to have gained 5 pounds from snacking and too big of portions but I didn't. Eating at 1200 calories really has showed me that I really don't eat as much as i used to. I thought i was pigging out and i wasn't!
This gives me a lot of hope for when I finally get to the maintenance step. I was worried that my measly 1600 calories would still feel too little for normal eating but I proved to myself that I will be able to eat and snack without gaining it all back!
Now I am back on the bandwagon. Here is to the last 30!
