[QUOTE="Larissima, post: 994437, member: 160311"] Great progress, [USER=191472]@JenniferW[/USER] ! It's the change in eating pattern that is important, weight is really just a side effect and it will follow. I agree that LC helps but it's not the panacea for everyone. I have found myself binging on such LC staples as cheese, butter and cream, so in the last few weeks I have stopped having them in the house. I have not completely eliminated them from my diet, but just not having them in the fridge makes it much easier not to think of, for example, snacking on a butter-cheese-butter sandwich 3-4 times before dinner (!)... I am still trying not to weigh myself too often, as I get really depressed and frustrated if the scale is not showing a lower number, even though I know it's not about the weight - it's about improving my health, feeling and even looking better (which is all happening). Also, I have another 25 kgs to lose just to get to the top of "normal" BMI, and even at a fast rate of weight loss it will take another year or so, so what's the point of being impatient? I might as well be kind to myself and allow my body to get stronger and reflect my now healthy lifestyle at its own pace. [/QUOTE]
