Well it's been a while since I last wrote in here, but all is very well. I have lost nearly 20 pounds and haven't felt this good since I don't know when.
I had to go to an allergist and discovered that I have a severe allergy to a fairly common preservative (sulphates), so that cut out alot of foods that I had allowed myself on my diet. Great!
After a day of feeling super-sorry for myself, I came up a new diet plan which allowed me a bit more calories with more options in my carbs, which I had kept to a bare, bare minimum and more protein to keep me feeling fuller longer. After the initial adjustment, my food cravings have virtually diminished and I`m not food-tripping like crazy anymore (perhaps sub-consciously in fear of another allergic reaction).
I now have to eat like a total hippy, but my skin has never looked better and I am actually moving into a Medium size (except for my bust, and hopefully that will begin soon!).
I hope that all of you are doing great & staying strong!! xo
