Blog: My Journey to Health (With Fasting and Raw Food)
I am starting to feel like I'll really make it to my first major goal (and the starting point for my new way of eating!) 18 more pounds before I hit the 199 mark. Then another 7 before I hit my goal for this fast...192. I have lost 25 pounds so far, plus 8 prior to this series of fasts, for a total of 33 pounds! I am so excited to so close to the 190's. It's been at least 10 years since I was last under 200 pounds.
My clothes are fitting differently. Some that I just got into are already getting too loose. Others are finally fitting again. I have boxes of clothing to go through once I stabilize, but for now, I'm trying on a few things each week, and donating to a friend everything that is becoming a tent. I want my clothing to show my weight loss, not hide it. In fact, most of my clothing was chosen because I could "hide" while wearing it. Like people couldn't tell that I was obese??

I've been over 200 pounds for I don't know how many years. In 2001 I lost 40 pounds and seen 180, but gained 20 back. So I've been right at 200-205 for several years now.
Yes, we do like to hide our obese bodies, who would want to see it? I sure don't. I'm juice fasting and have gotten down to 180 again as of this morning!! I know how you're feeling because I'm feeling the same way!! *clapping I can fit into 16's now, my legs still rub together but not as much, and I can see my thigh muscle when I flex my leg!! *dancing
Keep it up, you're doing great!

It's so nice to be in company of others who understand what you're going through. My hubby is taller than me, and was complaining of hitting 165! He's already back to 162, and heading toward the 155 he feels best at.
I am so excited to see the progress we are all making toward healthier, slimmer bodies. I can't wait to see myself in a pair of 16's! Another month and I may be there. It's this that keeps me going when I really want to eat.
