Whole30 Month 7 Results

Yesterday was my weigh-in for the seventh month. @kobesbuddy and @DianneN are waiting for this post and the picture above to show you the new me. I didn't weigh myself at the pool yesterday due to the wonderful, and I mean wonderful, snowstorm we had yesterday that gave us 5.3 inches of wonderful whiteness on the ground. You might have seen the last post with my car covered in it. I did weigh myself at home, though and the grand total for this month is a loss not a gain like last month, of 4 pounds. Not a lot, but it does bring me to just over a hundred pounds to go now and eighteen to finally feel like I'm on the downward slope to this weight loss program I've been on. Some of you know I also added two new items to my diet this past month. We all have a sweet tooth, me too, and going seven months without any sweets is long, even for me. One thing I knew I could add to my diet without cheating was almond flour. Then I heard it was National Pancake Day the day I bought the flour, and went looking for a compatible recipe and found one. So, now I have pancakes on my diet, without cheating. With the addition of pancakes, it gave me the possibility that I could make cookies too, and with some improvising, made a good chocolate cookie, again, without cheating on my diet. My friend arrived shortly after I called her to let her know I was home after having to leave because they plowed the parking lot here, and the above picture is the result of this month's progress with the program. I am now down a total of 32 pounds and I'm very happy about that. The picture on the left is last month, the picture on the right was taken a short while ago. Thanks for reading.

Thank you. It doesn't even feel like I'm doing a lot of work for it. Swimming definitely, but the food is easy, healthy, and a no brainer.

That's exactly what the doctor suggested loose weight for me. But I just won't listen until this gout came on me again. But I hope this year I could make progress. It's been harder to loose weight as you grow older. You are an inspiration to me, please keep it up my friend.

You are doing so well with your diet program. It is good that you have found a way to introduce something sweet. It is easier to follow a diet if we can eat things we love.
