It has been quite some time since I've posted a Journal Entry, but that isn't because I've given up. In fact, I finally found THE way for me, that has allowed me to lose 36 pounds, with no cravings and being able to eat so much food that sometimes I don't feel like eating it all. I discovered that I am addicted to sugar and flour, so I went cold-turkey and stopped eating all types of sugar, sugar substitutes and flour. As a result, since January 2021, I've been eating this way, and my doctor was thrilled. He has been trying to persuade me to give up sugar for years. My triglycerides came down to normal levels, as did my total cholesterol and glucose. On maintenance I have been adding more food, just trying to maintain this level. I weigh and measure everything that goes into my mouth, eat plenty of vegetables, fruits, lean protein and the good fats, like almonds, avocado and olive oil. I also use real butter; no margarine. I tried to upload a photo, but it was taking so long, I couldn't do it.
