A slooooow but steady weight loss

I finally made it! I've lost 10% of my body weight! That was my first goal - now it's on to the next 10%.

Cleaned up my eating. I had started it months ago - less sugar, less processed food, better oils, grains and meats. Less dairy. My DD doc suggested I try a ketogenic diet since a normal diet doesn't work well for me. I.e. calories in, calories out. I have found that to be true for sure! I keep a food journal and track calories every day. The calories may be where they should be but if it had extra sugar and refined flour and bad stuff in it, my weight usually goes up and not down. SOOOOO frustrating!

I've tried to make it a permanent lifestyle change and have been somewhat successful with lapses. It had to be a diet that would work for me and I would stick with.

So happy to have gotten this far! I hope things are working well for you, too.
