First Summer in 15 years that I don't gain 10 lbs.
I gain weight every summer, and it's usually 10 pounds or more. I eat more, have way more cocktails, exercise less, go out for dinner more, watch what I eat less...etc. etc.
This was my first Summer since I began low carb last March. True to form I ate more, had way more cocktails, exercised less...you get the picture,... but I sincerely tried to eat no rice, potato, bread, or sugar (cheated a bit a couple of places). I did not deprive myself, let's say. The result: after 2 full months of this, I gained a mere 2 pounds. This time last year (and the year before and the year before,) I clocked in at anywhere from 145 - 148. This year: 132.
I'm so encouraged by this and feel more than ready to straighten out my act and lose those 2 plus another 5 if possible.
This way of eating really works well for me.
