This Thing Does Work!!

I touched 400 pounds for the first time since 1982 today!!  That is a total loss this year of 200+ pounds, and 138 since finding CC!!  And 243 pounds from my official all time high weight (but I believe I was much more at one time). 

And it is all from eating clean and lots of activity.  Just following what the folk here at CC have been preaching.  Not only do you not want to over eat, but the key here, you don't want to under eat either. 

Starvation mode has been my main problem.  That, and my stubborness in not wanting to raise my cals.  But it works.  A 138 pounds ago I was eating next to nothing (about 800 cals a day), and now I eat up to 3500 cals a day.  I know it sounds insane, but it works. 

Have a GREAT YULE EVERYONE!!!!!
