As they say in my mother's native country: GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAL! Just over two years (two years and three weeks) after starting this journey, and after adjusting the target slightly a couple of times, I've hit my goal weight. 72.575 kg. 11 st 6 lbs. Body Mass Index 23. I started out at 380 lbs, (172.37 kg; 27 st 2 lbs, BMI of 54.5). I've lost just about 100 kilos.
Now begins the hard part, staying here for the rest of my life. My doctor recommends a maintenance diet of 1,700 calories a day. That actually seems like a lot to me, which tells me that my perspective has changed. Yesterday, after having fasted in the morning in order to have an X-Ray with barium meal on an empty stomach, eating 800 calories in the evening felt like a great deal. I'm determined not to go back to what I was.
A friend said on her Live Journal that diets don't work (she'd lost 100 lbs in three years. I disagreed with her, mostly over the meaning of "diet" (that is, a diet is simply what you eat as a normal practice not what you eat to lose weight. So saying "diets don't work" is rather like saying "breathing doesn't work". The right diet works, it worked for me, and it can work for anyone with the discipline; it's a matter of changing lifestyle. On that point she and I were in agreement.
Anyway, I feel like rejoicing. With a cup of caffeine-free, sugar-free tisane.
