NOOO! I just lost weight!!
Everything is awesome! I just wanted to write a quick note that, after 4 years of trying to reduce my weight below the all elusive 200 pound mark (I'm 6 foot), I finally broke through the barrier today! I actually weighed in at 198!! This is huge for me explaining my celebratory behavior.
You may be saying, "Big deal, it's 2 pounds." Which is true, but what is also true is that invisible wall has been this perimeter that I simply could not get past. My weight, before this change in eating, would "yo-yo" up and down between 200 and 208 pounds. It would hover at 203, then climb the next day to 206, then the next day down to 202, then in a couple days sky rocket to 208, and then crash land down to 200, but never to go below. And then it would start all over again.
Looking back, and I discussed this previously with Christian, it must have been water weight. He'd mentioned that the Glutamate was probably the culprit. Fat cells don't change that quickly. And it looks like it was! Since the new diet, the scale has settled down and rested between 200 and 201. It's done this for the last month, but today, the scale FINALLY dipped down below that invisible barrier for the first time IN 4 YEARS!!! Also my blood pressure has normalized. It used to be high!
It just points to the healthy nature of this diet. I really can't imagine eating any better than I am right now. It's unbelievable how it's changed me mentally, and now physically.
The proof is in the glutamate-free pudding!
P.S. - There's no such thing as glutamate-free pudding. Eat an apple instead.
