Was happy to see the line on my profile changed from red to some color I don't recognize (pale orange?). But nice to see even though it's a long way from blue or even green.
I over analyze and over think everything. When I have a lot of weight to lose (and I have about 50 more pounds to go) and am motivated to lose it, I can get very focused and do whatever it takes to see the number on the scale go down. Right now I pay attention to getting at least 40 grams of protein a day and keeping my calories close to 1000 and eating less processed foods. I also practice IF, eating when I get up, usually around 7 and stop eating anywhere from noon to 2pm or so. So I eat 2 meals a day with snacks (usually with some protein, like nuts). This is working fine for right now. But I know from experience I won't be able to do this forever. My desired WOE is portion control - to eat what I want but much less than I would normally eat. 2 years ago I got through Thanksgiving and Christmas with a small weight LOSS! I ate the family meals, but much less. I had a decent serving of white meat turkey, no skin. And a little more than a tablespoon of the rest: mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce. I even had a piece of apple pie, about 1/4 of a normal size piece, if not less. I skipped the area with the chips and dip and other appetizers. I may have had a small glass of wine, but skipped the eggnog. I was very satisfied, not stuffed. So that's where I want to get to eventually. But for now I will continue with what I am doing and then transition to something sustainable for me. Right now the motivation is to just get the weight off. I hope to see a dietician or nutritionist about 15-20 pounds from now to help me figure out an eating plan that will work for me.
Don't know if that makes sense to anyone but me. But it's how I think. I tend to compartmentalize things. I do thing 1 until it is no longer effective, and then move on to thing 2. Maybe once I reach a "green" line I'll make the appointment with the dietician. I have a friend who has been seeing her and it has helped her so much.

Well done. I have been in both camps. The 'deprivation at all costs' to get the number down with the goal to have a handle on it at goal weight (and always lost). Now I'm in camp 'eat less, try to move more, whatever happens will happen but this is one day you won't be getting back B so enjoy it.' I swear. I keep hijacking journals today. Sorry.

Fritzy, so often when you journal I think it could be me writing... I really get almost everything... And it is like looking in a mirror. Everything from your WW days of eating light or almost nothing leading up (or down) to the weekly weigh in, to how how you do IF (afternoon through to next morning) and wondering about if it is sustainable. I no longer do the super low cal days because I am lifting and can't do well with no energy. But I really think the IF (at least about half the time) might be sustainable. I like how I feel! I like eating a satisfying amount of food then just being done for the day. .one week from today we leave on our little trip to the beach. I can hardly wait. I sure want to be below goal before leaving and not gain on the time away... Just, I also want to have a special time that I am not always thinking thinking about how I am eating. Anyway, good going, Fritzy!

Thanks for the support everyone! LindiLush - look at your profile and under your weight history you will see a color line. If you post your journals for people to see, the line is there as well. Bella - thanks for your comments. I'm trying to move more right now, since the weather is better. The current diet isn't too difficult for me, I just know it isn't something I can do forever.

Melissa - it's nice to know there are those who understand me! Sometimes it's hard to explain. And who knows how I will feel about IF once (or if) I reach goal. For most of my adult life I ate less for dinner than lunch. Something like scrambled eggs or toast and tea or cereal.
