Thanks, sweetie. This was years and years ago, when I was pregnant. Then I got "stuck" at around 150 for years. It wasn't until I was put on a low-blood-sugar "diet" by a semi-holistic doctor that I dropped down to the 120 that I am now, and have maintained for about 13 years. When I look back on it, it was probably as close to Paleolithic as one could get without knowing about Paleo, which I did not at the time. It was all meats (no goose, which was really a bummer, hehehe...I missed my goose sandwiches!!!), restricted fruits and the like. Also, I had to eat every two hours, which, at the time I thought Woo Hoo, being the food hound that I am, but that was REALLY hard, believe it or not. This was about two weeks before my wedding, and my best friend, who flew down from Pennsylvania to design and fit my gown, was following me around trying to stuff food down me all the time!! Much to her chagrin, I dropped the last twenty pounds in those two weeks, and she was continually
having to take in my dress. Once, she got so frustrated she poked me in the hind-end with one of her sewing pins, hehehe. Anyway, I still pretty much follow that regime...I graze throughout the day and have a very hard time actually eating a full meal at a sitting. (Which makes my yorkies happy since they get the leftovers, lol.)
Love,
Bren
