Hope everyone had a Happy Easter Posted by Sonali on 4/13/2020, 1:56 pm Just stopping by to say hello! This is definitely a memorable Easter. It was different. I am the youngest of 10 and we did not gather like we normally do so we split up and celebrated that way. Had a nice dinner and FaceTime with the rest of the fam... we are trying to make the best of this situation. It's not easy and there's comforting food all around me... but everyday I try. Have not given up yet.

OH, SO NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU!! Posted by Yvonne on 4/25/2020, 12:28 pm, in reply to "Hope everyone had a Happy Easter " It's been trying for me, too!! All I have is the support of this Board to keep me going despite the external stressors. Yes, keep going Sonali!!

Re: Hope everyone had a Happy Easter Posted by Ann on 4/19/2020, 1:08 am, in reply to "Hope everyone had a Happy Easter " Happy belated. I am glad you are well I was trying to remember if it was you that lost 80 lbs SSIng in 3 months.

That's me! Posted by Sonali on 4/24/2020, 8:46 pm, in reply to "Re: Hope everyone had a Happy Easter " Hi Ann. Yes, I am the one that stuck through Cambridge religiously for 88 days losing 80+ lbs. At that time I was so close to being 400 lbs! I think I was at 385 lbs at my heaviest. I have since kept off that weight but have not been able to lose anymore. I am still under the 300 lb. mark but getting close to it during this quaranten life. I started making some daily changes (gradually) I am back to walking 10,000 steps minimum and drinking a lot of water... I started drinking green juices and drinking more tea. Need to make some eating changes as well. I can't seem to let go of carbs and sweets but I am aware that it has to change in order to see progress. Good luck everyone and stay safe!

Re: That's me! Posted by Jean W on 4/28/2020, 8:25 pm, in reply to "That's me! " Hello Sonali! Wow, you stuck to Cambridge for 88 days and lost 80 pounds! That's impressive. I suppose that was sole source the whole time? Sounds as if you are making some good changes now. It's so hard to let go of carbs, but I do so much better when I cut them way down.

When was that, Sonali? Posted by Yvonne on 4/27/2020, 6:19 pm, in reply to "That's me! " I saw your recent photo and you looked considerably thinner!!!! I must have missed those three months you were on the Cambridge sole source program. My younger sister was 300 pounds, fasted for 3 months and lost 120 pounds. It's all about the mindset. Well, I am embarking again with what little Cambridge I have left. I tried the 10,000 steps with Fitbit and it really works. I hope with the warmer weather, I will be able to walk more (of course, with social distancing). It's so nice to know that Cambridge worked for you, Sonali, because I know we spoke about staying on the program many years ago. Stay safe and be well.
