Just wanted you to know I made polenta today. It was so easy, just the polenta-type cornmeal and water. I made it in my instant pot. I had a serving this morning with strawberries.
I understand your feeling of wanting to just get it all done. My journey has been a slow one and that has been my fault. I just have to realize that I have learned so much on the way and once I get there I will stay there because of all i learned.
Have a great 4th !

I also wish people would keep their comments to themselves. Everytime i would get down near
target weight i would hear from my mother your too thin.. Which was not true.

Plus I had great news with my recent blood work.
MY CHOLESTEROL IS 127!!!
I had a high of 222 back before I started this plan, when I was trying the stupid keto thing. My doctor wanted to put me on statins and I said no, I'll work on it. I started dropping some weight, then later started WFPB.
So this was highly encouraging to me, it shows me that it works for real.
Onward to tomorrow.

I’m new to this site as well and have struggled with my weight too. You are an inspiration in your weight loss journey. I find it difficult to stay on plan when I’m away from my home turf, so kudos to you for losing while helping family members. That’s awesome! I love eating plant based, my problem is snacking on all things chocolate . I’ll have to do better with no nuts and very limited chocolate. All the best to you. Carol
