It's Tammy!'s video: Vlog 21 - It s Crazy But I ve Lost Over 30 lbs in 8 Weeks

Vlog - It's Crazy, But I've Lost Over 30 lbs in 8 Weeks! Hey guys, It's Tammy! Welcome to my crazy channel! Glad you decided to join me on my Crazy Cancer Journey! In today's video, I share my surprising weight loss journey! I knew I had lost weight, but for some reason, did not realize just how much I have actually lost! Don't get me wrong, it is a nice feeling to lose weight, but I have to be honest and admit that I never set out to lose weight or diet etc. It just happened! Mycosis Fungoides is part of the Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma cancer group. I also have SLE Lupus, Hashimito Thyroidism, Diabetes Type 1 and a few other chronic illnesses. All of these illnesses actually promote weight gain and I had started gaining weight around 2003. From 2003 to 2016, I actually went from about 140 lbs to 285 lbs! I had tried to lose weight in the past but was only ever able to lose around 20 lbs! So I gave up! I began to notice my eating habits were changing. In 2016, I went from 285 lbs to about 215 lbs. I had lost around 70 lbs simply by cutting down on my portion sizes and cutting out a lot of processed and junk food. I also began eliminating things like pop (soda), chips, fast foods, breads, pastries etc. Because of the fact that I have cancer, I increased my healthy protein and vegtables and dairy. Some of the weight loss was also because my appetite decreased after chemotherapy and I was finding that I would sometimes have to force myself to eat. At each appointment at the Cross Cancer, I get weighed. I remember thinking I had gained weight! However, I was stunned when they told me I had lost 16.4 kgs! That is over 36 lbs! In 8 weeks! I am still in shock! I had noticed my clothes were all too big but I did not realize I had lost this much weight! I am now under 200 lbs and am wearing a regular size clothing in either LG/XL! I still have about another 50 lbs to lose before I reach my ideal weight! My tips for losing weight? Portion control and eliminating foods that do not promote a healthy weight! Eliminate pop and junk food and all processed foods! Stay away from foods found in the middle grocery isles! Don't diet! Make healthy lifestyle changes! And be careful about making unrealistic goals! And most importantly, LIMIT YOUR FAST FOOD INTAKE! I am trying to reach 1000 subscribers, so please, if you haven't subscribed, please subscribe! I just want to thank everyone for all their support! It means so much to me! Thank you! So I hope that you enjoy the video!
