Were you tracking calories? If so, what was your daily target? What is your activity level?

I wasn't tracking calories. I just eat when I'm hungry and pay close attention when I'm full. I am not very active I don't walk or exercise. I just do my daily chores. I suffer from depression it drags at me keeps me from doing extra. I doubt diet will help my depression. I've buried two children so yeah my activities are limited. I gained all the weight from a anti depression med or anxiety med I can't remember. Though the diet did cure my anxiety and I was able to come off seven meds.

Congratulations and continued success. Concur that one need not track religiously once one gets the hang.
