Wooo hoooo!!!!   108lbs...wow!!!  That's amazing!!!   Is your weight loss slowing down?   Are you finding you are more hungry and able to eat a bit more?    I just hit 7 months too (last week) and my loss is creeping very slowly now....like less than 2 lbs this whole month.    Plus I just find I'm more interested in food...am eager for my next meal....and that my 1/2 cup meals are needing a bit more to them....maybe not a full cup yet, but moving in that direction.

It's weird because last month, I lost 8lbs. at a weird rate. For instance I had one week where I lost 5.5lbs. but then no loss for over a week. It's the first time I had a big loss then nothing since the very beginning of this process. It also didn't help that I had to take time away from exercising to take care of my daughter through pinkeye and a nasty cold that stuck around for two weeks. My poor baby! She's better now, so I can get back on the wagon. 

I do find I am a bit hungrier, but it's usually when I haven't had enough water throughout the day. I have to be vigilant about keeping up with that. I'm definitely eating almost a whole cup at this point--more if it's slider food like salad--but, that's my plan. I was eating 1/2 cup by three months, so it's been a slow progression to a cup.

I just had my six month checkup and was told I should be trying to get to 1 cup on my meals. I increased my food intake and now my weight loss has sped up. I was losing not quite 2 pounds a week and the last two weeks I've lost 3.

Thanks for the insight ladies...that is helpful.   I get close to a cup and then get really full, but I see it getting there very soon.   

 

Sorry your little one was sick. . . I know all about that and it can really de-rail your efforts.
