My eating plan contains various elements:
- diet is different than abstinence.
- I have a regular allergy diet--avoid foods I am allergic to: milk, dairy, soy, nuts, peanuts, etc
- I have an addictive allergy diet, called abstinence. This means avoiding totally anything I have an addictive allergy to: sugar, white flour, alcohol. (These are difficult to recover from, because of their addictive qualities!)
- and I have a losing weight diet:
- small portions of meat, fish, poultry (3-4 oz)
- avoid snack foods
- small portions of whole grains
I have lost 33 pounds

Wings? You were worried about the beer, and you had wings for dinner?Hmmm... I'm thinking I know why you are "plateaued." ;-)Are wings on your "abstinence" diet? I guess I don't understand your specific diet, which I know is very unusual because of your food allergies... but still, honestly, I think 4 chicken wings are the equivalent my entire day's calorie intake! Chicken skin is all fat, pretty much. All this aside, you are still doing WONDERFULLY!!!!!! What is your total pounds lost for the year? I'm guessing more than 30 lbs., which is FABULOUS... especially if you can keep it off! A size smaller in pants is proof that you are having much success. I laughed when you said you still look old & fat. Dieting is not going to change your age. But as you get smaller and can exercise more easily, the "fat" look will go away and you'll be more energetic, in less pain, etc. You will FEEL younger! That counts for everything... not too mention, you'll stand to gain a longer, healthier, active life! You are doing GREAT.

I'm assuming since you said that they weren't one of your abstinent foods, that the wings weren't battered and fried or smothered in BBQ sauce. Baked chicken is a healthy source of protien. Four wings chicken wings are 392 calories. That is not enough calories for a whole day.
