Gotta say, BIG pat on the back for me and a “Well done!”to myself so far for this amazing effort. And I can say that with confidence because it is a great effort so far. It’s comforting to know that I am doing something right - even though I keep thinking about macros and “should I eat this?” or “can I eat that?” and I am STILL losing weight for now.
I realise in the early stages it can be like this for a lot of people and then in a few weeks/months comes the dreaded “plateau” and no weight gets lost for a while. I had that when I did slim fast MANY years ago - 8 weeks and no weight loss then it just started coming off again. Although it felt like I lost nothing at first, you definitely feel *something* changing in your body - the composition of it for example - love handles started to go, my stomach went a bit flatter.... things like that. No weight loss, but you still feel good somehow.
I really hope I can get under 200lbs before the end of the year as that would be amazeballs. There are 26 weeks left until the end of the year - so that works out at around 2.5lbs per week - which should be doable.
Only thing I know for sure is that once all this weight comes off - it is NEVER EVER EVER going back on. That is something I will guarantee myself for the rest of my natural life. 35 years of gluttony and greediness is coming to an end - slimmer, fitter and healthier me on the way. This is the year for me to do this. I am 5 months late in starting, but I mean that the timeframe of 1 year is going to be mine to conquer. I have to average 2.5lbs per week to get to my goal weight. Lets see how it goes and just take it from there......
