"So this is emptying out my fridge on a tempting “Cheat Night”. There’s a meal-prep “low fat” lasagna that I put together with a Greek Mediterranean Salad. Wish me luck. It could’ve been a pizza 🍕 "
"Not good - I have put weight on over the last week and so have failed. I commit from 25/01/21 to write and track everything that I eat and drink. I have been advised by my doctor that my blood pressure is too high and I need to loose weight. I have given myself six months to try and loose the weight. I have challenged myself to lose 40-50 lbs."
"Day 21 - A fairly okay week with good progress, I want to continue to stick with it but as with all things it gets harder to say no to the “good” things in life. I think I just need to refocus on what matters. Time, fun, and experiences - not the ice cream that will melt and find its way into my thighs. "
"Ok so I read my devotional that TC I read my prayer book that TC got me and I learned that God is always with us and not be afraid because he will always protect you"
"I lost 1.8lbs this week! It may not be 2lbs like the past 2 weeks but it is still an improvement. The first time weighing myself today it was 160.2lbs.......... I GOT SO SCARED BUT THEN I REALIZED I WAS HOLDING MY PHONE WHILE IT WEIGHED ME. I was like “oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no.. $150” BUT re-weighed then 159.0lbs hehe 😜 "
"Did not work out this week at all. Bad habits were at the maximum. Need to get some cycling and walking done everyday. Figure out how this habit can be stacked. "
"I don't expect myself to lose a pound per week. My current progress has been slow and steady, and I just want to continue on that path.
I have bigger issues with sleep and depression right now. I don't have the energy to dedicate myself to dieting and exercise. This small weight loss commitment is to keep me pointed at my ultimate destination."
"Once again I am just under my next weeks goal already. Let’s see if I can keep on track this week instead of floundering like I did last week. The lower protein higher fat seems to be doing the trick for me and I am nowhere near as hungry and have no sweet tooth craving this. Don’t get me wrong, I could eat anything sweet as always, but I’m not craving it."
"It's hard to keep going. Last week I didn't even check my weight. But it's done,
What I'll do know is go back a on track be it hard or hard it soe nor matter."
"Hello Michelle 💜 I wanna lose all my baby weight because I want to feel good and fit in my pre-pregnancy summer clothes. If I don't get the weight off, I will need to buy new clothes 😑 and feel exhausted all the time 😫 I have another goal here that will help me with this one. I am committed to exercise regularly, to do either yoga or cycling."
"Hi Ryan, not the best week for eating well or exercising. Back is getting better so I am hoping to get my exercise goals completed from today on. Eating is going better and my goal for this week is to trend toward all good quality foods, which I think will get me to my next goal."
"Ok so I read my devotional that TC got me I read my prayer book that TC got me and I read the verses and I learned that where God put you it might seem that it is bad luck and it might seem it is a punishment 💜💙"
"I start tomorrow. I've been lifting consistently since August of 2019, but my weight has been fluctuating constantly. I need to find something that works consistently and I can keep going with it. Let's give this a shot!"
"Not sure what happened, but actually gained..was fasting since Monday, but did eat like crap over the weekend. I have been drinking a lot of water, without salts, so maybe retaining water. I will add Electrolytes to my water and limit it to 2 liters a day. "
"- Zucker: okay außer 1 Tag
- Alk: brav, nur 3 x die Woche
- ZW: kann besser werden, hab dann doch Nüssen und Käse gegessen
- Weizenmehl: gut
- Spaziergänge: gut - müssen länger werden"
"Ok so I read my devotional that TC get me I read my prayer book that TC got me I read my verses and more and I learned God put you in a family that he thought was best for you and he created you to like what you like "
"4 weeks done, down 10.2 lbs.
A bit disappointed tho cause taking progress video/photo, I was hoping to see more difference in my body. If anything, it looks the same to me, if not I gained weight.
Not sure if it's due to lighting (took the photo today at 6am no natural light yet), or the higher waist pants.
Good news tho, I've been working really hard on healing my binge eating. I eat more mindfully now- making sure to eat slower, measuring what I eat (not because I'm limiting myself, but just to have an awareness) and journalling my foods.
My cousin added me to a lowcarb facebook group and I got ideas for rice alternatives. Briefly, I thought I might want to try keto again, but I know restricting my food choices is not good for my mental health as that would vilify certain food groups and me feeling restricted again. Plus I enjoy some carby veggies and our yummy tropical fruits 💜 I think for now I'll just focus on intermittent fasting, mindful eating, and prioritizing whole foods.
I'm in this for the long haul and holistic wellness, not just losing weight. I'm making progress and making changes. It'll pay off as long as I continue down this path."
"My activity level has been above average most days. I have gotten enough sleep. I have drank enough water. I have not over eaten. My calorie intake has not been over what I plan. I have been 100% keto and my blood sugar is fine, there is NO REASON for a gain other than food choice. Have been heavy on the protein, which has caused gluconeogenesis in the past for me - this week I am going to focus on low-normal levels of protein and increase healthy fats. The key to wt loss for me, I think, as I get older with this diabetes, is finding a sweet spot on what my type of foods should be to keep my insulin levels from spiking at all. I am damned I am going to control all this without medication or insulin AND lose weight. I will get there one way or the other, I need to pay better attention and then make the necessary adjustments. "
