Week 8
Plopped out of bed and quickly did my morning routine before I weighing myself. (I always do this so I get consistent numbers - otherwise I'm all over the place)
Stepped on the scale and..... (drum role please)
241 Pounds! Hey maybe I'll get into the 230's by next week!
This has really been a unique experience for me as I have never been able to lose more than 10 pounds EVER!
I want to be careful how I use this statement because people normally roll their eyes at it or think it's misleading: The greatest part of all of it is that I've never really felt like I was hungry. It's the truth I promise! That doesn't mean I never had to deny myself of excessive snacking or 1000 calorie pieces of cake... I have, but when it comes to dinner I've been able to eat pretty much whatever the heck I feel like eating.
How?
Well if you've been reading my steps and tips, then hopefully you know how, but basically I eat a measured breakfast (usually around 200 calories), a modest lunch (around 4-500 calories), and then have a few snacks during the day before I get to dinner. By the time I get to dinner I usually have over 1000 calories to eat! If you've made dinner yourself and know how many calories are in it, then you know that that is a LOT of food!
The trend for me personally has been to eat a big dinner and then feel full enough that I don't need to excessively snack later on. Maybe this will help you, but just find whatever works for you to not feel hungry. That's the key.
230's here I come!
My goal by Thanksgiving? (break into the 220's!)
