Healthy Weight Loss

Esme nha Maire · 01-13-2018, 03:53 PM

I've just spotted an interesting article on the Science Daily website (a site I'd heartily recommend to anyone interested in getting and maintaining an overview in where we are now on the sciences) regarding what's happening when we gain too much weight and why it's so hard to lose. And why just because I might not LOOK too bad, shape-wise, doesn't mean to say that I am free of potentially serious weight-related problems.

This has re-inviograted my desire to do better with exercise and stop my recent minor spate of comfort over-eating NOW!

One of my goals for 2018 is to lose weight and I'm off to a good start, so far I've lost 8lbs.

This month though I'm aiming for a lower daily carb intake, resolved to make better choices about what type of carbs I eat, I'm not gong to try to put my body into a state of Ketosis, drastically reduce my carbs or anything like that. As long as what I'm doing is working I'm sticking with it. When it stops working then I'll look at making changes. This month I do have a goal to get more exercise in though. Anyhow it just feels really good to have closed out January with weight loss rather weight gain or even just weight maintenance. Hopefully I can keep this trend up in February. Even though I only lost a little bit of weight last month I didn't feel deprived, experience true hunger or struggle with cravings. I hope that proves to be the case this month.

Still plugging away at it. Between February and March I lost another 10lbs. I didn't realize it until today because my weigh ins have been sporadic. Yesterday though I noticed my jeans felt a little loose. This morning I kept having to pull my pajama bottoms up while working around the apartment. So I did a weigh in. It's not a tremendous amount of weight loss but the journey of a thousand miles has to start someplace right? I just keep telling myself as long as I'm losing, not gaining, I'll count it as a success.
