Hey all! I'm new here looking to lose the last 10 lbs before summer is officially underway, and thankfully I've already lost ~4 of the 10, which was not easy, but doable with exercise! I'm really happy with my weight and just want to lose a few more lbs before I'm in a bikini all summer. But work just took over my life and I wasn't able to keep exercising so I've been at a plateau for about 3 weeks. My goal is 115 (btw I'm 5'2"
)
I'm switching back to the rule that worked for me before: Just Eat Half.
Because my eating schedule is erratic, and sometimes I'm on the go and other times I have to sit at work all day, I never know if I'll be able to get whole meals or just snack all day. So when I just eat half of whatever I'm eating, I'm able to listen better to my body and hunger cues, enjoy what I like, not feel guilt, and feel alert all day. I love it.
So this journal will be basically about what I eat, my water, my exercise (which WILL start up again in a few days when job ends!), and reaching my little goal.
Here comes summer!
