I have been on this weight loss journey for about 3 years. I have a another 15 to 20 to go...but I'm currently pretty happy with my slow and steady progress. I have maintained my current weight and to me that's huge.
I wanted to give a list of what I have learned through the years and I want to hear what others have learned.
-
You are not going to die if you miss a meal.
-
Dont snack. It's a waste. Save it for an actual meal.
-
Water. Water. Water. I flavor my water alot but I carry my plastic bottle around with me all the time. I'm usually more thirsty than hungry.
-
Allow cheat days...allow your self to celabrate life.
-
Understanding when I'm full. Full use to mean to me that I had to feel like I couldnt breathe after I was done eating...I had to feel gross and stuffed. Now, I know the exact amount to eat to keep my hunger at bay and now I dont want to feel stuffed....I want to feel satiated.
-
Intuitive eating. Listening to my body. Understanding what a craving is and what hunger is.
7.Cooking at home will not only save you money but really is good for your waist line.
-
Processed anything is not your friend. Whole foods are always the way to go.
-
80/20 rule applies to almost every aspect of life.
-
You're not that hungry if you look in your fridge and you still dont want to eat those baby carrots :)
Please add to my list!
