Down 5 pounds!

I know this is a tiny amount of weight compared to most of the other victory posts here, but I am just so dang proud of myself!

I've been waffling on starting to lose weight for around a year now, and my weight has slowly crept up during that time. Well, really slowly crept up over the last 3 years or so. Anyways. A week or so ago, I decided once again to start being more conscious of what I eat and maybe stop, yknow, binge eating cookies every evening.

I spoke to my therapist about my issues with weight loss on Monday and he hammered in the fact that I do have control over what I eat and that if I make the choice to binge eat, I should address why I am feeling that urge rather than whether or not the food is worth it. This is proving to be useful for me so far, and I have not binge ate and only ordered food once since Monday!

Beyond just diet stuff, I also started doing the saitama workout in honor of one punch man season 2 airing. 100 squats, pushups, and sit ups, and a 10k run every day. I've scaled it down to half that, but I'm hoping I'll be able to do the full thing by the end of the month. It sucks so far, but I hope that it helps me continue to knock off some weight and get into good exercise habits!

Anyways, that's all for now! I just really wanted to share my 5lb victory because this is more weight than I've lost in a year, and I'm really hoping that I can keep it up! Hope you are all having a lovely day!
