One month update of my weight loss

so a month ago, i decided that i was done with my weight and decided to do something about it. the main thing that i tried to change was my physical activity and calorie intake.

in short, it was hard. especially changing my diet was the worst. i have a pretty serious problem with food, but i managed to reduce my calorie intake. i was still eating junk food though, which i’m trying to stop now. i was at the doctor’s office today and i’m getting professional help, since my weight started to impact my health. i will be doing checkups with my doctor, so it will definitely be even more motivating.

concerning physical activity, i did pretty good. i’m walking 10k steps regularly, just like i planned and i started swimming as well. i lost 5 kg during this month, but i started gaining it back due to being inactive during last couple of days.

honestly this is not much, but i’m still proud of myself. i started working on my weight loss during a pretty stressful part of my life and i didn’t even expect that i would do anything at all.

one thing that i regret the most, is that i was weighing myself everyday. in the beginning, i started losing weight pretty quickly. eventually that stopped and made me feel very unmotivated to do anything. so if anyone is reading this, how often do you think i should weigh myself? i was thinking about once a week, but i’m not sure.

also, i noticed i’m more resistant and working out became a bit easier, since i found something that i enjoy.

this is a very small progress, but i’m finally starting to work on all this with a doctor.

i’m doing my next checkup in two months, so i’ll most likely update my progress here in two months as well.
