I’m not done yet, I’ve decided to go for a bit more, but I’m so excited! I woke up this morning and weighed and it was a perfect 135.0 lb.
On top of that, I shared my progress with my partner! He said he’d noticed the weight loss, that I don’t snack as much or go as crazy with the amount I put on my plate (ngl, I went HARD).
Some wonderful changes I’ve noticed not related to appearance:
-
My calorie limit feels like MORE than enough for me now. I can reach my ~110 g of protein/day goal, fit in fruits and veggies and have room to enjoy some less nutritious foods if I’m craving it.
-
I feel lighter and happier.
-
I’ve started to see food as less of a comfort/stress-relieving tool and more of fuel (that can also be delicious) that my body needs to recover from my training and to function optimally.
-
I’ve become more mindful of what I choose to eat. When I first felt limited by calories, I knew I needed to spend them on fruits and veggies and protein, rather than high calorie snacks. I tell myself if I’m not hungry enough to go for a piece of fruit or veggie first, then I’m not hungry enough for chips either.
-
I’ve become so much more forgiving of myself. The harder I was on myself, the worse I’d rebound later. Even if I go over one day, I can make up for it the next.
-
I’m starting to trust myself more. I know I’ll have good and bad days, but the progress I’ve made has helped me learn that I AM capable of change, regardless of what I’m going through.
Other Bonuses: I can see muscle definition better in my legs and a peek of my abs (I’ve always worked out consistently but because of how much I’d eat, my work was a bit hidden LOL). Another bonus: my partner has noticed 😂😁
