Hi friends. F 27, 5’7. Started my weight loss journey in Sept 2024 weighing in at 167lbs. In January I got norovirus so I think this helped with a few lbs and I weighed in at 154lbs (Jan 2025).
Got engaged Feb 15, birthday early March- so between the holidays and early March I was drinking a lot of alcohol and eating whatever with minimal exercise. Somehow- on March 17th when I started a 75day workout plan with my fiancé I weighed in at 156.6lb only gaining 2lbs which was shocking to me.
This is where I get discouraged. I weighed in today on the 4wk mark and have gained, weighing in at 157.8lb. I was hoping it’d be muscle but it’s not as you can see in the images- I have smart scale. I’m discouraged because I’ve been lifting 4 days a week, mainly at 5:30AM which is SO HARD FOR ME and something new i’ve been doing to stay consistent. 20min cardio minimum. In a calorie deficit (which I admit I’ve been guessing with what I’m eating and I know there are days I go over slightly but I try and be aware of the ballpark and not track every single number). 1 active recovery day. No alcohol. No fast food. But…. I had alcohol on my bday (3 glass wine March 25).
Other notes- We had a catering tasting so I ate a ton of pasta and some desserts. And I quit vaping (after 9 years)…. and I’m one week clean. Which has created increased hunger. I’m craving anything but water as i’m not drinking alcohol or smoking anymore and I feel like that’s my vice. I love coke zero. But any other tips for healthy drinks that won’t hurt my journey are accepted.
Anyways- any recommendations for losing this stubborn stomach fat… or any hard truths? I want to finally #LOSEIT now in life more than I ever have. I’m super fitness motivated so i feel like i’m just doing something totally wrong for my body with food and liquid intake. Any advice welcomed. Please be kind.
