Day 3: Lost some!
Good news: I lost more weight. I am now 171.8lbs (77.9kg).
Bad news: I ate 40.5 points today. Just ate stuff all day long. It’s honestly only about 2025 calories according to my calculations..maybe even less. You see right now I am currently eating around 1100 calories per day. So, yes it’s a huge day for me. However, I also make sure that Fridays are my day where I watch what I eat, but I eat what I want if that makes sense. It’s actually good for me body as well. If you start to get close to your goal weight. Switch up your eating patterns a bit. Tomorrow I’ll eat about 18 points, which is about 900 calories and then bounce back to my normal amount. It just gives the body a bit of a jolt…keeps it thinking
It’s weird, because I have never been this close to my goal weight ever..except when I was getting fat. Usually, in these situations I self-sabotage myself. Meaning, I’ll go and have a horrible week, then try and bounce back for two, then have a great week, lose, and then the cycle continues. NO! I have to stay on track. My goal for my birthday, which is now 2 1/2 weeks away is to be under 170..preferably 168lbs. Honestly if I was under 170 I would cry. That would be awesome. I am so close I can taste it, no pun intended, but I need to be diligent.
Second, who am I if I am not dieting? What will I have to worry about? OMG..my identity is gone. JK. But in all honesty. Anyone who has dieted, seriously, or who has lost a large amount of weight knows that it becomes a real part of who you are and how you define yourself.
My new goal is to become a leader for weight watchers.
WOW! I can’t believe it..it’s pretty awesome!
