Sooo today was easy compared to yesterday, feel like I lost control a little more than I maybe should have done, but overall for me I'm doing well :smile: 900g gone already, although it will have gone up after today as usual :')
Will try to fit in some exercise on Thursday, but we'll see how it goes :smile:

I wouldn't weigh yourself every day if I were you. You suffer from a lot of fluctuations in weight loss daily and you might find it demotivating. e.g. I can put on something like 5lbs throughout a day from all the water and food I've introduced to my system; only for it to be gone the next morning. :tongue:

I agree, however I need the motivation of knowing I can't hide and let myself go if I see my weight everyday, I'm fully aware of fluctuations and they don't really affect me :smile:

That's a really healthy way to look at it. I'm glad your self-esteem's strong enough for that! :smile:

Haha thanks! Especially on non fasting days - I expect it to shoot up again so it doesn't surprise me :smile:

Yep, today was hard again :frown: fasting days are so difficult to adjust to when you haven't done it for ages :frown:
Another thing I find is when I don't have breakfast I don't really feel hungry the rest of the day, probably because my body 'expects' no food before dinner. However recently I have had to have breakfast, because I'm taking iron tablets (slightly deficient after blood donation) and those need to be taken twice with food, so a small breakfast is unavoidable :frown: which is making it harder, but I'm sticking with it :smile:

Sooo I kinda had a mini binge yesterday and paid for it, now 600g lighter :frown: however it isn't too depressing, in fact it's encouraging because now I'll remember how I felt, and it'll hopefully stop me doing this in the future :smile:
Instead of panicking and not eating, I'll just have some good cardio this evening to work it all off :smile:

Don't forget water and plenty of it. You won't believe how often the body confuses cravings/hunger with thirst.

Tracked my calories for today and I was right on track even though I feel like I've eaten loads! Yaay! :smile:

Been getting super motivated for weight loss - hopefully it'll keep at this level for a bit anyway - love feeling this great about the healthy changes I'm making!

My favourite workout atm:

So today I heard off a friend about what a girl has been saying about me... things like "her fat ass could kill me" and it's boosted my motivation even more!

So I reached my first milestone - have a healthy BMI! Now I'm at a weight of 71.8kg, and my BMI is 24.8.

Didn't think that seeing 'normal BMI' on my weight tracker app would make me so happy :smile:

Haven't posted in aaages but for some reason my weight loss has been... non existent this week so far :frown:
As I know from experience this may just be one of those weeks, and it should be back to normal next week - I hope so anyway!

Should really update this more often! But basically, weighed myself and I was 71.4kg on Monday woop woop, then mu scales broke :frown:
So I only weighed myself again this morning, there days later (two of those fasting) and I have stayed at the same weight :frown:
The main thing I try to focus on is not getting demotivated when this happens, and to keep trying :smile: the numbers will go down eventually :wink:

first you have to be conscious everyday what you put in your body.you should cut down on sugars and then start on a training regiment.do what you enjoy doing.but at first start off slowly like walking around your neighborhood.it has to be something that's not going to frustrate you because it is too easy quit.stop drinking all soda especially diet soda with caramel flavoring.good luck my friend
