Well it’s been 31 days since I started seriously on this journey. I can say I have had some ups and downs. There have been days I wanted to quit, like today. However, I realize that with change there are moments that I want to quit but I don’t have to give into it. It’s really about PUSHING past the feeling and settling into the promise. I promised myself that I would lose weight. I want to be down 100lbs by December 30. So far I’m down 16lbs since November 2014 and down 8 since January 6. I’ve lost 2inches in my chest but nothing in my waist or anywhere else. As a matter of fact I’ve gained in my legs and thighs. Perhaps that’s muscle?? I have no idea but it’s been a month and I’m happy I have not gained. Not bad Sheena, not bad at all.
One thing I run into, eating enough. Some days I have to get fast food just to get my calories in. The healthy food is low in cal and high in fiber which makes me hella full and I can’t eat enough without feeling overly full and meet the cals needed. Perhaps I can find another way to do this. Eating earlier in the day and bringing snacks on the road with me.
I have read that there should be smaller goals set and in order to keep yourself motivated. Here they go:
April 2015: down 18lbs (273)
June (birthday month): down 36lbs (255)
Sept 2015: 52 lbs (239)
Dec 2015: 100lbs (200)
That’s about it. Until next time.
