Update: Progress Picture After 3 Weeks (Second Time Around)
I wanted to share a "non scale victory" because I haven't been obsessively weighing myself (like I did in the past). I took this progress picture after 22 days of tracking my calories/foods - trying to stay around 1400 a day, but allowing myself the grace to still go out to eat and enjoy my life.
In the past I used CICO/1200 calories per day, and I lost 30 lbs. However I wasn't using sustainable habits, didn't understand macros, and was hungry all the time. Surprise - I gained it all back :)
This time around I'm trying to focus on eating more protein, vegetables, and building long term lifestyle changes so that I can set myself up for success in my 30s. I'm tracking everything, and trying to be more active. I'm cutting back on drinking, binge eating, and snacking... and it's working! I've learned two major lessons- slow and steady is really the way to go and be kind to yourself.
I wanted to thank this community for their support, and hope I can inspire some out there. I personally visit and lurk the posts once a week when I'm feeling down and reading your stories and changes you've made always inspire me.
