I’ve not really been actively fasting the last month or two but my eating habits have been modified by my previous fasts so do it without thinking a lot of the time.
Anyway I’d just been away on holiday and put away a LOT of alcohol and more carbs than I’d probably consumed this year all together (my stomach did not thank me that’s for sure).
I got back last week and have been eating not great but still with 15+ hours fasting each day. I finally weighed this morning with a view to how I would lose the holiday weight and get back on track and I’m actually 5lbs less than I was before I left, my lowest on my journey and the closest I’ve been to under 300 than in my teens. Just 5lb to go and I’m there - I couldn’t be happier! Think I genuinely might cry the day I see 299.
I’m going to use this post as a reminder when I don’t like the number I see or thinking of giving up next.
This is a reminder to post your victories people no matter how small!!
Answer
Have been avoiding weighing myself bc I knew it would be bad. Too much eating w/out thinking and too much drinking. This morning got on scale and I was 304.5lbs. Wake up call I needed. Finished a 16 hour fast and made healthier eating choices today. Starts with one step at a time. We got this, I need to be patient but am looking forward to being back in the 2’s.
