For me, the key to success is ending the day with a significant calorie deficit. When I say significant, I mean over 500 calories each day. For once, I wasn't really worried about my weigh in today, mainly because I finally hit the point in my journey where I am able to react to the changes it is going through. Today, I went out on a limb and even purchased a one piece bathing suit (I usually purchase separates and pair them together, so I have a tankini and a skirt (one that goes down mid-thigh, but I figured it was time for a change) to wear in a couple of weeks.
This week I am able to put another loss in the books, a loss of 1.4 pounds. Even if I didn't lose anything this week I would have gained more than weight, I would have gained a new sense of who I was becoming and that means more to me than any number that I may or may not see on the scale.
Congrats on losing another 1.4 pounds and I love how you're not letting the scale rule you... that's awesome. Also, I will definitely post a review of the book 'Wheat Belly' as soon as I finish reading it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachael, I definitely look forward to hearing your thoughts on the book!
