So it has now officially been one month since I started this new journey. Happy to report I have lost 12 pounds. Most of those pounds were in the first week thanks to the Dr. Oz 3-day cleanse, but I am stoked that I didn't gain any of that water weight back and continued in the right direction. I am not following any kind of specific plan, but I am definitely trying my best to stick to 1250 cal per day and making sure I log in a food diary everyday (usually after every meal). I am currently using My Fitness Pal and I love it!
A few things I would like to focus on this month are eating out less and drinking more water. If I do these two things, I am confident February will be just as, if not more, successful as January. This includes packing my lunch, which I always seem to forget!
One thing I am proud of is my decision making this month. While I might have had a few minor slip ups, no major binging or fast food runs. And I never let one "bad" meal mess me up for the entire day, which is usually very hard to do. Although I have still eaten out a lot, I always did my best to choose the healthier options versus my favorites. I am also proud of the fact that I have still been eating lots of fruits and vegetables Eating these as snacks versus other processed options really does make you feel so much better!
Again, would I love to lose 40 lbs by May 2nd?? Of course! But if I don't, I will not be disappointed as long as I did my best.
