I have been so busy, that I completely forgot to post on Tuesday, which is when I am trying to post now. Okay, so as my title states, yes intermittent fasting does work. It did great this first week for my current weigh-in. I lost 3.9 lbs, I was very happy. I feel I can intermittently fast in the mornings, and then have lunch, and then dinner. Which keeps my calorie intake lower. This is what I will be doing from here on in. I think it was a great success, and I hope on Sunday, I have another successful weigh-in. I am so happy to see the number going down on the scale. So very happy. The intermittent fasting is paying off and is worth it. Now to just continue doing what I am doing. When I fast, by the end of dinner, I am less than 1000 calories, so I need to eat a little more during the day. Because eating more at night is not a Continue Reading
Weigh-in #12 – Not As Much As I Had Hoped!
Even though, it wasn't as much as I had hoped to lose. I still lost weight. My husband thought I was disappointed when I got off the scale. But he completely misunderstood my expression. It is so weird. People all my life have gotten mixed messages from my facial expressions. I don't like that about myself, but it is, what it is. We discussed it and cleared the air, which made me happy. He may have been a bit frustrated about it. But I prefer to clear the air. Now, the weigh-in. I think there may have been a day or two where I may have left things out. So I would blame myself. Even so, I still feel it is a WIN because I am still losing weight, even though it wasn't as much as I would like. I try to average 2 per week, this week was only 1.3 lbs, which is okay. I went from 296.0 to 294.7 lbs. I can't wait to get out of the 290s. Now the Continue Reading
Weigh-in #9 – Better Than Nothing
Per my last post, if you didn't read it. I did backdate it, to stay on track. Today's weigh-in is on schedule, although I am pushing it by posting this on Thursday, as my weigh-in will be on Sunday, but better than being even further behind. Today we had a sweet Italian sausage as part of dinner, that baby is a whopping 290 calories, but it did taste good, and we needed to eat it. Who likes food to go to waste? I don't. And no that is not the reason I am overweight. I didn't watch what I ate, and it just got out of hand. All that doesn't even matter at this point. The point is, I am doing something about it. I lost 1.5 lbs, still a good number to lose considering my calorie intake. I hope the Italian sausage doesn't mess me up on Sunday lol. There will be days, and there have been days. It is not always going to be perfect, but all I Continue Reading
