I just did my last weigh in for the year. Is off my goal by .2 pounds. In the past i would feel defeated even by a small amount but this time just feels different. I had weight gain from wife’s third pregnancy because if she was going to enjoy her last one so was i. The problem was that I Rollercoastered even higher. I never thought I’d break 200 I never thought I’d go even higher than that. I never ever thought i would legit be mistaken for my dad when he eating ice cream out of the carton every night. Work was stressful, baby and kids were stressful, it was rough.
After being to busy for breakfast I accidentally found this sub. You all are inspiring people. Truely don’t forget that. My main take away is that you set your own rules with food. I stop around 8pm and eat after 1230. I no longer have to track and micro manage my intake. It just feels relaxed and every week I lose about a half to a full pound. If I slip up it doesn’t feel that a complete failure. I eat healthier by default. I eat regular portions and snacks. I exercise just by having kids. Wife is giving more compliments.
I started at 205, I’m at 190.2,I’m heading to sub 180. This goal feels reachable and not insurmountable.
Thank you. Only the best for everyone in 2022.
Hey now - .2 of a pound is literally a shade over 3 ounces per The Google.
That’s half a glass of water from the sink! I mean, to be all gross but forreal, that’s basically a good pee in the morning!
You’ve done well, definitely be proud of yourself!
