So less than two weeks ago I was weighed in the doctors office at 190, the nurse told me 190, I remember vividly. I go in today and it's 180. Mistake? Well, it is possible I lost 10 LBS. I had a health issue and I didn't feel good at all. So I cut out beer, potato chips, and popcorn. I still drink one soda a day.
I began drinking a lot of water. I still do. I sure haven't exercised anymore than I usually do, which is modest. So I asked what a good weight for me would be, the doctor told me in the 170's. So I'm thinking I only have to lose 5 more LBS. Yeah I know, easier said than done.
I fear soon will begin the slippery slope towards all my bad eating and drinking habits. It hasn't happened yet. Usually mid morning I will now eat a small snack, not junk food, but something I will cook in the microwave. That has taken place of the junk food binge I was on.
I am not sure I really have a question. Just felt like putting some of my thoughts down, and if someone has anything to add , I am still in the experimentation stage myself, so feel free to chime in . I know losing weight is hard, and that's why I wanted to get some thoughts of others.
