No weight loss this week, but I have lost 2.8lbs for the month of April so far, with 1 week to go. I still am not sure what my set point will be, so this is all just a learning experience for me. I had a check-up with my GP last week and she thought that I should increase my caloric intake to 1800-1900. I have decided not to do that for the moment and stick with 1700-1800. I am going to stay the course for 1 more month. If I stay at 148 then so be it and then I will consider myself as having reached my set point and then start the even harder journey of maintenance.
I never thought that I would be at this point, that it was even possible to take off this amount of weight - almost 90lbs. All I can say for those who like me who have been overweight most of their adult life is that it can be done. You have to start believing in yourself - a gradual process to be sure. You have to have patience, as you didn't put it on in 6 months and you're not going to take it off in 6 months. It has been 2 years this April since I started to visualize, to aspire, to hope that this time I could do it.
Once I started to take off a significant amount of weight, my focus increased and my confidence grew. I didn't really share my weight loss with anyone, sure people noticed but it was something that I was doing for myself, not for anyone else, so it became a private journey for me as really no one could help me. I had to help myself, to discover what was going to work for me, what I was willing to sacrifice to get the weight off. This journey of self-discovery is different for everyone. I hope my ramblings here inspire others that anything is possible if you want it bad enough. I never knew that before.
Happy Monday everyone and have a good week!
