On December 6th, my friend took a picture of me and I was absolutely gutted as I thought I was quite fit and didn't realise I'd become that size (by just eating what I want). I'm 5"6. I have dropped from 180lb to 173lb since then by tracking my calories (1200-1500 a day) and being more consistent with exercise.
Anyway, this week I've stalled and maintained. I'm guessing Christmas (Yesterday I was sensible and had 2500 calories - could've been an underestimate though, but definitely no more than 3000 I would say) Last week I went out for a meal and drinks with my new co workers and definitely didn't track then, however did spend a good 3 hours dancing haha. Could these have contributed?
Yeah, they've definitely contributed haven't they. I'm typing this realising what a dingbat I am.
I will keep this post for accountability though, because I am an absolute nightmare for starting a weight loss journey and giving up at the first maintain and saying "I can't lose weight then". I lost a big amount of weight in my 20s, going down to 120s, which is really skinny for my frame, and it was SO easy, could have multiple cheat days a week and it still dropped off. Now I'm in my late 30s, only want to get down to 150, and fff me this shit is tougher.
