    What I do for smaller portions is use a dessert plate instead od a dinner plate. Drinking water before youe meal can also help keep portions down as you will feel fyller sooner in your meal. I eat much more than 1200 calories so I have several small meals in the day and it helps with snacking. I usually have breakfast, midmorning snack, lunch, afternoon snack, dinner, and evening snack. Snacks are either protein shake, protein bars, or fruits which I keep handy at all times if my sweet tooth is particilulary active. Hope this helps.

    I'm in another group, but would also like the monthly accountability here...

    Name: b3achy / beachy
    Age: 51
    Height: 5'3"

    Starting Weight May 29th: 147.2 (but was 146.2 on 5/27, the week before 3 June)
    Goal Weight July 1st: 140

    Weigh In Week (I weigh in for record on Fridays, so I adjusted the days for Friday weigh ins)

    Total LBS lost this month:

    Weekly Goals:
    • Cardio at least 4 times a week (SUP twice; Walking or Gazelle twice)
    • Strength training 1-2 times a week
    • Kettlebell 2 times a week
    • Planking challenge daily
    • Eat within my macro ratios
    • Drink 8-10 glasses of water / day
    • 7-9 hours of sleep per night
    Struggles:
    • Still working on eating within my macro ratios. Have been doing pretty good at eating within my calorie goals, but the macro ratios are still challenging to me.
    • Having a challenging time making time for the strength training and kettlebell.
    • Biggest struggle is hormones ~~ makes it hard to get good sleep and not binge eat
    • Controlling calories on weekend since I'm usually eating out more and can't measure my foods; that's part of the reason why I weigh in on Fridays before the weekend temptations.
    Successes:
    • Doing pretty good with eating within my calorie goals despite hormones.
    • Logging my eating and activity has made me more pro active in getting cardio exercise done, even when not feeling good. (I usually want those extra calories)
    • Tracking calories seems to have me starting to drop pounds each week, and be more conscious of what I'm putting in my mouth. I've only been doing this for two weeks, and have seen positive movement.
    • Using my tape measure keeps me encouraged even when the scale doesn't move (or moves in the wrong direction).

    I think 10 lbs is realistic especially as we have 5 weeks this month. That's 2 lbs a week. I've been on this for 5 months and have lost 50 lbs total which averages out to 10 lbs a month. Totally realistic and doable!

    Have you tried having a healthy snack before tour class and having your premade meal ready for when you get home? Also there are many healthy crockpot recipes on skinnytaste.com that can be prepped that morning do you get home to a delish dinner. Hope it helps. X
