Time to lose it

Hey, my name is Stephan, I'm turning 35 soon and have not been able to get my weight below 100 kg for as long as i can remember. I'm a bbq addicted foodie which is where i think my main problem lies. Sugary rubs, bbq sauces, breads and other unhealthy sides (did someone say cole slaw) and bacon... god i love bacon.

Seriously though. I have been eating better thanks to this app. Sunday is my cheat day where i hang out with my buddy, light up the smoker, enjoy and watch football. I have lost about 9kg this year so far and am now down to 105kg. I have now reached a plateau which i have been stuck at for about a month. I honestly haven't been all to strict with myself. It was working so far without, but now it's starting to annoy me... so i now plan on being more strict with my caloric intake and logging everything again, not just the days i feel like I've passed my set limit.

Time to go to 99kg and then some!

I would love to have a few more friends here just to keep myself motivated. Getting regular notifications of you doing good will help with that.
Thanks for your support!

    Just a thought, when you mention bacon this thread could take a life of it's own :)

    Eat your bacon, in reasonable amounts. How about making your own rubs and sauces or even trying something new - I used to love BBQ with the tomato/sugar based sauce and then one day I tried a Balsamic Rosemary glaze and that was all she wrote - so easy and yet so decadent! One of the things that I did with foods and sweets was up the quality that sort of forces you to cut the quantity for some things, plus it really makes it a real treat.

    The plateau happens when using the scale, try taking some measurements or even do a little self endurance test. There are times when there are positive changes happening to our bodies that we can't see but they are there so keep up the great work :):):) and keep on smokin.'

    Now I really want some BBQ <3
