Setting up a thread of my own, so I can stay focus and get motivated from others.

1) watch closely what I eat
2) exercising

    2) .. exercising: 6pm - 7:20pm. The daytime heat was replaced by a cool breeze and it was such a pleasure to jog through the woods.

    Tuesday
    1) an evening stroll for 1 hr
    2) didn't overeat

    Wednesday
    The body weight finally dropped 0.8. What made this difference is chiefly because I did not overeat yesterday.
    Do I have to go some diet like 5:2? It, at the moment, seems not. So do NOT overeat!
    1) a morning walk for 90 min.

    Tuesday
    1) evening sycling 80 min, kettlebell workout 12 min & Jane Fonda 30 min workout
    2) cooked for the whole morning. Never believe yourself in resisting food temptations. You just can't stop eating the food that you cooked :s

    How is it going? I notice a lot of "don't overeat" comments to yourself. Are you logging here?

    Hi AprilKnits. It's going quite well, I'd say, as more than half a kg is definitely gone :D:D
    Yes, 'don't overeat' is a reminder to me as I often don't stop eating untill way too full.
    No, I'm not logging anywhere.

    Friday
    1) evening walk 8000 steps
    2) portion size got off the waggon just a little bit
    Saturday
    1) morning walk 7000 steps
    2) it should be an easy day for food intake because there is not much tempertation. Porridge, soup and easy degisted foods are the key words for today.

    Why don't you log your food?

    I rarely log. Just if I'm losing weight when I don't want to or if I need to lose a couple of pound to get back to maintenance

    I did logging food for a while and learned a lot from doing it. However, my goal is to keep exercising and build a healthy relationship with food, for life.

    Oh my, a kitchen incident? Yikes, hope you're ok. Be extra careful tonight due to not exercising, and keep drinking lots of water if you're not already. Hydration in the winter is just as important. Wait a minute- I saw green grass in a photo above! Are you in CA? Let's all try to guess where Jan2018 lives :)

    Saturday
    1) walked & jogged for 70 min
    2) very proud of myself :) . Had my favourite food but stopped eating when it's enough.
    Don't have any interests in night-time nibbles. Brush teeth after meals and enough is enough.
