Halfway, and what a journey! 105 days logged in today - good and steady weight loss :)

My HABITS have changed, as have my tastebuds. Junk food doesn't satisfy me the way it used to. I cook nearly every day. I find it easier to recover from slip ups. I have come SO far!

Okay, so I meant to post this on the day I reached halfway (13th June), but I didn't get around to it. After I reached halfway and decided to have a 'celebratory binge', I was bloated, uncomfortable and didn't lose anymore. I put on water weight because of the binge, then lost it but didn't lose anymore. Throughout this week, I ate WAY too much rubbish and binged twice more.

But I'm back to normal now, and, after dropping my calories to 1450, I've lost 1.8lbs this morning!

I've lost 25.8lbs so far, and I am seriously so happy about that, I could cry. I am PROUD. Proud as HELL of what I've achieved. Another 22.2lbs to goal :)


Starting statistics; (13.3.12)

196lbs

40 / 36 / 47

5"5

Clothes size (UK); 18


Current statistics (24.6.12);

170.2lbs.

36 / 29 / 44

Clothes size; 14

Waist to hip ratio; 0.66.

    Good Job! Bet you feel more energectic too!
    Hope you don't mind me giving you a tip:
    To help with you binge eating, try what I do. I have 1 day a week cheat day, but plan it on the day you know you are gonna workout hard. So it is basically "calorie in, calorie out", Trust me.
    This way you will not feel deprived. :happy:

    Keep up the good work.
    You can friend me if you want.
  • Looking really good!

    Thank you! I am very thankful for that. I hated my belly so much before - I looked pregnant, and I lost my waist. I have definitely lost the most inches off of my waist - from 36" to 29"! This morning, it was 28.5", but I give it a few days to make sure before I note it down.

    You're doing so well! Keep on going :)
