geng shi Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Holiday weekends (like July 4th) mean trips to the lake in my family. This also means eating really poorly for four days - fast food while driving, pizza, hot dogs, big breakfasts, constant desserts. Since I'm just getting started on my weight loss quest, I told myself I could eat whatever I wanted this past weekend as long as I kept to my three goals: 1. Move at least a mile a day 2. Drink 64 oz of water a day 3. Nothing to eat after 8 PM So I did. I ate like I always do (and enjoyed every bit of it), but kept to the rules. This morning, I stepped on the scale, ready to pay the piper for a weekend of indulgence, only to find I lost .2 lbs over the weekend! It's not much, but compared to the 2-3 lb gain I often experience , it's enormous. More than the weight loss, it's great encouragement to see that these little changes can actually produce meaningful impact. Onward! 5 Quote Link to comment
Elastigirl Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Wow that awesome. Great job, and a good reminder that we don't have to make big changes to make a difference. 2 Quote Wisdom 22.5 Dexterity 13 Charisma 15 Strength 21 Constitution-13 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind' Luke 10; 27 Link to comment
