Good job

Maintaining is the difficult part, so great job!

I have been maintaining for about 3 months now. In my opinion, maintaining is easier than losing weight. You get to eat more when maintaining, and treat yourself more often. I don’t feel like I have to weigh myself every day anymore. I don’t feel discouraged if the number on the scale is 0.3 pounds higher than it was yesterday. I indulged myself quite a bit 4th of July week and didn’t gain a pound. I’ve felt much more free when maintaining than when trying to lose weight.

In my opinion, it is easier to lose weight simply eating vegetables, lean meats, drinking water, and no salt or sugars. I also try to eat as much unprocessed as I can. The more things I cook at home, the better. Then, I know exactly what it’s going into each meal. Problem is that I eat out too much, and most of that food is not good for you.

Scratch cooking is the way to go.

[LouderVol]

194.6, another pound gone.

195.4 +.8. Not really being able to run for two weeks sucks.

 

[KoachKrab127]

148.1

A half pound higher than last week. Not worried about it, probably just water weight. As long as this doesn't start trending for several weeks in a row.
