One month in and motivation is already waning. Sound like you? Sounds like everyone, right? When all the festivities have died down and the new years resolutioners flock back to their creature comforts…who remains?
This month had its fair share of learning moments and takeaways. Coming back from a 2-week, guilt-free trip at the end of December made me grateful to have the ability to jump back into my 4th weight loss phase. After one week of water bloat and another week of watching what I ate, I started exactly where I had ended before I went on that trip. I felt really confident that not all or any progress had been loss. It’s funny. Even after doing this for quite some time, I still feel that tinge of fear whenever I out the other side of a maintenance mode or go on a vacation. Some habits and thought loops are hard to break.
As I enter February, I am striving to break the 160 lb. mark. I often feel like every 10 lb. mark is where my body fights me the hardest. I felt this when I was breaking the 190, 180, and 170 mark. As my body adapts to a lighter version of myself, I got to remain vigilant about my habits and possibly increase my step goal. Time will tell but the proof is in the data.
Join me and let’s do this together.
