Figured I’d offer an update. Things are going well, slow and steady, I knew this would be a long haul and that it wouldn’t be easy but I also didn’t want to completely change my lifestyle or starve. So slow and steady, pounds are melting off.
Here are some quick takeaways:
- Not eating after 7 PM
- Smaller snacks – not grabbing an open bag of chips, etc.
- Low calorie snacks – gello, pudding, etc.
- Cutting down carbs – don’t finish fries, rice
- Avoid breads – stopped ordering buns
And the most important piece: when calorie counting, get something that I can nuke in my evening exercise (which is roughly 600 calories)
