Checking In
I am proud to report that I have been mostly faithful to my diet and exercise program and have lost 78.5 lbs as of this morning.
I can’t say I have been perfect, but I am learning that the 80/20 rule is a really important one to allow yourself to have some “food fun” once in awhile. It has really helped me to see that I don’t have to be perfect and I can still see great results.
Now, of course, I am going to throw in there that I am on day 6 of a streak, which is something I learned from SparkPeople. I chose a 30 day streak to stay within my prescribed calorie range. So far, it is really going well and I feel almost empowered by it. I feel like if I can control my eating for 30 days through a bbq, camping and probably a couple of other unplanned events, then I know my results will really follow.
