Day one was yesterday. My goal is 1200 calories 8:16, high protein, low carb. I was hungry most of the afternoon. My week goal is two days (Tuesday/Thursday) at 500 calories, 8:16, high protein, low carb. I aim for 60 minutes of exercise each day. Love the decluttered and basic cleaning challenge - it is super helpful.
My family, self include, is sick. I was able to stick pretty well to the food plan but I have not yet gotten the exercise in. Over the weekend, I was not following a good plan, but I walked over 30 minutes each day. The rains and a busy work/home schedule (sick people) has deterred that a bit.
In November, last time I was actively trying to lose weight, I just did no calorie count, 8:16, 5 days and 2 days at the 500 calories, 8:16, high protein, low carb. I lost 10 pounds and kept it off. It was fast and easy. My husband was recommended in go back to that plan since it worked and I was hungry yesterday. The reason I am not a fan of that plan is because I would eat a ton of calories in a huge breakfast and then I had to force myself to eat the rest of the day and I was most likey well over 1200 calories. This app recommends something like 1900 calories so I am just using old knowledge that may be wrong now. Anyway - here is to day 2, 500 calorie day and just doing it!
OMG - I will share this, my food plan had salmon lunch with a salad. I am not a huge fish fan (shrimp and tuna is about it) but I do try to eat fish and usually I can eat salmon. But yesterday was a challenge to say the least. It was just too fatty and hard to eat - I was super thankful for the Italian dressing in my salad to help cut the fat taste. Not looking forward to having it again tomorrow but it is what it is. I will get creative with some other taste to add to it or just douse it in lemon juice! =p
