Challenges are to drink enough water while on this new job. The hours are odd, too, in that I am usually done eating by 7 p.m. and eating again by 8 a.m. That gives me a 12 hour fast in the evening and sleeping hours. I started this due to an extremely elevated blood pressure, mostly stress induced. I thought losing weight would be a bonus and it has been.
So, I drink the water and tell folks that I am and why I am. I work as a receptionist in an Independent Retirement Community. Many of them eat a lot of sodium rich foods and they don't drink enough liquids. We can provide things for them but they choose what they wish to partake of.
I say it is the extra walking that I'm doing, bouncing around from one part of the community to the next, that is responsible for taking off this last two lbs.
I wish you all your best. I don't have much of an online presence as before.
