Hi! I've migrated from the other thread too.
Weigh in at 210.8 today. My mini goal right now is to be firmly in the 200s. I was 232 for most of last year. Towards the end of the year, I got down to 224. I got serious when 2016 started. It's a fresh start!
Things that work for me right now:
1. My Daily Habit Tracker. My daily habit tracker is from EliseJoy.com. I fill in the circle for the day if I've eaten healthy balanced meals without going over my calorie limit. I fill it in each morning for the day before, so it's a reminder that I'm doing well and it motivates me for the rest of the day. I also like that I've filled in most of the bubbles. It looks pretty cool, and I am motivated to not "break the chain".
2. I make a huge pot of turkey chili every 8-9 days and split it into 3 tupperware containers, two go in the freezer. This is my breakfast. Easy peasy! It fills me up, it's fast, it's a good start to the day, and if I ever am stuck for a meal, I'll just have chili because it's fast and easy. I find having a good, filling breakfast sets the right tone for the day, and I'm less likely to snack at night if I've started eating as soon as I wake up.
3. I close the kitchen after supper. Wash dishes, clean everything up, and that's it. I'll grab a glass of water but nothing else for the evening. It helps me from snacking at night.
4. 3FC! The daily weigh in's and accountability threads help me stay mindful. This is such a supportive space!
I don't exercise though… :/ I'm a bit lazy right now and am feeling self-conscious because my workout clothes don't fit me anymore.
What works for you?
