Well, I tried to do the hardest food plan on the FitBit app, and failed. It was a 1000 calorie deficit. I knew it would be challenging, it is called the most DIFFICULT plan, so....
But right now, at this point in my journey, I'm not ready for it. So I went back down to the "kinda-difficult" one (which is to lose 1.5lbs a week).
Everyday I was slightly above my calorie limit, and instead of feeling like I failed daily, I decided to just change the plan, and aim to stick to it. It's all a mind-set really.
But I am finding it being winter, this is more difficult than it was in the warmer weather. I am not craving raw carrots and water like I did when it was warmer. I am sure this is all just something I need to get myself used to. Instead of indulging on salty carb snacks (because chips and crackers are what I crave), I just need to train my body to want good-for-me snacks.
The good news is, I dropped 1.5lbs this week. As long as the number keeps going down, I'm satisfied. And it is motivation for me to keep going and keep doing better each day.
