For the month of May, I decided to conduct a small experiement. Well, "No Weigh May" is over and I am quite pleased with myself. This past month was about balance between watching my health and living my life. The goal was to just eat and enjoy life without tracking my food, without tracking my weight, without worrying about every gram of anything. I have been eating this way for 15 months and I should know instinctively what I can and cannot manage. I will admit to cheating a little bit and jumping on the scale a couple of times, but I did not let the results alter my day. This was a challenge month because in this month, my son, my brother, and my mother all had birthdays. But I survived, and even enjoyed myself. So the results:
April 30, 2019 - Weight 151.6
June 03, 2019 - Weight 152.4
Yes, there is a tiny upward tic, but I know from 15-months worth of tracking that this amount is completely insignificant and I can make it go away in 24 hours. I still want to lose 5-10 more lbs (2-4kg), but I'm in no hurry and I'm fine with hanging out here at around 150 (68kg) and working on my tone while my skin catches up 🤣.
In short, I have basically arrived at my destination. I'm sight-seeing right now and learning to live in my new environment--one that contains loads of nice small clothes for me to wear! Over time, I expect to divorce myself from my scale forever. It was just a tool and it's usefulness is waning.
Happy Monday everyone!
Better life through better food...
