So Many Factors Saturday!!🤯

It really is a science, this losing weight journey...and it helps me to stop and realize how many factors I need to consider and then to cut myself some slack😎 Some of these things are basically out of our control (genetics, etc) but there are a few that we can adjust with our nutrition choices and healthful habits.

Sleep directly effects our hormones (we have SOME control over that). Increasing our NEAT calorie burn can make a difference too. I invite you to please take a minute to check out the chart and see which areas you might be able to take better control over this coming week.

In the meantime ~ have a SPLENDID Saturday. Keep smiling, and never give up! You are SO WORTH IT!!

💙✨💙

LP, I think economics applies to most everyone, in the sense that it determines what we can afford to buy with the money we have. Income affects food choices at the grocery store, ability to afford gym memberships, gas $ to get to the store/gym/etc, purchasing of home equipment (food scales, treadmills, bicycles, etc)....

Thank you for your feedback. Today I reached my goal. It was a long arduous journey. I am 106.4 lb to 110 lb at 5.6 at 56 years old. Now comes the second hurdle maintenance. With God's help I will apply methods as i did before.
