Finally! A loss. I have feel so good to finally have the scale move downwards. I lost 2.6 pounds this week. What is more important are the changes that I made.
Change number one- I weighed absolutely everything this week. No estimating. Down to the gram.
Change number two- increased my protein intake. I have calculated that I need at least 97 grams of protein. I haven't managed that yet but I do get to around 80 grams. Huge difference from the 40 grams I was averaging.
Change number three (that ended up not changing!)- I thought that my calories were going to go way up. And on some days they were a bit higher however my average ended up being within my regular window of calories!
The biggest surprise was the sugar side of things. I had absolutely no sugar cravings! No desire to snack before bedtime. Both are totally amazing to me as both things have dogged me for years.
I have had a busy week this past week: there was Christmas shopping and gift wrapping, a lovely massage, two yoga classes, a visit with a sick relative in the hospital, and taking delivery of the Christmas turkey!
