Hey everyone, I’m back again 👋🏻
Today is day one... again. Once upon a time, I lost a good deal of weight. My highest ever weight was ~235 pounds and my lowest was somewhere around 160 pounds. I stepped on the scale today at the doctor’s office and I’m starting this journey at 187 pounds.
The first time around, I starting losing weight effortlessly. When people started to notice... I started trying harder. Then, things got unhealthy. While never diagnosed with a eating disorder, I have no doubt in my mind that I had issues with restriction. I don’t want to do that again.
As I’m sure we can all relate to, life got crazy and the started putting the weight back on. I graduated college and started a stressful job and became complacent. 25+ pounds of weight gain later, I’m finding myself ready to lose weight again.
I’ve got the knowledge on healthy eating and plan to use CICO because I know it’s something I can stick to. I’ve downloaded MFP again, and I’m aiming for 1500-1700 calories/day, maybe more depending on my activity. I work as a nurse, so I’m confident I’ll hit my daily step goal. Exercise will be the most difficult to squeeze in, but I’m committed to making small, yet effective changes.
Just wanted to post this to hold myself accountable. I hope to become more active in this sub like I was years ago. I would love any and all advice, encouragement, or words of wisdom.
Thank you!
