I posted about a week ago asking for advice on whether to start CICO or not, because I was worried about it maybe being bad for my mental health. After reading the replies, I decided to give it a shot and I’m so glad I did; I’m really enjoying it! I actually look forward to weighing out all the bits in my meals and seeing how many calories my regular meals are.
I’ve lost 0.2lbs every day since starting which for me is amazing, because my weight loss is usually much faster & much more yo-yo-y which isn’t good. I’m also amazed because I’m not even restricting calories yet, I’m just counting them. I’m actually still eating loads considering I just sit all day haha. I think it’s helped because if I start to binge, I still log it, and that helps me be way more realistic and see that the food I’ve eaten can still fit into a normal day’s calories and I don’t need to fly off the handle and eat 15 packets of crisps just because I’ve already eaten 4 and the day isn’t ruined.
Anyway, I’m aware that I’m not even a week in and that the novelty will probably wear off and I’ll come across some hiccups in the journey, but I’m just very glad I’ve started and am very optimistic so I wanted to thank everyone who gave me advice and encouraged me to start!
