So here we are a perfectly uneventful week. I must admit that the last two months have been bleh. No considerable weight loss or change even though I’ve been working diligently and eating relatively well. Alas, I might have hit that infamous plateau finally. But I am not ready to give up just yet.
The good news is regardless of whether I lose more weight or not, I have definitely changed my metabolism and I am much healthier now. I take an average of almost 11,000 steps a day from a mere 2,000 before I began this journey. That’s a considerable difference. I stopped eating crappy food like take-out or chocolate (I stopped eating a lot of chocolate, I do still eat some occasionally of course.) I eat salads or veggies daily and fruits, too. I could definitely do better on the food front but this effort overall has been really good for me.
My hope for the next few months is to take it up one more notch to get myself over that plateau. I am already doing a lot exercise-wise and I don’t want to change or add so I will work on the food. Eating healthier and more whole foods. Let’s see if it makes a difference.
and here’s this week’s card:
