Yeah, I don't have one of those........yet.
One problem that I discovered with my past weight loss attempts is that they gave you a plan...but didn't teach you anything. Well, Weight Watchers was a little better at that....but in the end.....I didn't learn what I needed to.
So, the first stage of my journey is research. Lots of research. I need to figure out my own road map. I know basic components:
- Eat less
- Eat healthier
- Exercise
But I am not sure what all of those will entail yet. Knowledge is power. And I am not full of knowledge yet. I need to figure out what MY body needs. I don't think a lifestyle change is a "one size fits all" kind of thing. So, that is part one.
Once I figure out what I need, then I will ACT. Now, that isn't to say that nothing will be happening during stage one. During stage one....I will have some mini changes. There are habits that I need to break, and habits I need to form. So the beginning will entail some of those.
Once I ACT, then I need to POWER THROUGH. That is where the real work will take place.
Here we go!!!
In reality we have to consume less calories than we need, But I like to eat so I consume more. Now we could exercise but can't always fit that in. Portion control, not eating after 7? Reduce carbs? There are a lot of things that work. I did get up and nosh last night, But it was on 3 small baby dills, and about 20 pecans. So no smores or sugar cereal or chips. See you are helping me.
