Aiming to get to a healthy weight!
Currently I am 200 pounds at 5'7. I want to get to 150-160. I have lost weight before using a calorie deficit and cardio/walking mainly. This time around I've picked up running and want to make it apart of my lifestyle.
I plan to cut out most unnecessary sugars, except for a few here and there that help me keep my appetite at bay (as a binge eater), such as the creamer for my coffee and maybe a latte here and there.
I originally went from 270, to 185, and gained 15 back over the course of about 8 months. This was my fault because I honestly just started over eating again. However I don't feel discouraged, but feel encouraged because I know I can lose the weight and more again because I've done it before.
I've always been overweight, and have never been at a "healthy" weight. I WANT to be a healthy weight, I need it. I need to know what I'll look like and all the other things. I'm going to post here as I progress because I've done this before with a different account that I no longer have access to. I think the community will help me remain motivated.
I would like to set a goal of losing 1-2 pounds a week. This morning I weighed 200.8, and by next Tuesday I would like to be 198.
Anyways, today starts the day of losing 50 pounds! Wish me luck!! 😄
