Overview

Ok so I'm back at it!  Thank God!  Don't like plataeus, not one bit.  They make me feel very discouraged and depressed, especially at this early stage.  If it had happened later on when I had about 5kg to go....it wouldn't have mattered so much but I just felt awful and started thinking that this was all I was going to lose.  Anyway...on doing research on plataeus and why they happen it was apparante that I needed to shake up my gym routine a bit.  So I upped the kg's and intensified the cardio, I'm seeing my PT this morning to review my program.  He'll probably change the weights and Ab work I presume, which will shake things up a bit. Seems that one's body gets use to the change and uses less calories to do the same actions, so one needs to change the actions so the body had to readjust and work harder - thus burning calories. 

I'm also measuring my calories per week so that my 'cheat days' are accounted for by eating well the rest of the time.  On research on intermittent fasting, I'm shaking that up as well and fasting every second day...so there will be low calories one day, and high the next,  This is suppose to shake up the body as well...famine, abundance, famine, abundance.  Suppose to be healthier and prolong life too ha ha ha.  So I'll live to 100!  LOL  I dunno....it's all experiemental, if there's little or not change then I won't really continue it.  I'm my own guinea pig at this stage as so many different people say so many different things that one gets confused as to what to do when trying to lose weight.

I also look at people who have had weight loss surgery and look at how it's set up for them.  If their stomach is small then they eat small and it helps them lose weight.  One person I know, hardly eats anything and struggles to eat more, and it's falling off her!  And this is all safe to do....you don't starve.  And again when one hits a plateau, time to shake things up a bit, well they can't exactly eat less than they do...so they have to try and eat more = lose more weight.  So I'm trying to follow that as best I can.  Act like I've had WLS - how much would someone with WLS eat at one sitting?  Not much!  Although I've failed a few times...but as long as I try my best then I should be right.  I'm also trying to eat things that are full of nutrition too - right now I'm eating yogurt and muslie...full of protein etc  So yeh...I'm trying to be as healthy as I can about it as well.

Anyway...that's all!  This one was a long overview!  Next week hopefully I'll hit my first goal weight of 75kg...then I'll be pretty close to what I was before I fell preg with Flynn!
