Ok, I know I'm probably getting upset a bit prematurely, maybe I'm just having a bad day.
Almost a month ago I decided to make a real effort to sort out my weight and overhaul my lifestyle. I joined a gym that does a lot of martial arts, which I've always been interested in, and have been going about 4 times a week. I've also started a new job where I'm doing full 9hr shifts on my feet with a lot of heavy lifting walking about.
I haven't adjusted what I eat that much because I really really hate counting calories and having to calculate everything I put in my mouth, I find it exhausting and it really ruins my enjoyment of food.
I don't eat a lot of unhealthy foods anyway but my portion sizes can be on the large side so I've made a conscious effort to reduce the amount I eat and I thought I'd been doing well.
All this, and I haven't lost a single ounce, in fact it appears I've put on about half a kilo. What am I doing wrong!
I'm not going to give up and I know that it's a short time period to see any major changes but nearly a month and not a single pound lost? Just very upsetting that all my sweat and hard work has not made a bit of difference :(
