Got a holiday booked for the beginning of August, think it's actually 11 weeks away but 10 seems a nice round number for a challenge.
My head keeps saying, just 2lbs a week you can lose that no problem. That would be 20lbs. BUT I don't seem able to do it. I try week after week. I lose 2 or 3 pounds and it goes back on at the weekend. I don't feel that I go crazy at the weekend. Isn't it something like you need to consume 3500 extra calories to put a pound on! I must really inhale those calories at the weekend.
So I am going to do the following for the next 10 weeks...
Track everything
Keep carbs low
Aim for calorie deficit of 300 minimum a day but hope for 500 a day
Drink 1.5 litres a day
Try and convince my head that I am on a weight loss injection and appetite less
I have an injured leg so can't batter the exercise but aiming for minimum 6000 steps a day.
Cut out all nighttime sofa snacking
Anything else I could be doing/watching?
I am very aware that I have so much diet info spinning round my head I don't know if I am coming or going.
Anyone had a really good 10 week success story to motivate me with?
