hi everyone
I started my journey to losing 1st by Christmas around 3 weeks ago. Before that , my weight loss had plateaued and I’d actually gained weight whilst on Wegovy. I’ve since switched to Mounjaro but made a huge effort to change my way so this can be sustainable.
With these changes , those around me feel what I call lifestyle changes , are disordered. I’d love to know what others think?
some examples:
I am not counting calories but I rotate the same healthy meals.
I only drink black coffee and herbal tea instead of my lattes with all kinds of syrup.
I don’t always have 3 meals a day - sometimes 2 .
I have cut down on snacking and when I do , it’s on fruit.
I won’t go to bed unless I’ve hit 10k steps minimum.
Drink a glass of water before food.
Weigh myself weekly
sometimes I’ll jog on the spot whilst I wait for the microwave to stop or go for a walk instead of eat at every lunch break.
Yogurt bowls with fruit syrup is like dessert to me . If I have a huge sugar craving , I’ll crumble one of those mini packs 100kcal packs of biscuits on top of the yogurt and fruit.
I bring my own lunch to work - I meal prep at the same time that I make dinner so I’m not snacking on things as I prep.
