I haven’t decided yet. I’m focusing on getting to where I feel really good. I have a number in mind that I was before kids, but even if I can get to where I am physically active, running every day, and doing yoga. Where I feel strong and lean, then I am ok being a little above that weight. It’s not just a number it’s more how I feel. I want to be able to wear high heels. No back pain and hip pain. Run comfortably a few miles. Shrink my stomach. Feel strong. Sustain the weight in a manageable maintenance mode that feels good! For a BMI reference my goal is a 21.6. Right in the middle of the “healthy range”.
Great mindset Christina! I’m struggle with focusing in a number that’s at the bottom of my range and I forget that a number is not the be all end all. Need to keep all of what you said in mind!
Peel apple, cut with an apple slicer, spray with avocado oil spray, sprinkle with cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice, air fry 350 for 10 minutes (5 minutes more for crispier apples). I made Kodiak protein oatmeal with water in the microwave for 2 minutes.
It’s going slow this week. Down .9, keep telling myself just 2lbs at a time. I got into the habit of eating popcorn and chocolate with my daughter at night while watching tv shows together. I need to get back to dinner and done. What tips and tricks do you use to be dinner and done?
I am seeing start with fluids; like tea, water, non caffeine soda to curb cravings. If I do have a treat make it light like fruit, veggie, or chew gum. I will have to experiment with what works for me. Thanks team for sharing!! :muscle:
Made a short list of recipes that are working for me lately, and I'd love to hear yours, too!
