When it's April 17th and I'm forcing myself to write my March results...you know it's nothing I'm excited about.
Frankly it's less March that I'm apathetic over, it's April. April has been one giant challenge every single day and I'll go into that more in the April Results post.
Back on track with this post:
April brought a nice loss of 4.2 pounds and makes 17.8 pounds lost since January 1, 2017.
So what's wrong with that? Nothing really. It's the day to day "in my own head" stuff that gets in the way. I've been in this same 10 pound range since JANUARY. Granted, January was a nice loss. Too nice possibly? It set my expectations pretty high. I can stick with the plan as long as I'm getting the results I want consistently with the plan. My plan stalled, I got frustrated and although I'm not "off the wagon" I certainly am distracted.
March started with "just this weekend" mindsets of eating which were carb-loaded. I would get right back to low carb on Monday but then I would wander off again Saturday and Sunday. I know this is not the path to success with this way of eating. But it made me feel like the non-weight loss of the 5 "good" days was justified because I treated myself on the weekends.
By the end of March I got focused. I was .7 pounds away from breaking through my 10 pound range. Then there was April...
To be continued.
