I want to lose a stone. Last year I lost 20lbs but went about it the wrong way. Practically starved myself on 800 calories a day for 2 months and then inevitably gained it all back over the next few months as I didn’t work on my relationship with food. I suffer with emotional and binge eating. I haven’t weighed myself I think I am just going to go off the way my clothes fit. There’s a pair of jeans I want to wear again and putting them on I would say a stone loss would do it.
Have managed to go a week without bingeing now but I ended the week on maintenance so no losses. I do 20,000 steps a day so it may have pushed me into a small deficit. Idk. I would like to lose this by Christmas but it’s hard.
does anyone else sometimes think duck it I’ll just cut calories really low and get the weight off as quick as possible? I know it’s a bad mindset to have as it’s what I did last year. It’s just always in my head. It feels like I don’t have the willpower to do it slow
I am controlling my binge eating by sticking to low carb (50-100gr carbs per day).
First week was challenging, now its easier...
Good luck!
