Great job keeping up your commitment. ...Heya girly! Great job keeping up your commitment. <br /><br />Can I make a small recommendation? <br /><br />Use your scale and cups as teachers--to teach you proper portion size. Learn to see what a 1/2 cup looks like, or 4 oz. of meat. Then hide them. It's the only way you'll truly learn portion size. I've battled a compulsive "must measure everything" feeling way too many times. It's very easy to become a slave to the scale. <br /><br />Secondly, I would work more in a calorie ballpark, once you learn portions. It's waaay too easy to become an obsessive calorie counter. Believe me, it's not fun. And once you've had a bit of "recasting," by eating whole foods and getting a handle on portions and healthy choices, and just listen to your body, you'll find you naturally create meals that fall perfectly into your calories and (if you track this) macronutrients. <br /><br />Of course it's your plan, these are just things I wish I'd known at the start of my weight loss journey.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04072561525876715920noreply@blogger.com
