Hi guys, welcome to another of my blog posts! Today I want to talk about how fast the weight loss is. I'm sure I'm not the only one who decides to start the journey and can't wait for the results, for that finish line. But what my experiences with IG weight loss journey people taught me is that it is very individual process.
I'd definitely love to just one day go to sleep and the next day be magicly skinny and fit. Well... that doesn't happen. Ever. It sucks. It's a long process and because of it I gave up many times before.
I'm a scale person. I love weigh in myself. Last year it went to my head a lot, I became obsessed with the number. I weighed in myself multiple times a day and I was stressed to see the weight going up. Of course I knew it was natural, I'm drinking tons of water every day and eating my meals. But the mind has it's own mind, I guess, lol.
Now I'm weighing in myself every morning when I wake up. I know it's still too much, but it is what suits my journey. So far I'm at the end of day 3 out of many, many more. I'm still strong, feeling great and the scale rewards me so far. But I definitely know the weight loss will slow down, it's only natural, first the extra water in my body goes out quickly but later it's gonna be the fat and it sticks like crazy. I would love for the drops to continue going like now, like 2 or 3 pounds a day. Even 1 pound a day would be awesome! But I have to be prepared to see the same number day after day. It's gonna happen. I know it and I can only hope it won't get my focus and motivation off.
But still I have to knock on wood; my weight loss went pretty well last year. I was able to lose at least 2 pounds a week which is amazing and I know from other IG accounds that it's not easy at all to have this loss every single week. I want to say everyone who's trying so hard and working their butts of, but the results aren't as great as they should be: Don't give up! The scale will move again and the hard work will definitely be worth it!
I hope that everyone of you will do your best and the pounds will just dropping off your bodies! I hope the same thing will happen to me. Long year is ahead of us. I still think it will be the best one yet!
Keep being strong!
