Weight loss journey: skills and practices
Here are some of the important life skills and practices that I have learned in my weight loss journey.
1. Logging and measuring everything, at least while I’m making changes.
2. Really listening to my body to know when I’m hungry or satisfied.
3. Being aware of nutrient balance (fat/carbs/protein)
4. Experimenting, pushing the limits for 4-week intervals in the early game.
5. Being honest with myself about what plans will be sustainable over the long term (rest of my life) and rejecting anything that still requires lots of motivation after the first 4 weeks.
I think I do 1 and 2 every day, many times a day, and I do 3,4,5 once a week - weekly check-ins are important to my plan.
