So last week I had a pretty major setback. I dunno if it was water weight or not, I know I made some mistakes in my diet, but I came up 203. Naturally, I was discouraged, but I quickly turned it into resolve. I was very strict in my calorie intake and exercise, eating at a deficit (but not starving myself) and cardio for an hour every day. I also didn't drink all week so that cut my calories even further.
It paid off. This week, I came up 196.2lbs. That's a big deal in two ways; one, I just lost seven pounds in one week. That's of course a pound a day, and I don't remember making that kinda progress in one week since I was still over 300lbs. The second way it's a big deal is that I've just passed another milestone. When I started this journey I was 347lbs, so now with me at 196 I've just passed the 150 mark, which I've had my eye on for some time.
I guess my body learned a lesson this week, and that's "Do not fuck with me. I'm doing this."
