I took my progress picture on March 3, mimicking the progress picture I took on February 3. This is such a cool way for me to document and see the changes in my body, and when I feel confident enough to post them here, I will. I lost 8 pounds during the month of February, but weirdly enough, I lost all 8 of those pounds during the first 2.5 weeks of the month. I’ve been seriously plateauing since then, despite my unchanging restrictive habits, which is frustrating.
However, this morning I finally (FINALLY) pushed past the lowest weight I’ve been in over a year and am breaking new ground at 18 pounds down. Let the skies open and the angels sing.
I need to be losing 7-10 pounds a month in order to feel even remotely good about myself for the wedding in June. Time to kick it up a notch. I’m dropping my caloric intake to 750 calories and upping my exercise by adding the personal trainer and hopefully, a dance class.
Meanwhile, I await spring and warmer temperatures with the excitement of a child on Christmas Eve.
