Weight control planning – Day 2/7 #weightcontrol

Monday started with an energetic OTF workout.  As I said yesterday, I have the first half of this week planned already.  Breakfast was modest, as will be lunch.  I plan a light dinner tonight. Today I have done some reading about weight loss and maintenance. The Difference Between Losing Weight And Keeping It Off and I’m an obesity doctor. I’ve seen long-term weight loss work. Here’s how. … the one common theme is that while maintaining their losses requires ongoing effort, that effort isn’t perceived by these weight loss masters as a hardship but rather as just living with new lifestyles, and lifestyles that they enjoy. Slower weight loss has less impact on resting metabolic rate also. My dietary and exercise changes are not negative, rather they represent a positive lifestyle change.  I feel better.  I can do more.  I have fewer pains. Tomorrow will be quite similar to today, but then Wednesday and Thursday will require some different adaptations.
