0.000 HBDBianca's weight loss journey: first week [part 2]
It's been 6 days since I wrote my last post. I could have written more, but I decided to wait one week to see how I'd conduct myself after my first step to this journey. First, a lot of people in my social circle had read my post, most of them super positive towards my decision, which made me really glad. That keeps me strong on my purpose, because they are always remiding me about my challenge - it's like having an alarm telling what must be done. I love it, it's great to see that many people care. Second, everybody has a recipe to lose weight. Yep, I know I asked for tips and support, but I've had so many those days. Eat more this, eat less that, don't eat, eat every two hours. Ahhhhhh! - that's me screaming. I confess, I hate when people tell me what to do, but I'm trying my best to be positive. This way, I'm absorbing the things that I can apply on my diet. ---------------  *Some of the meals I had this week.* ------------- The worse so far is the new trend diet: Low Carb. My friends are aparently afraid of carbs, many of them can't stop talking about it. Die carbs, die. Well, it's true I tried this diet, and it's also true some people get amazing results. But not me! I did for around 2 months, and I only lost 800g. Yeah! So frustrating, all the pasta and rice sacrificed for nothing. Later I learnt it doesn't usually work for hypothyroid patients, which must be said, I am one. Back on the numbers, third. I haven't drank soda for a while. One week! It surely feels like 7 years. I'm addicted to soda, I can't say I love it, because I stopped drinking it so many times, but I love drinks with bubbles, I'm addicted to the them. This way I'm drinking sparkling water and it's working just fine. I had juice in the past two days, since I'm a Diabetes Insipidus child, I need to drink lots more to keep myself hydrated and my blood pressure stable. -------------  *image of pain and tears* -------------- And to finish, I want to mention my biggest struggle this week. Going out with friends it's so damn hard now. Not only I have to contain myself on my orders, as I have to see them eating delicious food. Last week on Friday I had nachos in a bar (where I only drank one beer), I could simply eat that by myself cos it wasn't that big, but I shared with other three friends. On sunday I went to the park and everyone was loaded with burgers and hot dogs, I decided just having some bites from my boyfriend. It works, but it also gives me a feeling of emptiness. :( For now, what I can only say is that I'm addapting myself to a more organized diet, so this past week worked like a detoxification period. In the next week that starts tomorrow, I want to define my food, time, and emergency snacks and recipes for moments where I am lost. It is definitly easier to say than to do, but I'm so happy for doing it somehow. That's all for now, hope you enjoyed and thank you for reading! B
