Duh...stop listening too all the advice out there!

July 5th
 
I'm finally reaching my goals. After two years, I listening to all different people, youtube videos, facebook groups...why can't I lose the weight even thou I'm working out like crazy and eating a clean diet. Duh, I finally found the formula. Over six years ago, I dropped 25 pounds in less than three months. To be honest, I couldn't remember how I did it. I did Chalean Extreme and did a lot of running and the weight came off. I thought I could do the same thing again but I was very wrong.
 
I tried all different plans, I initially loved the KETO diet but I got tried of all of the fat but overall...I lost weight but it turns out I ended up burning off all of my hard earned muscle.
 
So, I switched gears. I decided to go back to flexible dieting. Here's my formula. This works great, it's so simple and easy.
 
Bodyweight x 10
 
40 carbs, 30 fats, and 30 fats protein
 
protein only needs to be able .08 x bodyweight
 
My other tip, if you're losing weight and you're not sure if it's fat or muscle your our burning. Base it on whether your clothes are loser or the same. I remember, when doing Keto that the scale was moving down but my pant size was the same. Now, I'm following this new plan...my pants are getting too big on me. I'm now down one whole pant size~

No Sugar Diet!

It's working, the fat is finally melting off my body! I have been trying my hardest to lose the last bit of baby weight with no luck at all. I was literally killing myself in the gym and eating healthy and nothing was working. I spent a lot of time reading different blogs and watching lots of videos. No matter what I did, nothing was working. Well, I have come to realize that I'm older and what worked in the past isn't working anymore. I'm almost positive that I'm very much carb sensitive. I did the clean eating challenge and only lost like 2 lbs in 40 days. I still looked fat. Well, I decided to give Keto a try again and the fat is melting right off me. I couldn't be happier with my results. I'm working out less, but eating less as well which equals more time to do other things. I still have about 10 more pounds of fat to lose. I discovered that I need to eat around 1200-1400 calories and not a calorie more. I need to stay focus and let my body burn my own fat for fuel. Eating fat doesn't make you fat. Eating sugar will make you fat! I'm getting closer....to reaching my first goal of 132lbs. After that goal is reached, any weight loss after that will be a bonus but I really want to get down to 125lbs.

LCHC UPDATE

Update: Clean Eating got me no where, I realized that I have a problem with my blood sugars. I decided to go back to LCHC diet and the weight is starting to come off. I dropped closed to 3 pounds on my first week. I haven't worn this skirt in almost 4 years. I could finally get it on. I still need to loss another ten pounds in order to reach my goal. I'm older and my body is changing. I'm now, never hungry and I have to much energy. It's always important to listen to your body and not what some experts, only you know your body not someone else! I do miss fruit but a few berries seem to be helping.

Going Back To LCHP diet

I tried eating clean for the past 6 weeks, I still look the exact same. The scale hasn't change and neither has my measurements. I'm starting to think that something isn't right with my body. I did Keto diet back in October and I looked "HOT". I decided to stop doing that diet because I ran into some roadblocks and I freaked out. I ended up bruising really bad which I think my big problem was not getting enough protein. So, I'm going back to Keto diet and see how it goes. If the weight comes right off than I know my answer. I was border line GD with my last pregnancy and I think my body is just older and doesn't process sugar and carbs the same way anymore. I really enjoyed eating clean but no amount of cardio or working out was causing me to lose fat or gain muscle. I could barely see any changes, I did feel better but it's not enough. I still need to lose the last ten pounds. I still don't want to be super skinny. I have been working on this since Jan. I do feel stronger but I'm not losing any weight at all. I did finish my half marathon, I felt strong but I didn't lose any weight from it. I usually slim down when I'm running, which is another red flag that something isn't right. So, I'm going to eat as few carbs as possible and see what will happened. I predict that I will drop 3-4 pounds this week alone. I just need to stay strong.
