I had a duh light bulb moment the other day.
I keep setting up goals and then failing to reach them. And then I feel like crap.
So I am not doing that any more.
My body is really rubbish at losing weight. But I find 5:2 completely doable and I am moving in the right direction. And that's all that matters really.
And my digital scales are reassuring me that my muscle is not only being retained by increasing on 5:2 so that's even better news.
And I feel much more inclined to exercise (long walks, internal training and some weights)and my fitness has improved substantially. Clothes are fitting better and overall I just feel more positive.
Today I did not get the number I hoped for because it's that time of the month when it goes up. But it hasn't gone up so I know I have a "disguised loss" waiting for me this coming week as long as I stay on track. So that's all good. I can wait.
