It seems my weight loss is slowing down. After that big drop to 56.5 kg last week, I haven't really loss anymore weight. In fact I saw my weight crept back to the 57's over the weekend (damn weekends!) I knew this is going to happen, afterall I'm already in the healthy BMI range so it is to be expected. Still the fluctuations this past 8 days doesn't make me too happy.

The last few days I feel like I'm becoming too obsessive with the weight loss. I tried to relax over the weekend, as I set weekends as my rest days. I went out for a long walk around Limburg with my husband and had a very nice time, but still I can't shake off the weight loss thoughts. I don't like this.

I did another full fast yesterday, and it brought me back to the 56's kg, so that's a good thing. But mentally I still feel slightly defeated. I want my weight to just keep going down, no jumps like now. I know it's an unrealistic expectation though.

Last night I kept thinking whether I should do another full fast today. Logically I don't think it will do me any good though. I know I shouldn't over do it and be patient. In any diet plan, weight loss doesn't happen over night. Wasn't it me who posted the article in the forum about not over doing it?? I should know better. Patience.

Arr... I feel so messed up in my head now.

What I need now is to stick with a plan. Since I started this, I've been kinda winging it, not sticking to any schedule or plan. Doing 16:8 worked well for me in the beginning, but I tend to mess up a bit during the weekend. And it seems that doing one full fast on Monday helps to balance out the weekend splurge. So my plan from now on to do a combination of 6:1 and 16:8. Full fast on Monday, 16:8 Tuesday - Friday, rest days Saturday - Sunday. I will do this for the rest of the month and assess at the end of October.

Yosh!!
