Whats Working ?

• Tracking food, exercise (including housework & sex) in the Lose App has been keeping me accountable and motivated.

• Water Intake I fill a 4 (20 oz.) sports bottles up a day and know that’s what I need to finish.

• Finding Fun Ways to Exercise: I started doing 1 day a week country line dancing I can dance for 3 hours but I hate the gym after 10 mins. We have also been doing Disneyland 1 day week walking for 6 hrs goes by so fast.

• Finding Low Carb Alternatives:

• Beers / Drinks

• Chip Alternatives : Chicharrones

What I am having a hard time with ?

Believe it or not eating enough FAT . There is only so much bacon , protein style burgers I can have in a week. All I have been craving is a smoothie and a strawberry milkshake which before this milkshakes were not my thing.

Looking at the the DAM scale every day I need to stop. Losing inches means more to me than LBS. I am not losing LBS as fast of most people say they do on blogs/ YouTube but I am still losing so sticking it out.
