I dared to step on the scales today. Needless to say I'm quite a bit over but it will be down in a week or two.
I don't worry too much about weight gain during these gorging times. I am now experienced and understand my daily diet, and how to maintain it without suffering for it.
I did my first weigh-in of the year on Saturday, so now I have an idea of where I am and where I'm going. I'm thinking 10 lbs is the most reasonable loss to aim for by the end of 2024, but 15 would be just that much better. And that lowest weight would be a healthy one for me, I think, so I'm not too far off. I'm glad I'm not facing as large a goal as my mum once did - she needed to lose 50 lbs when I was about 11 or 12.
I actually found the exercise plan that Nurse Crane uses in Call the Midwife. I'm going to use it (slightly adjusted for me and not worrying about charts or anything) along with my weekday walks and weekend hikes. I should also continue to focus on protein and veggie/fruit intake, with a bit of bread but not all day long as I used to do... Hopefully that will curb my sweet tooth as well!
