October Weight Loss Review

October was tough. But it was a great start. To be honest, I started without a clear plan. I thought I would just start my weight loss journey once again anyway and figure out the plan as I go. I'm not regretting that I didn't have a clear plan at the start. I still feel that it was a huge step for me to stand up again and just walk a step at a time.

Now that we are approaching November, I'm ready to implement a few more steps to my weight loss plan. In October, I realized that every calorie counts, even veggies and fruits. I've started counting every single calorie I eat. For example, I ate exactly 353 calories this morning: 4 egg whites, 1 whole egg, mixed veggies, 1 tbsp of olive oil, 2 slices of mini pita, and a cup of detox tea.

I will be using my food journal until I get a clear sense of what I'm eating constantly. So in November, I will try to be more systematic with my weight loss plan and hope to cross my 200 lb borderline for the first time in many years and stay under 200 lbs.

Two weeks ago, I lost 5 lbs and I gained a little bit last week. I was worried that 5 lbs that I lost was temporary, but looks like it was real. Although I didn't meet my goal by a pound in October, I have high hopes for November.
