A follow up to my previous meme - https://lemmy.ca/post/58415099

All I’ve done is stop ordering takeout, stopped making giant suppers an hour before bed and just eat healthier and smaller meals in general. Also I only eat once per day at supper time, so I guess that’s intermittent fasting I think? Didn’t even plan to do it, but I’m feeling so much better about myself.

Also helps that I’ve never been a very food motivated person so it’s easy for me to ignore my stomach all day until supper. Now if I could just cut out alcohol I would be really happy with how I look. The one thing that’s making me stay a bit chubby 😭

    Hell yeah good work! And I get it on the alcohol part, I think when I abstained for a month i dropped like 10 pounds (that I gained back immediately after because summer is still stout season damnit) keep it up friend

          I completely get it, when you’re used to drinking booze constantly it’s hard to take a break.

          I’d be happy if I last till Wednesday tbh, I’m gonna do my best to have a sober week but it’s gonna be tough.

          All the best to you! All anyone can do is their best and learn from their mistakes.
