I have lost 15 pounds so far through diet only, which goes to show how awful my eating habits were š
Iāve worked on portion control, not eating after dinner, and only drinking water. I should be really proud of those 15 pounds but that little voice in the back of my head says I could have lost more, which I definitely could have! In fact in past diets I have lost significantly more. The problem is that wasnāt sustainable. With what Iām doing now Iām not withholding any foods from myself, Iām just lessening the amount which will be way more sustainable in the long run. This month Iāll be working on a mental goal by trying to tell that little voice that slow and steady wins the race š¢

- WEEK 1 Workouts: Feel free to post what you're doing!
One thing that keeps me motivated is having videos to help me train. There are so many gimmick and quick fixes out there but it really comes down to consistency over time.
I've really grown to love to channel Tiff X Dan (Picture on this post). They have hundreds (If not thousands) of workouts! Doing a workout is as easy as starting up a video and then following along.
Right now I'm doing 4 workouts a day (Stretching, core, yoga, weights). This may seem extreme but most of the workouts are 15-20 minutes and stretching/yoga are low intensity.

Hi everyone! This is my first DietBet and hoping Iām not overdoing it by jumping into a transformer! Iām really good at losing weight for a short time, but then really bad at sticking with it after the first month or two š
Iām hoping this will help keep me going for more long term changes!
