Day 29 - Month 1 Review


MONTHLY SUMMARY -
Weight Lost - John: 8.2kg (18.07lbs) Sawa: 5.5kg (12.12lbs)

Wow, that's all I can say.  One month and I'm down over 8kg, Sawa 5 and a half.  When you think about it, one month isn't long at all.  I've spent more time wondering how to lose weight or trying to decide whether or not to start dieting.  The best thing we did was just start it, and stick to it.

I think this is a huge motivation, to see your results like that and realize it is working, without that much effort.  First month's advice for anyone trying out would be just to keep trying new things.  Go different ways on your walks so you don't get bored, try to make some new dishes.  And most of all, be prepared.  Don't find yourself without the proper food, because that's when temptation can set in and cause problems. 
Also, I think we stayed pretty much on the diet. One day we at the McDonalds, another day we went out for dinner at the Chinese restaurant. But it was only one meal at a time, and we always ate a bit more strictly on the next day.  Don't get discouraged with small gains.  They're mostly water, I think, and end up coming off quickly. 
Can't wait to see what next month brings!

Day 21 - Week 3 Review

WEEKLY SUMMARY
Weight Lost - John: 0.6kg (1.32lbs) Sawa: 0.4kg (0.88lbs)

This was a real yo-yo of a week for me. I went up and down and up and down, and finally only ended up losing about .6 kilos, which all came off on the last day. I don't know what it was, if my body was finally getting adjusted to the protein only diet, but seems it's still working. I'll take -.6Kg any day over +.6kg.  Sawa did great as well. She almost dropped a pound this week. Again, I'm really impressed with this diet.
