Hello! Not sure if anyone’s still active on this forum but regardless I’m just looking for a place where I can do daily check-ins and hold myself accountable.
Intro
Hi, my name is Peppa and I’m a lifelong yo-yo dieter. I grew up a chubby kid, got fit as a teenager, then went from fat to skinny on an annual basis as I tried out so many different diets. For the past year, I’ve found that extended water fasting is the most sustainable and easy approach for me so I’m continuing that until I reach my goal weight.
Why
I want to feel confident in my own skin and do this for my health and those around me.
Goals:
I’ve just come off a whole month of bingeing so I’m not going to check until my first October 23rd milestone (my 30th birthday).
My ultimate goal is to lose 3-4 inches off my waistline and get my weight down to 97lbs - I am barely 4’9" so this is a healthy BMI and an achievable goal for my body. I am probably somewhere between 125-135lbs right now.
What are some struggles you face or you have faced in the past
Making excuses to derail my progress such as having a cheat day at a party or telling myself it’s the last time I binge and I’ll start again on Monday. No more excuses, every day counts.
What is your game plan?
I will be water fasting from the 5th of October to the 23rd of October when I plan to break my ~19 day fast. I haven’t decided about the plan afterwards. I might do something like ADF or OMAD or one 3-day fast per week. Typical intermittent fasting doesn’t work well for me.
I will be using the template below for my daily check-ins.
