Not doing so well in this challenge. Will have to buckle down and find my motivation again. Since I got away from this challenge, my weight and blood sugars have increased. Since I broke my knee, friends have been staying with dad and I. John has taken over the kitchen and has become quite the dictator about our food and eating times. Can't wait till I am functional again to take back control. He has OCD big time and as much as I have told him, he still does things his way. He has even told me as long as he is here, he will do things his way. I can't wait till he goes home. Meanwhile, I'll just have to bide my time and do what I can.
Still working on the fasting 14 hrs a day. It's difficult when someone else is doing the majority of the cooking. I have wrestled with John over letting me make my own morning smoothies. But he has finally relented. Just because I am temporarily in a wheelchair, doesn't qualify me as incapable of doing things myself. Gives me a whole new perspective for the diamond disabled.
Well, my walk is on hold for 3 months. On the other ER hand, my 14 hr fasts are going great. Have lost 13 lbs since I broke my leg and it feels great. Sleeping better too. So will keep up with intermittent fasting and 8 hrs of sleep nightly.
It is a very hard time but I decided to start again.
๐Result of 10 days of DIET ๐ฅ: I finished the ten days of diet with only vegetables and fruits. Physically I feel much better than before. My mind is also better, more responsive. It's just the beginning. Overall, I lost almost two kg. I think it's a good result!๐ช๐
I am so sad to gain alot of weight, but i will start from today ๐ช

I'm a foodie of sorts, must admit.
This is a Sweet Potato Rosti, with a bit of quark and cheese filling. Ah, the wonders of having to find a solution for the lack of eggs at home๐
So apparently this is a safe space. I'm 21, musician, dancer, actress. My weight skyrocketed after taking a certain medicine that slowed down my metabolism. I now have about three months to lose almost 10kg and figured that putting the journey out there would give me motivation to go on.
Avocado, avocado, avocado; yep, just keep repeating those words, itโs like music to my ears! This green, creamy fruit is like a glorious emerald jewel in the world of food! Hands up if you agree!
Admit Your Weaknesses.
Itโs so easy to be great nowadays, because everyone else is weak. If you have ANY mental toughness, if you have any fraction of self-discipline; The ability to not want to do it, but still do it; If you can get through to doing things that you hate to do: on the other side is GREATNESS โ โ David Goggins
