Post-Holiday Reset: My Updated Habits and Tracking Methods for Weight Loss I’ve updated my habits and tracking methods post-Christmas. After seeing a few unflattering photos and feeling uncomfortably full from a week of indulgences, it’s clear I need to commit to weight loss. Right now, I’m determined to stay accountable. To help me stay on track, I’ll be sharing weekly updates with screenshots of my progress. Here’s an overview of my approach: Calorie Goals and Adjustments I’m aiming to consume around 1,700 calories per day (without any exercise adjust,emts) to achieve a weight loss of approximately 2 pounds per week. I’ve also recently started taking creatine ( https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/10-benefits-of-creatine) , which may cause temporary water retention, so I’m giving myself a one-week buffer before expecting to see weight changes.

Chat GPT is amazing

ChatGPT is an incredible tool for crafting quick, effective solutions, and meal planning is no exception. In just 30 seconds, I created a whole-food-based meal plan tailored for either two or three meals a day, with a total calorie count of 1,800 (which i estimate I need to lose 2lbs a week).

Whether you prefer fewer, larger meals or more frequent smaller ones, this meal plan is designed to keep you feeling full and energized throughout the day. Below, you'll find two variations of the plan—one for two meals a day and one for three meals a day. Each option prioritizes balance, including lean proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates. These meals are perfect for anyone looking to maintain a calorie-controlled diet while enjoying delicious and nourishing whole foods.    Here’s a sample 1800-calorie plan for both 2 meals per day and 3 meals per day focusing ...

NYE 2024!

 Why Habit Stacking Works: My Morning and Evening Routines I am referencing James Clear, author of Atomic Habits , once again. He emphasizes that New Year’s resolutions often fail because they rely on motivation rather than systems. By linking new habits to existing ones, I’ve created morning and evening rituals that support my health, productivity, and well-being. Here’s a glimpse into my habit stacks and why they work. The Power of Habit Stacking The beauty of these routines lies in their simplicity and consistency. Each habit builds on the previous one, creating a flow that becomes almost automatic over time. For example, stepping outside in the morning naturally leads to brushing my teeth, and reading at night cues me to take my medicine and prepare for the next day. By designing my routines around habit stacking, I’ve taken the guesswork out of daily decisions, allowing me to focus my energy on more important tasks. If you’re struggling to maintain your own resolutions or rout...
