3 days of counting macros and I am already down 3 pounds (which I realize is probably mostly water weight). Day one I felt hungry ALL of the time. I think that was mostly mental to be honest. I am getting significantly more calories now than I was when I was on the nutrisystem plan. In the last two days I have actually found that I haven’t been able to finish my meals. I think by the end of next week I will definitely have adjusted to the plan. That being said, I work tomorrow and the next day and I’m a little nervous about that. It’s so hard to avoid all of the snacks/temptations that you deal with at the nursing station! But I will bring my own snacks and food and focus on my goals.
My goals for my first full week on the meal plan are:
- Lose 5 pounds (so two more to go)
- Drink 2L of water a day (I’ve yet to reach that goal)
- Go to the gym 4x this week (minimum)
Let me know what you are doing meal plan/nutrition wise! I would love to hear your input!
