So as you've probably already known (because of my title). I'm going to try something new when it comes to my weight loss. I'm going to try the 16/8 intermittent fasting thing. It's where you don't eat for 16 hours out of a 24 hour period and eat for the other 8 as you normally would. So pretty much if I eat dinner at 8 pm I don't eat anything until noon the next day. So pretty much skip breakfast. Or eat it later and a smaller amount.
I'll still be watching my calorie intake to make sure that I'm not undoing anything that I'm accomplishing during those 16 hours. From what I've read women should do it more like 14/10 or 15/9. I think I'm going to aim for the full 16/8 though. I've not eaten anything yet today so I'm going to see how much I weight and I'll be blogging my progress hopefully every day.
Even if I don't put it up here I'll be keeping some notes through out the day. I've got a fresh new notebook for it. In it I have my rules that I'll follow and a list of drinks that have no calories. I'll probably stick to water and hot herbal tea for the most part. I am starting this today since I don't remember when I ate my dinner yesterday.
So to start I am starting with a weight of 245.6. That's not too bad actually. My current goal will be to reach 240. Small goals are part of my deal always. I'll only be weighing in once a week on Thursdays. My main goal will still be 175. So here's hoping.
