SV: 5kg lost (discuss.tchncs.de)

Starting from June 6th I have now lost 5kg on the scale. And this after a 3 week vacation where I wasn’t able to weigh most foods and instead tried to moderate consumptions.

My strategy was to opt for salads when eating out, we had a rental apartment with a mini kitchen and there I prepared instant soup in e evening and broccoli’s cauliflower every other day.

I also indulged into cheese (directly from the cheese dairy three houses up the street), had some ice cream (not every day), and occasionally an Aperol Spritz.

Way to go! It’s hard sticking with it when you are vacationing.

5Kg may seems like a small number, but I just thought about how big a 5Kg pile of flesh is. Holy hell.

I imagine it to be like 2 bottles of water and 3 bottles of oil or something (with bottles of 1 liter), or a 1 gallon jug.

I remember reading about a German TV host who lost weight and every week would fill up the total weight lost as water in two buckets and walk around the house with them just to get a feeling for the weight.

You did great!

Remember to follow a diet you can keep up in the long run. 5 kilos in 3.5 months is ready a lot, don’t crash and burn and don’t overdo it, but be proud of your achievements!

This is a great victory (assuming you are overweight)
