Weekly Weigh-In 8 Lbs Lost First Week of Diet

Weighed myself on Saturday and lost 8 lbs my first week dieting. I ended up going with intermittent fast waiting roughly 36 hours between meals. I'm doing juice fasts and only consuming vegetable or fruit juice during fasting times.

For the most part I've been eating really clean. Main staples have been fruits, salads, rice and chicken. I was a little heavy on the rice, but still managed to drop a few pounds so I'm OK with that.

My previous weigh-in was 308 lbs. Saturday morning I weighed in at 300 or 300.7 to be exact so i actually lost just under 8 lbs. Still, I'll take it. I'm very happy with my first week results.

The last time I was doing hardcore dieting, I combined keto with intermittent fasting. This time I'm going to try to combine clean eating with intermittent fasting and compare the results. Considering the results from the first week, I'd be really happy if I didn't have to give up so many carbs. Keto was awesome, but it was a real pain at times. On top of that, you really can't cheat at KETO at all.

I had my usual weekend cheat days Saturday while watching the football game and a couple small cheats on Sunday. Right back at it again come Monday now. As soon as football season is over I'm going to cool it with the cheat days. After the super bowl, I'll be going really hardcore until spring arrives.

My goal right now is to lose a nice chunk of weight by June. I'd like to be around 250 by June 1st. I'll have to average at least 10 lbs lost per month from now till then.

Well, I'm in my 50s now and I don't think a transformation like this is possible but I can dream! 🤣
