Well, last week was disappointing. Let's make this week a good one since week 2 was unsatisfactory lol~
Here we are, already at week 3. While week 1 was pretty decent, week 2 turned out to be a massive disappointment. Weight kept going up and down and only went down on the last day. Let's make sure things are a bit better this week. I think what I learnt from last week is to be mindful eating the last meal of the day. Keep on top of calories and don't eat too late, which is essential if you want to see a difference on the scale in the morning.

Week 3 Day 1
Weight: 0 kg (0 kg weekly total; -1.2 kg total).

Lunch: homemade veggie soup with 2 plant based sausages and a dollop of soya yoghurt; 1 digestive biscuit, 1 clementine.
Dinner: homemade veggie soup with a dollop of soya yoghurt; 500ml lager.
Total calories: ~1155 kcal.

Dinner: ramen noodles.
That's so unhealthy and 400+ calories in one pack. Not my usual choice of dinner but it took us an hour to get home after the event and we came home really late. Tiredness got the better of us. 😩
Total calories: ~1070 kcal.
Workout: no workout but done a lot of walking and lifting things around during the event. My workout watch estimated that I've burned ~300+ calories within the evening.
Week 3 Day 4
Weight: -1 kg (-1.6 kg weekly total; -2.8 kg total).
OMG I can't believe I've lost one kilo overnight! I even had ramen around 1am last night. 🥲 I really thought this will ruin it. But crazily enough everything worked out amazing! Almost 3kg overall loss and I hit another milestone! Only 0.4 kg until Milestone 3. Really excited.

Current weight loss rate is 0.81 kg per week and the estimated goal reach is in 8 months. Getting there!
Breakfast: 3/4 of a cup of roasted potatoes with 2 scrambled eggs, kimchi and a bit of tomato ketchup.
In the next couple of days I'll be eating weird stuff (as in, not my usual foods), because we have a lot of leftovers from the event and I don't believe in food waste lol. It is all pretty calorific so I'll just be eating small portions of things.
Lunch: smoked salmon with Crème Fraîche and rocket mix on toast, Pommes Anna, small cube of stuffing (private event leftovers).
Dinner: lemon tart.
So, technically the lemon tart wasn't a dinner but a dessert after lunch. I just wasn't really hungry and didn't eat dinner lol.

Workout: no workout today.

I managed to achieve 1 milestone and my current weekly weight loss rate is 0.94 kg, which predicts that I'll reach my final goal in 7 months! Stay tuned for week 4!
