Volume eating lowkey works

I was hungry and instead of eating a bunch of cookies I wanted, I cut up two cucumbers and I'm not even half way through and don't feel so hungry anymore :)

Omfg both points in this post are literally so real 😭 if I was taller I'd probably look more masc and not like just a girl with short hair 😔

I wish I was taller so I wouldn't have to lose so much.

Also I FUCKING WISH I WAS TALLER BCS NY HEIGHT MAKES ME SO DYSPHORIC.

I just have to not think abt it otherwise it'll actually eat me up 😭😮‍💨💔

Intro <3

It's the new year which means we have a clean slate to start or make more progress towards our goals!

My name is Alex and for me that's losing weight. I've always been "the big girl" and the way my weight sits on me takes away from my quality of life and doing the things I want to be able to do. There are literally so many exercises I physically can't do because of my fat getting in the way and I can't say how many times I've chosen not to go to events because I can't find any clothes to fit me the way I want them to. Other people who are big for their height can almost definitely relate to me here.

I'm really tired of it and I want a change, an actual real noticeable change. Though in 2024 I started to take small steps towards myself after leading a pretty sedentary life, I'm fully committed and choosing me in 2025.

Current habits (will update)

Min. 1.5L water/ day

Min. 8k steps/ day

Cardio 2-3x per week for min. 1 hour in the form of dance

Allowing myself only 4 sweet treats throughout the week (as a binging control)

Sleeping min. 7 hours everyday

Portion control

Reading and/or journaling for at least 30 mins every day

I know none of this seems like much but it's all in the small steps :)

Goals and stats

() 180 lbs

Current weight: 192lbs (honestly I haven't looked at my weight since a few months ago since scales make me anxious but in the spirit of accountability, I will do a weigh in soon)

() 170 lbs

() 155 lbs

() 140 lbs gw

The over achiever section

() 130 lbs

() 120 lbs

I'll reward myself with something any time I hit a goal within the next year. Realistically, I am determined to hit 140 by 2026 but not much below that. Those are there just in case I end up doing more than I think I will and will be what we work towards next year!

() 110 lbs ugw

Ok well yeah that's me! I am really excited for this and this blog is the only place I'm telling anyone I'm trying to lose weight this year so expect me to be somewhat active haha (also y'all's tips are super appreciated!). Whether or not you follow along, I hope you have a super great day!! ⭐
