Week 7 in my deficit đŞ
Average weight this week: 67.1kg
Starting weight (9th Sept): 68.3kg đ
This week I was delighted to see the scales creep under 67 and show 66 for the first time! My new goal is for my average to stay in the 66s next week. Progress may be gradual, but it's definitely happening! đđť
This week was all about consistencyâI stayed on track with my food, hit my steps, and nailed my workouts (even though I didnât get a run in). Since starting this deficit 7 weeks ago, my average weight has been trending down steadily.
Is it slower than I would have liked? Maybe, but I'm embracing it. No extreme measures, no starving myself, no feelings of âbeing on a dietââI am on a balanced, enjoyable journey that doesnât make me feel like Iâm missing out on life. This is exactly the kind of approach I want to encourage for all of you.đŤ
If you look at my weight graph (pic 3), you can see those ups and downsâfluctuations that can feel disheartening in the moment. But looking at the bigger picture, the overall trend is clearly downwards. Itâs a reminder that the weight loss isnât always going to be linear, itâs about consistency and trusting the process.
Physically, Iâm seeing so many changes other than the numbers. My waist has visibly slimmed down, my stomach feels flatter, and my glutes are becoming rounder and more defined.
This deficit for me has been about rebuilding confidence, bringing up my self esteem and becoming fitter and happier during the process. If you're going through the same thing, please rememberâyour progress might have ups and downs too, but youâve got this, keep going!! The results will come! đĽ°
