Matt's Diary

Your in the same boat as me. Gonna take some time I guess...I just figured out how to get past plateaus for myself. Protein and Fresh fruit have been boosting my mood as well so I'm pretty partial.

Yeah but hopefully not too much time lol. Good for you, hitting a plateau was what made me abandon dieting last time. My mood has been pretty much the same though I haven't been as tired and have felt better overall, not counting very recently.

Umm I'm not sure before day 1, but after day 1, cutting out fast food, Pepsi ( I slip up and have fast food and sweets once in a blue moon) and consuming less calories than I did before certainly helped. Of course a certain spoiled walker hound who loves her walks has helped also.

Cool, man! You lost all this weight completely differently than me... I followed a super strict paleo diet for 4 months and lost 40lbs. What's been the hardest part for you?
