On September 30, 2020, I weighed in at 166.6 pounds. Three and a half weeks later, the digital scale read back 156.6 pounds after a steady and consistent weight loss of about three pounds per week.
As I did in 2018, I tracked my daily caloric intake with an app and website called FatSecret. Any food I looked for, including most name brand items, already exists in their database, making daily food entries a breeze.
In the other eleven months, we normally abstain from alcohol for one week, and in 2020, I’ve limited myself to 60 servings of alcoholic beverages per month.
The not-so-secret secret to weight loss is to eat less and exercise more. When I lost 10 pounds, I ate less and continued to exercise, but actually a little bit less than I had before.
