Yet Another Post About Losing Weight

Published in Diet and Fitness - 2 mins to read

I am going to get to under 83kg if it is the last thing I do. Well, not quite, because I am similarly determined to achieve my goal through healthy means, so ideally it will not even be close to the last thing I do, but you know what I mean.

Whenever I write one of these posts, I am acutely aware of how many predecessors they have, in both blog and oral form. I must sound deluded at this point, long past the point of naivete. The question is, as always, what am I going to do differently? I am still convinced that if I try enough strategies, one will eventually work for me.

There are a couple of answers this time. The first two are relatively small and easy - to try to meal prep larger portions (so less potential to snack/binge outside of these) and to try to apply second-order thinking to the problems of dieting. The biggest change, undoubtedly the most difficult to enact but equally the most likely to produce meaningful results, is to better handle the emotions that cause my frequent bouts of comfort eating, which for the past few months has been stress. My specific stress-reduction plan will have to wait for another day though, as I have a plane to catch!
