One thing I find difficult at times is actually believing I have made progress. I don't consider myself to be pessimistic, well not in regards to weight loss. I know if I eat less than my calculated amount of calories I will lose weight, and if I do cardio and lift weights it will help speed up this weight loss/fat loss.
But for some reason I get mental blocks in my head that I am not making any progress. Don't get me wrong, I don't feel discouraged and I don't feel like reverting back to my bad eating habits and lack of exercise, I just don't feel like I am making progress.
Which is completely foolish of course, I have dropped down to under 100kg, shirts that I bought at the beginning of this year are beginning to get quite loose on me, when they were "form fitting" when I bought them. Also, every pair of jeans I own (sizing is 97/38 on the tag, whatever measure units that is) falls down if I do not wear a belt.
Despite all of this I find myself feeling like I have made zero progress, and I feel the only time I'll feel like I've accomplished anything is when my abdominals show and I have an adonis belt.
Friends & family have commented on my loss also.
I guess it's just one of those things, from what I have read a lot of people feel this way too.
Again it's nothing I get overly worked up about and it doesn't discourage me at all, it's just a nagging feeling I suppose.
