Hello BBB Family, I hope everyone is doing well. First of all, a huge thank you to every single one of you who joined the Global June Walking Challenge. You made it such a special and memorable event. Thank you for showing up, even on tough days, for setting goals, and for taking those small walks. Even though I was in hibernation mode during the third week of June to recuperate, I’ve been quietly reading every post and cheering you all on. I’m so proud of each of you! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🫶🏼🙌🏼 On a more personal note, I want to apologise for going quiet during my recent trip back to Singapore and since returning to Europe. To be honest, I have something to confess. During this road trip in cold weather, I really struggled with food. My body was constantly craving more calories than I should have, and I ended up indulging every day — cakes and pastries became my daily treat for nearly two weeks. As a result, I gained back all the weight and body fat I had worked so hard to lose over the past 160 days… in just 30 days. It’s been eye-opening and honestly quite frustrating. Losing the weight took months of consistent effort, discipline, and sacrifice. Watching it come back so quickly in only a month has left me feeling regretful, lethargic, and a bit disappointed in myself. I’m still learning how to manage my appetite in cold weather — something I never had to deal with before moving to Europe.🙊 That said, I’m not letting this defeat me. I know exactly what to do: go back to my proven plan — strict three meals + one dessert, careful calorie tracking, more runs, and weight training. I’ll get it off again. To anyone else who has gained a little (or a lot) recently: please don’t skip meals, don’t punish yourself, and don’t spiral into negativity. We have 365 days in a year. 80% eating well and 20% enjoying fun meals is still a huge success. Nobody is perfect. What matters most is not how fast we lose the weight, but building habits we can maintain for the rest of our lives — for better health, energy, and mobility as we get older.
