My journey from fat to fit!

I’ve been trying to lose fat and get fit for a long time. This will be my blog about my fitness journey!

When a lot of people go from extremely fat to healthy and fit, they usually leave a lot out of their story. For instance, in online articles someone might have one paragraph describing when they were 300 pounds and sneaking fast food on their way home before eating a regular dinner with their family, then in the next paragraph they’re out running 5K’s and 10K’s.

I want to show the fitness journey from beginning to end, with a lot of details and the philosophical outlook I’ve come up with on my own to guide me on my fitness journey. Hopefully, my experience can help others.

I’ve thought for a long time that since I don’t have work or school, I have nothing better to do with my time than train with weights. Now that October is here, I can actually apply this philosophy, because I’m starting Liftober.

Up until recently, I’ve been focusing on doing cardio by walking for an hour each morning before breakfast. Lifting weights by targeting a different muscle group every 48 hours sounds like a great plan to gradually get back into lifting.

I hit 277 pounds on Tuesday, and when I checked my blood pressure, it was one of the highest readings since getting the blood pressure monitor. I ate pizza two days before, and two breakfast sandwiches and two hash browns from a fast food place the day before.

Several journal entries ago, I mentioned buying steak, but I decided not to buy it any more because side it made my blood pressure go up. I was planning on buying chocolate milk, but scratched that off of my grocery list because of my high blood pressure.

I did a leg workout for the first day of Liftober, then on October 2nd I wanted to have macaroni and cheese with ground turkey, so I trained legs a second day in a row. I went from 277 pounds in Tuesday, September 29th to 274 pounds on Friday, October 3rd.
