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.

It’s been over a month since I last wrote in my fitness blog. I weighed 299 pounds yesterday and 297 pounds this morning. My downfall was going to Walmart with my brother in law Mikela and buying $40 worth of junk food. I stayed on a junk food kick until this past weekend.

I decided that in an emergency if I needed to catch the bus I’m too out of shape now, so my goal is to lose weight and build muscle until I’m at a healthy body fat percentage and a healthy blood pressure. The bus stop is a mile and a half away, so at close to 300 pounds that’s too far for me right now.

I’ve been walking each morning for 20 minutes over the past two days, and I’ve started lifting weights again. I got a really good pump in my biceps today, they felt great! I did two sets with 35 pounds and four sets with 40 pounds.

I’ve stayed away from junk food for the past two days, and I’ve been watching Generation Iron videos I bought from iTunes for inspiration.

Pursuing extrinsic aspirations such as financial success isn’t as important as having a healthy body.
