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. |
| When I went shopping last week I bought two pints of ice cream, and I think that having it and eating it helps because once it’s gone, I can’t have any more until I go shopping again. That allows me to go longer without sweets so I can lose more weight and still give in to cravings without going overboard. If I had a steady supply of ice cream my weight would go up or stay around the same, but by having small amounts, my weight spikes then goes back down. Eventually I would like to eliminate sweets completely, or to get as close to that ideal as I can. I would also like to avoid eating pizza. If I visualize winning the natural Mr. Olympia, it makes me want to take my diet more seriously. I bought bananas and froze some of them, that’s a lot better than thinking about ice cream because I can make protein shakes with them. I hit my lowest weight of the year so far on Thursday, July 17th. I was 283.6 pounds, and Friday, July 18th I was 283.4 pounds. |

has oddly set off a motivating dopamine reaction that gets me going. Weights I can do at the house when I wake up or before bed. I'd like to be able to walk more, but my schedule is not that wide open where I can walk consistently. Right now I'm fighting a touch of a cold that's settled in my throat/sinus area so weights are good for me now. I'm also tracking on Weight Watchers since I started last DEC. While, I'm happy with my tracking habits, I do need to focus on more zero or 1 point foods. I agree - getting in shape is 90% diet. Sending you good vibes for meeting your goals.
