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. |
| Losing weight is like playing tug of war. You gain some ground, then lose it all and go back to where you started. Over and over again, this process repeats itself. I think the key is to set boundaries, and not allow yourself to go above a certain weight after losing ground. So if I start at 290 and my record low is 259 pounds and I get down to 235, then I shouldn’t allow myself to get above 249. Every time I lose weight and gain some back, I need to set a boundary like this. This is the only way to make progress, because losing some ground is inevitable. I’ve bumped it up to an hour of walking before breakfast, I can really feel the difference compared to walking for 40 minutes in the morning before breakfast. My weight has remained stable for too long, so I’m cutting out guacamole and ordering Chia seeds to put in my oatmeal instead. That should also save me some money. I was going to skip my walk on Thursday, but changed my mind and decided to go. I wonder how long it will take to see results? Here is my weight loss plan: June 2025: -4 pounds 288 by the end of June July 2025: -4 pounds 284 by the end of July August 2025: -4 pounds 280 by the end of August September 2025: -4 pounds 276 by the end of September October 2025: -4 pounds 272 by the end of October November 2025: -6 pounds 266 by the end of November December 2025: -6 pounds 260 by the end of December January 2026: -8 pounds 252 by the end of January February 2026: -8 pounds 244 by the end of February March 2026: -8 pounds 236 by the end of March I hope to stick to this template! |

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.
